a 1(虚弱的) old man went to live with his son, daughter-in-law, and a four-year-old grandson. the old man's hands trembled, his eyesight was 2, and his step 3. the family ate together nightly at the dinner table. but the elderly grandfather's shaky hands and failing sight made eating rather difficult. peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor. when he grasped the glass often milk spilled on the 4.
 
the son and daughter-in-law became 5 with the mess. so the husband and wife set a small table in the corner. there, grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner at the dinner table. since grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was served in a wooden bowl.
 
sometimes when the family glanced in grandfather's direction, he had a tear in his eye as he ate alone. still, the only words the couple had for him were sharp admonitions(警告) when he dropped a fork or spilled food. the four-year-old son watched it all in silence.
 
one evening before supper, the father noticed his son playing with wood 6 on the floor. he asked the child sweetly, "what are you making?" just as sweetly, the boy responded, "oh, i am making a little bowl for you and mama to eat your food from when i grow up." the four-year-old son smiled and went back to work. the words so struck the parents that they were speechless. then tears started to stream down their cheeks. though no word was spoken, both knew what must be done. that evening the husband took grandfather's hand and gently led him back to the family table.
 
for the 7 of his days he ate every meal with the family. and for some reason, neither husband nor wife seemed to care any longer when a fork was dropped, milk spilled, or the tablecloth soiled. children are 8 9. their eyes always observe, their ears always listen, and their minds always process the messages they absorb. if they see us patiently provide a happy home atmosphere for family members, they will imitate that attitude for the rest of their lives. the wise parent realizes that every day is being laid for the child's future.
 
let us all be wise builders and role models. take care of yourself...and those you love...today, and everyday!
