Don’t do it Cathy!

The last time we visited my husband’s mother, our older daughter was 1-1/2 and I was pregnant with daughter #2. We couldn’t stay with her (she had “reasons”), so we stayed with his sister & her family. She has 3 kids, the youngest, a girl, just 1 year older than our girl, and she would go through our stuff and throw it all around our room. She would also burst into the bathroom (no lock) when I was giving our girl a bath…and was never disciplined for either action: “it’s just the way it is; your daughter will do it, too, when she gets to this age.” Thankfully, she never did.

If you give in to this kind of immature selfish behavior, the perpetrator will make you miserable.

My MIL died at 101. I still have her with me when I look at my dh’s face. (he looks just like her, especially now that he is older)

Aack!! That’s no vacation.

AACK, indeed, Lindz. I sense a great disturbance in the Force …

HI, MOM. Greetings, Clan.

OMG ….. Irving’s mother is SO manipulative! :-(

I was truly blessed to have a wonderful mother-in-law that I loved and didn’t mind visiting in the least. She’s been gone for 15 years now and I still think about and miss her every single day. :-(
