Gracieland Table Talk:

We would like to encourage you to share a family meal and Gracieland together. Each week we will be posting some discussion starters that you can share with your family. Share the webstrip with your kids, grab a plate, pull up a chair, and talk.

Ask your child:

How is tending to a garden similar to being a mom?

What "weeds" does your mom try to keep away from you?

Can zucchini get detention?  What does Gracie mean by this?

What does mom mean by "an early harvest"?
