Dinner Table Rule #2

I know most people who do these sorts of blogs post funny stuff their kids say but I'm going to make an exception and post something my wife said.

Last week we instituted three rules for dinner time behavior one of which is to not talk with your mouth full.

Several nights later as Nicole was attempting to jog Caitlin's memory she informed Caitlin that we are not to talk with our mouth open. Caitlin looked at Nicole funny and I started laughing. Soon we all joined in the laughter and had a little fun trying to talk with our mouths closed (you try it- I'll bet you'll find it quite humorous).

All of this made me thankful for my family and particularly for my wife and her humility displayed in being willing to laugh at herself.
