Family Suppers

So I guess since  I am about to become a mom I am beginning to notice a few things. One being that this day and age you dont see families sitting down for supper anymore. I know that day to day gets the best of us and our schedules dont always allow this but I think that this is important. When me and my father are both home we will take the time to sit down and eat together. We talk about whats been going on in our lives and just chit chat. I think tvs, ipods, and cell phone should be put away and familes should sit there and talk. Seems like everything is different. I think at a young age that children should be taught that when it is time to eat you eat. If you dont eat then you wont eat till the next meal. No snacks & No fits! I see all the time that kids eat junk and then when it comes to realy food they are not hungry but then get candy and hour later. I just dont get it. I guess you could call me old fashioned but when a child gets to a certain age they should be taught this. I know that when Colton is born and gets to a certain age he will sit down and eat when its time and I dont want to hear any complaining. I think that sitting down with your families for meals is definitely important and brings a family alot closer.
