1 The man in the story had no wife.___________
Once there was a man who had three daughters and was a single parent to his children. One morning he asked his eldest daughter, Sonya, to wash the breakfast dishes before going to school. But she was already running late, so she burst into tears. The father decided that she was just trying to get out of an unpleasant chore, and he demanded that she dry her tears and get back to work immediately. She silently obeyed him, but that day they were driving to school in silence. The man dropped his daughters and moved to the office. He tried to work but couldn’t concentrate — all he could see was his daughter’s scared, tear-stained face as she climbed out of the car. So he decided to say sorry to his daughter. He took permission from the school to take his daughter for lunch. When she came out, he turned towards his daughter and said, «Sonya, I am sorry. It’s not that I shouldn’t have asked you to help out at home, but I had no right to it this morning without any previous warning. I upset you at a time when you most needed my love and support. And I let you go without saying «I love you. Please forgive me.» Sonya put her arms around her father’s neck and said, «Oh, Dad, of course I forgive you. I love you too.»

1 The author describes the days of his childhood._________
When I was a kid, I remember one night in particular when Mum had made dinner after a long, hard day at work. On that evening my Mum placed a plate of eggs, sausage and extremely burnt biscuits in front of my dad. I remember waiting to see if anyone noticed! Yet all my dad did was reach for the biscuit, smile 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 hearing my Mum apologize to my dad for burning the biscuits. And I’ll never forget what he said, «Honey, I love burned biscuits.» Later I went to kiss my Daddy good night and asked him if he really liked his biscuits burned. He wrapped me in his arms and said, «Your mum put in a long hard day at work today and she is really tired. And besides a burnt biscuit never hurt anyone! You know, life is full of imperfect things and imperfect people. I’m not the best, and I forget birthdays and anniversaries just like everyone. What I have learned over the years is that learning to accept each other’s faults and choosing to celebrate each other’s differences is one of the most important keys to creating a healthy, growing, and lasting relationship.»
