Matt brings Liam to the table and puts him in his chair. We say a prayer on the food. I forget a few things so I get them and bring them back to the table. At that point Liam motions for us to say another prayer. Then just for the fun of it when we are almost done with dinner he motions again to say another prayer, so we oblige. They are usually quick prayers like "Thank you for this carrot. Amen."

prayers and cheers
Dinner and lunch time usually go something like this:
Matt brings Liam to the table and puts him in his chair. We say a prayer on the food. I forget a few things so I get them and bring them back to the table. At that point Liam motions for us to say another prayer. Then just for the fun of it when we are almost done with dinner he motions again to say another prayer, so we oblige. They are usually quick prayers like "Thank you for this carrot. Amen."
And this is what happens if we don't oblige at the exact time Liam would like. His spirituality gets the better of him sometimes.
In between prayers, he likes to "cheers" his drink.
Needless to say, dinner takes awhile around here and Liam doesn't mess around with his prayers. That's a-okay by us.

I love it! Eden loves to do cheers too! She is pretty good for the prayer part but many times her hunger gets the better of her and I will see her reach and try to shove a fork full of food in her mouth with arms in a still semi folded position.
PS~We need to get together sometime soon neighbor!:)
