　　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

　　__1__

　　loved concoction(混合物) lies not in the brand of peanut butter, but rather in the jelly. The right jelly

　　__2__

　　the palate, and homemade is the only choice.

　　My mother­in­law was the jelly maker in this family. This limited choice was a welcome

　　__3__

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

　　__4__

　　baby food jars, which my mother­in­law would seal with wax(蜡) and

　　__5__

　　back home with us. Whenever 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

　　__6__

　　for my mother­in­law. She always did it, setting the

　　__7__

　　jelly on the shelves.

　　My father­in­law died several years ago and this past December, she also

　　__8__. Among the things in the house to be divided by her children were the

　　__9__

　　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

　　__10__

　　in places. Written

　　on it was “GR” for grape and the year when the jelly was made.

　　As I picked up the jar, I suddenly realized something that I had

　　__11__

　　to see earlier. This was the last jar we would ever have from the patient, loving hands. We hardly ever opened a jar of jelly at table without

　　__12__

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

　　__13__

　　for granted.

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

　　__14__. We expect these hundreds of pictures and many more memories to

　　__15__

　　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 thrown out…but not today.

　　As I held my father's hands one night, I couldn't help but notice their calluses(老茧) and roughness. His hands tell the story of his life as a farmer，including all his struggles.

　　One summer, I remember，a drought(旱灾) hit Ontario, turning it into a __1__

　　desert. On one of those hot mornings I was picking sweet corn with my dad to fill the last __2__

　　from

　　the grocery store. Fifty dozen was all we needed, which

　　__3__ took twenty minutes. That morning，however, the process didn't

　　__4__

　　quickly.After forty minutes of aimlessly walking in the field, we

　　__5__

　　needed twenty dozen. I was completely frustrated and

　　__6__．Dropping the basket heavily，I declared，“If the store wants its last twenty dozen，they can pick it themselves！” Dad

　　__7__ ，“Just think, my little girl, only ten dozen left for each of us and then we're done.”Such is Dad—whatever problem he

　　__8__ ，he never gives up.

　　Unfortunately，the disastrous effects of the drought were felt all over our country. It was a challenging time for everyone,

　　__9__

　　Dad remained optimistic.He continued to be grateful for other things like good health and food on our plates.Only then did I truly begin to

　　__10__

　　Dad and his faith that guided us through the hard times.

　　Dad is also a living example of real

　　__11__．From dawn to dusk, he works countless hours to support our family.He always puts our happiness

　　__12__

　　his own, and never fails to cheer me on at my sports games

　　__13__ his exhaustion after long days.His loving and selfless nature has inspired me to become more sympathetic and

　　__14__ , putting others first.

　　Dad, the life

　　__15__

　　I have learned from you will stay with me forever.You are my father, teacher, friend and，most importantly，my hero.
