Chinese Fortunes

For Memorial Day weekend, my parents and grandparents are in town at our house.  My grandfather loves to go to New China Buffet....so we go every time he is here.  We went tonight and all of us got good fortunes in our cookies...which were actually pretty true!  Grandmother had a fortune about having her greatest wish come true - don't know what better wish you could ask for than to be married for 60-years (they just celebrated that milestone in March).  My grandfather's fortune was about having a smart, loving, and beautiful family.....which, of course, is true!  LOL.  It was a great dinner together.  We even had a good laugh....

Estin was attempting to use chopsticks to eat.  Dad was sitting next to him at the end of the table, and he says, "Jenn! Fork!" I asked him if he wanted another fork and he said yes.  So, I give him an extra fork - wondering the whole time why he needed two forks.  He then sets the fork beside Estin and says, "I'm tired of watching him!"  He was tired of watching Estin mess with the chopsticks and he just wanted him to eat.  You kind of had to be there....but it was a good moment.  Especially because daddy can't talk much anymore with  his disease....it was nice to see a part of my old daddy come out - I haven't seen that in a while, and I've missed it.
