Need some advice about table manners.

SD9 has terrible table manners, chewing with her mouth open, leaning over the table and dragging her hair in her plate, using the tablecloth instead of a napkin, etc. We provide reminders but nothing seems to stick. Any tips on methods that have worked for others?

Days like today make it all worth it

FSD7 got her ears pierced over the summer and was super excited to change her earrings when she was all healed. I bought her a lovely pair of earrings with her birthstone for Christmas but she has been reluctant to remove her starter earrings. Nervous it's going to hurt, etc. Tonight she came into our bedroom with the earrings and said that she really wanted to wear them but that she was scared to take out her other earrings. I asked her if she wanted me to help. She said "NO!!! I'll do it."

FDH told SD7 tinight that we are getting married. She was really excited but then looked puzzled and said "why?". He said "we'll. because we love each other and we want to be together forever, want to be a family and to be partners in everything". She said "But you're already partners." Do you love it? That little girl has viewed our relationship as a partnership before that word was ever used. Smart, that one.

SO is now FIANCÉ!!!

What is the abbreviation for that? Smile

Was on the road for 11 days for work. Took the red-eye home last night and he surprised me when I got home from the airport with a beautiful ring and amazing proposal. More developments to come, I'm sure. Stay tuned!!
