[QUOTE="DDD, post: 547305, member: 35"] What an uplighting post, H&R. I'm really glad for both you and mother in law that the beginning of a bond resulted from this week together. It sounds as though you were the ultimate hostess and daughter in law. Truthfully I have to say that your husband sounds like a chip off the old block. In fact that may be why he has been mother in law's favorite. It's particularly uplighting to know that mother in law eagerly attended the function with you. Really it sounds to me that she recognizes that it's time to "reinvent" herself and become an individual after decades of being "the wife" "the Mom". That's a mighty big task and I wish her well. Having you for caring support should really help. Hugs DDD PS: My Mother spent her entire life being known as X's wife. My Dad was extroverted, attractive and popular. Mom was always beautifully maintained and supportive. Sadly, however, she never had a friend of her own. It was such a waste as she was attractive, educated, gracious etc. etc. but solely lived as an extension of Dad and of the kids. [/QUOTE]
