A shared laugh- OT

Last-Wife's picture

To begin to mend hurt feelings, I asked DH to watch the Hallmark movie with me last night. The card commercials made us cry, as did the movie, but we had a shared laugh. (Oh yeah, SD17 stayed and watched the movie with us too, which was nice.) In the movie, the main character and his father aren't close because the dad always seemed embarassed by his kid's disability. Now a grown man, the main character has brought his new girlfriend over to meet dad and stepmom.

While grilling burgers, the dad says to the young man he likes the girlfriend, "She reminds me of your mother when we first married..."

I started laughing, and told DH, "I don't think that's a sentence you should ever say to the boys when they are dating..."

Even SD cracked up...
