When we're finished with dinner, we read the Bible (children's versions) and then sing songs. This has become quite a routine. In fact, when David has finished eating the food on his plate (a generous way to describe the little bits of food that he actually eats), he looks at me and says "Alive, Alive" (his latest favorite song).
We have quite the short list of favorite songs. For awhile it was "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" and "Only a Boy Named David".
Now it's "Alive, Alive" and "Waves of Mercy". The kids love to run around and dance for this last song just like our song leaders did during our church retreat. Claire usually bumps into a wall or David at some point during her dance. David usually falls down in a dizzy fit because he turns around so much. But, both kids are so excited to be singing our "Bible songs" that neither one of them minds.
I don't think God does either.

I love your dinner time routine! We read our Children's Rhyming Bible after dinner as well. (Anika has begun to memorize it.) But the thing I had to chuckle at in this post is your description of David's eating habits. I think they match Andrew's perfectly! (Andrew starts that day off strong and then eats less and less so dinner time is pretty sparse.)
