A weak old man went to live with his son， daughter﹣in﹣law and a 4﹣year﹣old grandson． The family ate together at the table． The grandfather had difficulty eating because he couldn't see things clearly， and his hands couldn't stop shaking． Peas （豌豆） rolled （滚动） off his spoon onto the floor． When he drank from the glass， milk spilled （洒） on the table．

The son and daughter﹣in﹣law became angry with the mess． Then they set a small table in the corner． There， the old man ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner together．

Because the old man had broken a dish or two， he was asked to eat from a wooden bowl． Sometimes he had a tear in his eyes as he sat alone． Still， the couple complained about him． The 4﹣year﹣old son watched it all in silence．

One evening before dinner， the father noticed his son playing with some wood blocks on the floor． He asked the child， "What are you making？" The boy answered， "Oh， I am making a little bowl for you and Mommy to eat your food in when I grow up．" The boy smiled and went back to work． The father was shocked by his words and couldn't find a reply． Although no word was spoken， the couple knew what had to be done．

That evening the husband took the old man's hand and gently led him back to the family table． For some reason， neither the husband nor the wife seemed to care any longer when the bowl was dropped，milk was spilled， or the table was in a mess．
