Last night we decided some Mexican food was just the thing for dinner ~ so that's what we had. After we finished dinner I asked my FIL if he wanted some ice cream for dessert (that's a regular thing around here). I got the answer I expected ~ "I'll take it in about an hour". So an hour later I went to ask him if he was ready for his ice cream ~ because he was riding the exercise bike (yes, he still rides it several times a day) he asked me to wait about 20 minutes. Then I noticed he was watching one of the Jason Bourne movies ~ on a Spanish speaking channel. Here's the rest of our conversation.
Me: So what are you watching?
Dad: I think it's that Bourne Ultimatum movie.
Me: Hmmmm...you eat some Mexican food for dinner and think you can understand Spanish?
Dad: Oh, I thought it was French.
(he was serious ~ he doesn't speak French either!)
He cracks me up! Our lives have changed quite a bit in the 2 1/2 years he's lived with us. But I wouldn't have it any other way! What a blessing to be able to have four generations together regularly.
I'd appreciate it if you kept him (Bud) in your prayers ~ he's had some medical issues recently. This afternoon he'll be visiting an oncologist and we're praying for good news.
Elijah, age 2 and Super Grandpa, age 92 (and yes, that's what they call him)
