30 Years of Marriage
My brother and I --usually goare usually going to our home town for the summer holiday. We --spendare spending a peaceful couple of weeks there and we --get togetherare getting together with our childhood friends.
The best thing is that we --eatare eating lasagna cooked by mum. Mum --cooksis cooking terribly (don't tell her I said so!). But, somehow, her lasagna is the tastiest dish in the world. Actually, right now I --sitam sitting on the porch eating mushroom lasagna. What a life!
This year is special because our parents --celebrateare celebrating thirty years of marriage. How can you live with someone for thirty years? It sounds like a long time.
We brought our parents a heart-shaped photo frame with a recent photo of them together. Dad --now looksis now looking for the best place where to put it. I think he --takesis taking a bit too much time to find it. Mum keeps reminding him to take out the trash and he --avoidsis avoiding it.
"She --always nags meis always nagging me."
"That's because I --haveam having so many reasons to do so."
"You keep looking for them, they --don't just findaren't just finding you."
Yes, I guess thirty years really is a long time.
