Mother-in-Laws

I just finished reading a novel called "Mother-in-Law Diaries" by fellow Austinite Carol Dawson. (See my recent reads for an Amazon link)

I really enjoyed the book, but it made me think about my mother-in-law Marilyn. Marilyn passed away June 2005 after a short, but brave battle with cancer. She was amazing, funny and strong woman who I only knew for 8 short years. While I know many wives have stormy relationships with their mother-in-laws, I was lucky to know mine.

Marilyn, I miss you and think of you often.
