When I was a kid, my mum liked to make breakfast food for dinner every now and then. And I remember one night 41 when she had made dinner after a long, hard day at 42 .
On that evening so long ago, my mum 43 a plate of eggs, sausage and extremely burned toast in front of my dad. I remember 44 to see if anyone noticed! 45 all my dad did was reach for his toast, 46 at my mum and ask me how my day was at school… I don’t remember what I told him that night, but I do remember 47 him spread butter and jelly on that toast and eat every bite!
When I got up from the table that evening, I remembered hearing my mum 48 to my dad for burning the toast. And I’II never 49 what he said: ＂Honey, I love 50 toast.＂
Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy good night and I asked him if he really 51 his toast burned. He 52 me in his arms and said, ＂Your Mumma put in a hard day at work today and she’s really 53 . And besides, a burned toast never 54 anyone!＂
55 is full of imperfect things... and imperfect people. I’m not the best at anything, 56 I forget holidays and anniversaries just like everyone else. But what I’ve 57 over the years is that learning to accept each other’s 58 — and 59 to celebrate each other’s differences — is one of the most important keys to creating a healthy, growing, and 60 relationship where a burned toast isn’t a deal-breaker!
