Sit As a Family
The challenge of a dinner
To sit the family
Is one that’s ever going
Worth it though, you see
For if you come together
To have a daily meal
Conversation then comes in
With lives to be revealed
Share in daily banter
To learn about each day
Values will develop
Help children on their way
So take the time to listen
Make the time to speak
Enforce the time to sit and share
Make family strong, not weak
By enforcing conversation
Your children’s values grow
Share with them your days spent
Teach everything you know
