Grandfathers, Ice Cream, and Life Lessons: How One Child’s Grace, Humor, and Boldness Turned a Restaurant Moment into a Heartwarming, Unexpected Tale of Family, Generational Wisdom, Humor, and the Unpredictable Ways Grandfathers Shape Memories That Last a Lifetime

This is for all the grandfathers out there.

 

 

Last week, I took my grandchildren to a restaurant. My six-year-old grandson asked if he could say grace. As we bowed our heads he said, “God is good, God is great.

 

Thank you for the food, and I would even thank you more if Grandpa gets us ice cream for dessert. And liberty and justice for all! Amen!”

 

Along with the laughter from the other customers nearby, I heard a woman remark, “That’s what’s wrong with this country.

 

Kids today don’t even know how to pray. Asking God for ice cream! Why, I never!”

 

Hearing this, my grand-son burst into tears and asked me, “Did I do it wrong?

 

Is God mad at me?”

 

As I held him and assured him that he had done a terrific job, and God was certainly not mad at him an elderly gentleman approached the table. He winked at my grand-son and said, “I happen to know that God thought that was a great prayer.”

 

“Really?” my grand-son asked. “Cross my heart,” the man replied.

 

Then, in a theatrical whisper, he added (indicating the woman whose remark had started this whole thing), “Too bad she never asks God for ice cream. A little ice cream is good for the soul sometimes.”

 

Naturally, I bought my grand-children ice cream at the end of the meal. My grand-son stared at his for a moment, and then did something I will remember the rest of my life.

 

He picked up his sundae and, without a word, walked over and placed it in front of the woman. With a big smile he told her, “Here, this is for you. Shove it up your ass you grouchy old b*tch!

 

 

Touches the heart doesn’t it? Bet you didn’t see that coming!!!!! ===================================

Have you ever wondered what the difference between Grandmothers and Grandfathers is?

 

Well here is the answer:

 

A friend, who worked away from home all week, always made a special effort with his family on the weekends. Every Sunday morning he would take his 7—year old granddaughter out for a drive in the car for some bonding time, just him and his granddaughter. One particular Sunday however, he had a bad cold and really didn’t feel like being up at all.

 

Luckily, his wife came to the rescue and said that she would take their granddaughter out. When they returned, the little girl anxiously ran upstairs to see her Grandfather. “Well, did you enjoy your ride with grandma?”

 

“Oh yes, Papa” the girl replied, “and do you know what?

We didn’t see a single a——hole, stupid basta——, or dumb sh—— anywhere we went today!”
