A quick moment from our table

One rainy evening our dinner table was feeling a little restless.

I grabbed a card from the counter and said, “Hey, I’ve got a question for everyone.”

One kid jumped in immediately. Another started thinking hard. Then someone answered, and suddenly we were all laughing.

Follow-up questions started flying. Even my husband relaxed.

Dinner flowed because the kids were curious.
