Whenever I saw my grandson
DD’s photos I can not help but laughing hysterically, I don’t know why? After I
found my wife, DD’s Korean grandma and aunts are all suffering the similar
problem, then I felt a little bit better. That is because we all somewhat
related to this little guy.
At first, I thought may be everyone looks at DD’s photos will be as joyful as
myself, therefore I was always eager to show DD’s photos to my friends and
colleagues. But sooner I realized they reacted differently. Some showed
excitement, and say wow! He is a cute boy! I think they just want to be polite.
Some can not hide their jealousness, envy DD’s grandpa. Some don’t event have
patience to show politeness. For example, one of my elementary school
classmate, he flipped through the album so fast while talking to other people.
Since then, I stop sharing my treasure with them any more.
I know our God is a loving God, He always assigns the babies to the right
persons who care and love them the most to take care of them. DD is placed in
the hands of his Dad and Mom. At least I know his mother well, since she was in
the hands of me and my wife for many years. For sure, she loves DD the most,
although it may not be exactly the same way we love her. Therefore, we stop
nagging at her, such as, make sure you feed him well, dress him warm, change
diaper more often, comb his hair, ……etc. But, believe it or not, Grandparents
would still sometimes unconsciously mentione such tedious things on the Skype.
Of course, his mother doesn't mind, since she is now a grown and mature woman.
We are always proud of her on everything she did.
My son-in-law is a good father; he is so gentle to DD. My wife always says:”
look at Tae, he is such a good father! Whenever DD sees his Dad’s around he
starts to kick and smile.” Yes, it is true. Tae is a loving Dad. I found DD’s
eyes and eye brows definitely from him. Tae’s ears like mine are big,
therefore, we are not sure whether DD’s big ears are from Grandpa or his Dad. I
think we will fight for that, since big ears mean a man with good fortune who
will grow up and marry to a beautiful and talented woman. At least this
happened to both DD’s Dad and his Grandpa!
DD has a great aunt, he likes her. She is kind and gentle. Aunty bought him all
kinds of toys trying to spoil him. Very soon, she will get married and soon DD
may have cousins. I can not imagine what kind of big brother DD will turn out
to be.
Finally, DD has two grandmothers, one was the prettiest woman in Korea, and the
other one was the prettiest woman in Hong Kong. Now you should know cute DD
does not come out of nowhere. Both grandmas are DD’s fans.
