Definition of sweet . . . 13

The family is sitting at dinner the other day. While we always sit down together, my daughter had finished some of hers before my wife and I had finished plating ours.

Jamie: "Thank you, mama."

Jackie: "You're welcome honey. Did you want more rice?"

Jamie: "Yes, please."

My wife heats up a little more rice and gives it to my daughter.

Jackie: "Did you want something to drink? Juice? Water?"

Jamie: "Juice, please, mama."

My wife fetches the juice while I get a glass.

Jamie: "Sorry if you can't eat because of me . . . sorry if your dinner is getting cold, mama."


Now that's sweet.
