Table talk, Good food, and Togetherness!

Last night was a little chilly  … but we still ate outside picnic style at our favorite taco shop.  Around the table folks were chatting in Chinese and in English.  We shared laughter and hugs.

Tonight we ate inside … around our dining room table … again conversations in Chinese and in English.  Tonight we had the added benefit of toddler talk too!

I am so grateful for my family.  I love how we make time to gather around the table together – at least once a week.  I love how we have multiple generations.  I’m grateful that my Dad is able to travel, to visit us often, to spend time with his great grandsons.  Tonight four generations were represented … each of us enjoying the lively conversation and good food.

Our sons, their wives, the grandbabies (not babies anymore since Dylan will be TWO in a week) bring so much joy to our lives.  And they all like to cook … each one has his or her own specialty that they serve enthusiastically.  Tonight it was Brad’s night to shine in the kitchen.  But Damen, Abby, and Jason all take their turns with delicious meals!

Table talk, good food, time spent together … enlarges my heart with gratitude!
