I've always said that I just adore watching older couples. There's just something about the comfort, the acceptance, the loving words, and patience they show.
I ran across Rita and Frank on YouTube and fell in love with them. So, I just have to share this little video with you. Now, at the time, they didn't know they were making a video. They were trying to take a picture of Frank's eighty-fourth birthday cake.
It reminded me of the time I took a video of my eighty-six year old step-father, My Sweet Melvin, as I called him. The tape was rolling and he stood stark still. I said, "Melvin, do something. This is like a movie." So he chuckled. Well, it was a start.
We get a special treat at the end of Rita and Frank's adventure with their new mac. They evidently figured out it was a video and went for it. It's Rita's eightieth birthday (obviously on different days). But listen how Rita's insistent, "Did you hear the click?" turns to a sweet smile, and Frank's "Naoo!"s turn to melody as he performs his birthday wish for his love.

May I be blessed with such a Frank in my golden years. Isn't he such a doll. Lol. I'm already half there with my incompetence with technical new fangled instruments! Just ask my daughter about my fiasco with her digital camera. *sigh*

Until next time, may your dreams be magical.
