My dear daughter-in-law

The day after tomorrow is the birthday of a woman who has a very special place in my heart. She is full of love, yet does not suffer fools gladly. She is full of giggles, yet down-to-earth and eminently practical. She surprises me with her sharp insights, yet is tolerant and wise. I love this woman and am so grateful to call her daughter-in-law! Here's a look at her over the years.
