But one day, she put a burnt pie in front of my Grandpa.
Not just a little burnt, but black as coal.
I waited to see what my Grandpa would say.
But he just ate the pie and asked how my day was.
Then I heard my Grandma apologize to him for his dinner.
I'll never forget his response.
"Dear, I like your pie."
Later, I asked him if he had told the truth.
He put his arm on my shoulder and said,
Not just a little burnt, but black as coal.

He put his arm on my shoulder and said,
"Your Grandma had a tough day at work."
"She was tired."
"The burnt pie didn't harm me,
"She was tired."
"The burnt pie didn't harm me,
but a sharp word could've hurt her."
We all make mistakes.
We shouldn't focus on mistakes, but
We all make mistakes.
We shouldn't focus on mistakes, but
support those we love.
