The price of perfect

I'm looking for a $5 gift for Clark.It has to be perfect. Last year the limit was $10. I bought him these green scissors because I love them. They are perfect for me. His wan smile told me the sharp little blades were not perfect for him. Our new puppy chewed his perfect gift, & now they're hard to hold. So this year I'm under pressure to produce perfect.

This morning Clark told me he's found my gift, but it was more than $5; he told the man he has a $5 limit, so the man agreed. This means my gift is from a flea market or antiques shop.

I've got a few more days to search for perfect, & in that time I think about Clark -- what he loves & what I love about him. Perfect.
