Moments in Life with the 'rents

Dad (when Ann and I were cooking dinner): Cook my cube steak well done!  I don't like raw meat.


Dad (discussing his attempt to eat the leftover cube steak):  I tried, but I just couldn't eat it - it was tough!


Mom (looking at my dish of sweet and sour chicken): Rule of the house - Mom gets a bite.  I don't want that bite; it has sauce on it.


Mom (as she eats the last piece of candy in the jar): I don't know where all this candy keeps disappearing to.


Dad: You sure were out late last night. (Ann and I got home at 10:30.)





Sigh.  Of course, now I sigh about these things because I just have to live them.  But I know that, all too soon, I will remember these moments and sigh for how much I miss them both.
