“Daddy, can I have a piece of cake?” my oldest son asked me.
We had just been to the gym and stopped to   31  at the restaurant.
“No,” I replied, “you don’t need a piece of cake.”
My son   32  15 in a few days. He   33  over 6 feet tall. He is very slim and athletic in shape. It was not always that way. My wife wrote a book about the challenge and   34  of getting him fit. He now takes it   35  and looks as he’s never been overweight in his life.
He had a full plate of   36  and tofu. He didn’t need a piece of cake. Besides, everything in the restaurant is quite   37 . Our dinners could have   38  a family of seven at a fast food restaurant. That cake probably cost $5.
He was   39  as he looked at the delicious cakes. I had forgotten that I had walked over to the cake shelf while he was   40  his food from the buffet (自助餐).
I looked at my   41 . There sitting on the edge was a piece of   42 . I looked at it wondering but also knowing how it got there. “We will divide it,” I said.
A few days later my oldest son was with me again. We stopped at a   43 . He ordered a sandwich. I then   44  two sandwiches. He immediately barked, “Can I have two?” He wanted exactly what Daddy had.
Your kids are very likely to put on their plates, exactly what you have on yours, and I think this applies to more than food. Keep your   45  plate with only what you want your kinds to have.

An eight-year-old child heard her parents talking about her little brother. All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money. Only a very expensive operation could save him now and there was no one to lend them the money.
When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother, “Only a miracle can save him now,” the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her money from its hiding place and counted it carefully.
She hurried to a drugstore with the money in her hand.
“And what do you want?” asked the salesman. “It’s for my little brother,” the girl answered. “He’s really, really sick and I want to buy a miracle.” “Pardon?” said the salesman.
“My brother Andrew has something bad growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?” “We don’t sell a miracle here, child. I’m sorry,” the salesman said with a smile.
“Listen, if it isn’t enough, I can try and get some more. Just tell me how much it costs.”
A well-dressed man heard it and asked, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?”
“I don’t know,” she answered with her eyes full of tears. “He’s really sick and mum says he needs an operation. But my daddy can’t pay for it, so I have brought all my money.”
