In which I stumble onto a New Year's Resolution

In 2016 my family will be eating supper together.

Well, whoever is home will all sit down together. No feeding the children while I do housework, or Bruce eating on a tray in our room if it is a normal person meal time.

We got out of the routine because I'm not usually hungry when the children are. Days Bruce was working I'd just feed them while I did something else, like nurse the baby. So the new house rule I'd that everyone sits at the table, including Baby. Even if you don't eat, you sit.

That is a good resolution! We have the same rule -- everyone sits at the table, eating or not. Still working on the "no phones / toys at the table" rule ... which I am guilty of.
