Excellent! It is SOOOO nice that you like him. It's tough to have a MIL or FIL that dislikes you and it is so hard to see your child marry someone that you don't think is the best choice. I bet you will now be a very busy mom helping her prepare (unless they are doing some non-traditional). I hope you are feeling better soon so that you can enjoy the coming celebrations.

Thanks, everyone! Yes, I'm sooooo excited I can hardly breathe! I can hardly wait to see her ring--- That may not be until this coming weekend.

They are deleriously happy and so are we! Her twin sister approves wholeheartedly (he asked HER for Stacy's hand, too).

Well, I won't bore you with details (unless you ask - hehe), but I'm happy to share some GOOD news from me for a change!

Love you all
Jan

All I can say is a big Way To Go to Jan's future Son in Law.

And now, a verse from the Carpenter's 1973 hit..."We've Only Just Begun".
not really.

Sometimes life is beautiful eh?

Thanks, Lyn, Hazey and WAM.

I've got to say that I had the perfect example of what a mother-in-law should be with my own mother-in-law (who passed away last June). I only hope I'm half the MIL that she was!

WAM, I think I can hear you strumming that guitar! I hate to admit it, but my husband and I actually had "We've Only Just Begun" sung at our wedding ohhhhhhhh so many years ago (30 this coming April 24). Okay, everybody, say "Ahhhhhhhhhhh", or throw up, whichever you feel like. :lol:
