Aww I love my MiL! I married her son when he was only 19 and she was 40 - the following year we got pregnant within weeks of each other - I gave birth to our first son and she had a daughter so we raised our children together plus she got all her grandchildren in the following years too - she is just lovely and she has just paid for us all to go on a big family holiday to Dublin for my nephews ( her grandsons) christening - can't wait!!

My MIL was invited to our wedding. She didnt show up. Still dont know why. She asked for a copy of the photos.

Some MILs are nice some are horrid, some Mothers are nice some are horrid. Tis life.
