Generosity

We celebrated my dad's 60th birthday today by going out dinner as a family to a restaurant with a buffet. We all enjoyed the evening and ate lots of yummy food. During the drive afterwards Ben commented that the restaurant owners must be such nice people, that they were incredibly generous. Chris and I had no idea where he was going with this, and asked him what he meant. He said that he was able to go up to the table and get as much watermelon as he liked, he didn't have to ask, and he got to decide how much he took. This was not like any other restaurant he had ever been to and therefore the owners must really really love sharing. Chris mentioned that the type of restaurant was a buffet. Ben understood that to be the family who owned the restaurant to be named Buffet. We decided to leave it at that, Ben loved thinking this family gave him a great gift. How great is that!
