My Paul shared this sweet, sweet story with me tonight.
In the last few weeks
since the play was over I have been walking myself home and stopping at the
McDonalds to get a coke zero on the way home.
Since I have been in there a few times I have been noticing some of the
same people are there too.
There is this one old
man and old lady that come in together when I am there. They are very old, and very sweet to each
other. I noticed that he always gets the
food, one of everything and brings it back to the table where she waits, sitting next to the big Christmas tree they have there. Then after they say a small prayer he sits
with her while she eats. He doesn’t even
eat a french fry until she is done. Then he eats.
The last time I held
the door for them as they were leaving and I told him I thought it was very
nice how he always treated her so kindly.
I asked him why he always waited for her to finish eating before he eats. He just laughed at me and said “I wait
because they are her teeth we are using!”
Do me a favor? Floss really well tonight!
