Supper is always an adventure around here and never boring. There tends to be a circus act every night. Whether it's food flying from one side of the table to other, faces made at each other, or face painting with whatever food that was served. What happens is, one of the boys will do something that makes the other laugh. So of course, the laughter only encourages more action. There is also alot of "monkey see, monkey do" at the table. And then there is "monkey get in trouble too" or in our case, "monkeys get in trouble two".
JB and I try to keep a sense of humor during supper and not let it become a frustrating experience every night. However, there are nights when it does get frustrating especially when you are trying to balance discipline with a pleasant eating experience. We don't want the boys to think they can perform their circus acts and not learn manners and appropriate behavior at the dinner table, especially when we have guests or out in public. Oh well, at least this entertainment is free.
Until next time...."Step right up folks, step right up...come enjoy the Brothers Bond Supper Circus....HB
