love is in the small things

During church today, i hopped downstairs to look for my lovely grandparents. Their Dialect service ends as ours start so they get to go home early :) And I thought i saw one of the most romantic things.

My grandpa is pretty old (in fact we just celebrated his birthday!) and sometimes his legs can get soft. During these times, it's hard to walk. Anyway, i popped down, and I saw my grandma going into the toilet. My grandpa was just standing around, waiting for her.

So i told him (in Hokkien and super weak attempt at Hainanese), 'why don't you go and sit down at the empty seat over there?' He just shaked his head and asked me to sit down instead.

And i went again, 'Gong Gong, you can sit there'.

This time round, he simply told me, 'i'm waiting for your grandma to come out from the toilet first'.

Awwww, after years and years of marriage, 4 children and 9 grandchildren later... their love is still evident in the small things. Despite his 'soft' legs, he chose to wait for my grandma to come out from the toilet.

I wonder if i can do the same after many many years. :)
