JUST LOOK AND YOU'LL SEE

Now the picture I chose this morning is not quite the right one, but the expression on the little girl's face drew me to it. For the purposes of this entry (you have purposes, you ask?) well maybe one, I had to use it to make a point or share in yet another grandchild tale.

I've found that when I open up and tell a story about one of our grands, as a friend calls them, then another grandparent has one to share about his or hers. And I thought only ours were the most lovable.

It seems that Cameron was in a restaurant with his parents. His age at the time was 7. The restaurant was practically empty save those 3. (How do you like the English save for except there? Me neither) He walked away from the table and went to talk to the manager.

"You know, your kids menu is lousy. There's nothing good on it. I don't know what I'm going to eat here."

But he wasn't done with the lecture.

"That's why there's no one here. No families. All because there's nothing good on the kids menu. Get something good and people will come here to eat."

No word on how the manager responded. But another reminder of the "out of the mouths of babes," and "the little children will lead them".

Sometimes I think the next generation is gonna be just fine.
