THE WOODEN BOWL

A frail 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 blurred, and his step faltered. The family ate together at the table. But the
elderly grandfather’s shaky hands and failing sight made eating difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor.
When he grasped the glass, milk spilled on the table cloth.
The son and daughter – in – law became irritated with the mess.” We must do something about father,”
Sid the son. “I’ve had enough of his spilled milk, noisy eating, and food on the floor.” So the husband and wife
set a small table in the corner. There, Grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner. Since
Grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was served in a wooden bowl! When the family glanced in
Grandfather'’ direction, sometime he had a tear in his eye as he sat alone. Still, the only words the couple had for
him were sharp admonitions when he dropped a fork or spilled food.
The four – year old watched it all in silence.
One evening before supper, the father noticed his son playing with wood scraps 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 in when I grow up.” The four-year old smiled and went back to work.
The words so struck the parents so 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
remainder 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.
