Quiet Observer

Today Natalie had brake problems on her car and so she came in and had them worked on with our favorite mechanic.  While they were working on her car she and the kids came and stayed at our house.  After I finished cleaning bathrooms I decided that we needed to go to lunch.  So I got cleaned up and we headed to Costa Vida.  It was fun to be with them and just visit with Natalie.  However I observed such a sweet experience during the time that we were there I had to write it down.  When we pulled in there was an older gentleman pushing an even older man in a wheelchair trying to find access to the sidewalk and into the building.  He then helped the man in the wheelchair order and get him seated and then he got his food.  After a few minutes I noticed him jump up and meet someone at the door and he escorted an elderly woman to the same table where he took her order and got her food.  He was obviously the son of these two people and watching him with them was such a sweet experience.  He helped them eat where necessary and took care of every need they had.  Most of all he did all of this as a real gentleman and with this huge smile on his face it just made my day.  He had obviously been trained well by them as parents and was in return caring and loving them, very sweet.
