Picture is from my phone.
I am so excited to be part of the first engagement in this week. It's been an awesome time out here. I want to use this platform to appreciate the entire management for their efforts in ensuring the consistency in making this a reality.
Family is everything and everything is family. Any one without family is like a tree without roots. The role of family can't be overemphasized. Permit me to say that every criminal you see today comes from a family is just that such family isn't responsible or careless.
When I saw this topic, I was so excited and anxious to drop my input because of what I have enjoyed thus far in my family.
Growing up from the family of six, I saw all manners of love and care in reality. Family dinner is a challenge for some however everyone is entitled to what he wants. There are lots of benefits that is attached to family dinner. In this post, I would share how family dinner has transformed us and made marks that we can't be in haste to forget.
Someone said when a purpose of a thing is not known, abuse is inevitable. I am quite sure if many would have know these benefits, they wouldn't have been where they are now even though some don't want to stay together as family due to religion or other factors.
Family dinner entails the coming together of father, Mother and the children to eat together at home. Sometimes it might be at the same time whereas others same time but different locations. When I was staying with parents, I discovered that most at times breakfast and dinner are normally done at the same time. My mother would prepare the meal and serve us then in the evening we normally eat in a tray together. All of us in the house strategically positioned ourselves and eat. When it's about to finish, the elder ones will leave it for we the younger ones. This really foster unity and strengthen our bonds together. I became used to it such that I practice similar thing with my wife and kids.
Do we all eat together?
Oh yes we eat together whenever all of us are available at home. In an event where others are engaged with other tasks, those around will eat. Presently, I enjoyed eating with family and my kids always like me feeding them. This has really made us to unite together. I noticed that even if you don't have strong appetite to eat you'll be motivated by others as you see them eating.
Eating together as a family gives opportunity for everyone to express himself. It also creates good timeout where you catch fun and feel relaxed.
Eating and relating with my family is the best thing i enjoy doing always.
would I like to change this?
I am not thinking of changing this at all because of the positive transformation it has brought to us as individuals and collectively as a family.
