After dinner tonight, Dad asked me to check whether my sisters and brother are online. So I took the stairs up, turned on my Messenger. Apparently everyone is online tonight. So I ran back down to tell him the news, and he decided to go up to my laptop to talk to them.
At first he put on his reading glasses and read our conversation as I type in everything that he says to them. Then he asked how this thing worked, and I ended up teaching him to type using a laptop.
It was heart-warming, seeing him struggling to press each words to form letters and phrases which are then sent as I pressed 'Enter'. I can tell he's concentrating real hard as he tries to find the word that he's looking for, scanning the keyboard continually to find different words, all with one hand. Then my sister replied, and he sat there, reading her reply, realizing that his reply doesnt suit her reply now, and asked me to erase it for him to type a whole new reply.
Awww.
The effort he put into communicating with his offsprings.
