We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary in 2008. Our children helped us celebrate with an all expense paid all arranged vacation In Hawaii.

I have heard my share of, and even told a few, mother-in-law jokes.
If I could think of a funny one, I would tell it right now.
But this post is not about jokes. It's about a grand lady who, if she were living, would be ninety-six today.
My mother-in-law--and my father-in-law always treated me with the greatest respect. They never interfered in our lives or tried to tell us how to raise our family.
My mother-in-law was a good Christian lady. She was a good person in every way. She was kind, considerate and always put others first.
My wish for every man out there is for you to have a mother-in-law like mine. And I will know that when you tell those jokes--and you will tell them, that you are just teasing!
Happy heavenly birthday Jessie!

With a sweetie like Charlotte, I knew you had to have good in-laws!
What a lovely tribute, Clif!
My own mamma would have turned 91 on Wednesday ... I still miss her so very much!
Don't know if this seems weird, but on each anniversary of her passing, I try to wish her a "Happy HEAVEN-Birthday."
I'm reminded of a phrase our pastor (Florida) once spoke: "We are all spiritual beings, simply going through a Human experience."
Have a beautiful day!
