　　Our children grew up on peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, although my husband and I sometimes sneak one late at night with a glass of milk. I believe that the success of this 31 loved concoction(混合物) lies not in the brand of peanut butter,

　　32

　　in the jelly. The right jelly

　　33

　　the plate, and homemade is the only choice.

　　My mother-in-law was the jelly maker in this family. This limited choice was a welcome

　　34

　　in the days of toddlers, siblings and puppies. All I did was to

　　35

　　baby food jars, which my mother-in-law would seal with wax(蜡) and

　　36

　　back home with us.

　　37

　　I wanted to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich , all I had to do was reach for one of little jars. Jelly making was just a way of

　　38

　　for my mother-in-law. She always did it, setting the

　　39

　　jelly on the shelves .

　　My father-in-law died several years ago and this past December, she also

　　40 . Among the things in the house to be divided by her children were the

　　41

　　canned goods.

　　The other day I reached my pantry(储物间) for jelly for a quick sandwich. Sitting all alone on the far side of the shelf was a small jar of grape jelly, whose lid was

　　42

　　in places.

　　43

　　on it were “GR” for grape and the year when the jelly was made.As I picked up the jar, I suddenly realized something that I had

　　44

　　to see earlier. This was the last jar we would ever have from the

　　45 , loving hands . We hardly ever opened a jar of jelly at table without

　　46

　　about those thousands of little jars she had filled. It seems like such a small thing, and most days it was something that was

　　47

　　for granted.

　　No longer was it just a jar of jelly. It was the end of a family

　　48 . We have hundreds of pictures and many more memories that we expect to

　　49

　　the years and to pass on to our children. The jar of jelly won’t keep that long. It will either have to be eaten or

　　50

　　...but not today.

　　Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are busy trying to earn money to cover living

　　50

　　. They don’t act in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too luxurious for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of the question.

　　51

　　.

　　my father has a bad temper. When he’s very tired from hard work, it is easy for him to lose his

　　temper

　　One day, my mother was sewing a quilt. I silently sat down beside her and looked at her.

　　“Mom, I have a question to ask you,” I said after a while.

　　“What?” she replied, still doing her work.

　　“Is there

　　52

　　between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice.

　　My mother stopped her work and raised her

　　53

　　with surprise in her eyes. She didn’t answer immediately.

　　54

　　, she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt.

　　I was very upset because I thought I had hurt her. I looked at her in

　　55

　　and didn’t know what to do. But at last I heard my mother say gently “Susan, look at this thread. Sometimes it appears, but most of time it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong. If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can

　　56

　　be seen anywhere or anytime, but it’s really there. Love is

　　57

　　.

　　I listened carefully but I couldn’t understand her until the next spring, when my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. When they returned from the hospital, they both looked

　　58

　　. It seemed both of them had had a serious illness.

　　After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother would help my father walk slowly on the country road, along which there were many beautiful flowers, green grass and trees. The sun gently shone through the leaves. All of these made up the most beautiful picture in the world.

　　The doctor had said my father would

　　59

　　in two months. But after two months he still couldn’t walk

　　60

　　. All of us were worried about him.

　　“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.

　　“Susan, don’t worry about me,” he said gently. “To tell you the truth, I just like

　　61

　　with your mom. I like this kind of life.”

　　62

　　his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.

　　63

　　I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. ___64

　　from this experience, I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.
