Sometimes I look around the dinner table and think, Where am I? How did I get here?
Instead of the face of a child, I see feet.
I say nothing as I am too busy sitting upright, eating my own heavenly New Hampshire corn, to think about hanging upside down under the table. I don't know why I even bother to serve food on plates as throwing the food at the children under the table would be just as satisfying on both ends, don't you think? Oh...but there's that word, civility. Even in a zoo, the animals must be trained.

This made me laugh out loud! I personally am amused at all the things Talia can do with her food (and/or body) while at the table. It drives Brad absolutely BONKERS! I let him fight that battle....I laugh on the inside.
One word: LOL!
Ha! Well, at least her toenails are painted.
I don't know how she can eat corn upside down. A talent you could market??
Very funny. Our problem is keeping the kids sitting whilst eating. What is so difficult about that? But no, they must be up down up down up down and walking around during meals. I don't get it.
Hilarious! Sometimes I ask those same questions at my house! too funny..
Oh my gosh, I'm dying. This is awesome.
Hi, Amy! Nice to meet you!
"satisfying at both ends" -- Yes, entertaining for the thrower and the throwee!
I've never seen feet at the dinner table, but I often have the honor of looking at a derriere while watching TV. My youngest daughter, even now that she's 12, tends to sit on her head with her rear end in the air when she's sleepy. If we're watching a movie, and I look over and don't see a face, I know it's bedtime.
Gee, and I thought the "bodily function humor" at my table was bad. ;)
