In my 10 things I love, I forgot to list my Mother In Law. Yes, I even love her enough to capitalize her title. So whenever I'm sitting around bemoaning my infertile status, I need to remember that I hit the jackpot in the in law department. I dig my FIL too, especially since he's EXACTLY like my husband (including the not-so-good parts), but I am just crazy about my MIL.
Sorry for the random thought, but I realized I missed her in the list. Rest assured I am not out of my mind from sniffing model airplane glue, I am just lucky enough to have a good one and wanted to share. :-)

Ahhh, that is so sweet!!
That is very very sweet.
That is very nice! I am sure she know she is loved.
wondering if you give In law lessons? and thanks for the sweet card you sent me - I really need to send out anohter batch --- now that i think most of the boxes are unpacked
I lucked out in the MIL department as well--isn't it lovely?
That's nice...and it sounds like you did hit the jackpot. I sort of lucked out, but not like I hoped. I'm jealous!
OMG...(I'm a little behind) but on the 10 grand! Yikes. Hope the Bravelle does it for you! ;)
My MIL kind of sucks. Talking to her is like being in front of a firing squad of questions. And she is really boring. I wish I liked her more.
Hey Leah, I just wanted to comment and say me too! My Mother In Law is more like my mom to me. She is the best. I can say I am truely blessed to have her. She has helped me so much with all my struggles.
Awww, you are so lucky to have that sort of relationship with the IL's. So sweet of you!
I am glad that you have a great MIL. I love mine as well!
Your in-laws sound great. I guess we often forget in the middle of all these infertility tears, that there are some areas where we did luck out. I have two great mother-in-laws (step and the original).
Thanks for your congratulations, so sweet of you.
Hi Leah! I just wanted to stop by and tell you how much I appreciate you! I got your congratulatory card the other day in the mail (the only one so far!) and it made my day!
