Burnt toast!

A touching story by a girl.
“When I was a little girl, my mom liked to make breakfast food for

dinner every now and then.  And I remember one night in particular when she had made breakfast after a long, hard day at work.
On that evening so long ago, my mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage,
and  extremely burned toast in front of my dad. I remember waiting to see
if  anyone noticed! Yet all my dad did was reach for his toast, smile at
my  mom, and ask me how my day was at school. I don’t remember what I
told him  that night, but I do remember Watching him smear butter and jelly on
 that  toast and eat every bite!
 
When I got Up from the table that evening, I remember hearing my mom apologize to my dad For burning the toast.  And I’ll never forget
 what he  said: ‘Baby, I love burned toast.’  
Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy good night and I asked him if
 He  really liked his toast burned.  He wrapped me in his arms and said,
 
‘Debbie,  your Momma put in a hard day at work today and she’s real tired.  And
 besides - a little burnt toast never hurt anyone!’ You know, life is
 full of  imperfect things…..and imperfect people.  I’m not the best
 
housekeeper or  cook.
 
 What I’ve learned over the years is that learning to accept each
 other’s  faults - and choosing to celebrate each other’s differences - is the
 one of  the most important keys to creating a healthy, growing, and lasting
 
marriage relationship.
 
 And that’s my prayer for you today. That you will learn to take the
 good,the bad, and the ugly parts of your married life and lay them
at the  feet of GOD.  Because in the end, He’s the only One who will be able
 
to give  you a marriage where burnt toast isn’t a deal-breaker!
