[quote=Anonymous]OP here. I know that they always say grace at their house, but we haven't hosted Christmas or Thanksgiving at our house for a couple of years, so I just don't remember what they did previously. At Thanksgiving, when we were all together, as we were sitting down my niece immediately said "I've prepared a poem I'd like to read before dinner." Looking back on it, I think it was my brother-in-law's way of preempting grace, but I could be reading into it. I might not have minded it had I been given some advanced warning or had he read a poem or even something biblical, but the free flowing God-praising, "Holy Spirit" hit a nerve. I just kept thinking "it's our house." And I don't think he meant to offend, I really don't, but I don't want it to happen again (they are moving close to us so there will be lots of holidays in the future).[/quote]
