There is a big misconception
about mothers in law. I hear
people say so many bad things about mothers in law. For example,
they
say they are not very loving, that they like to take sides, and
many
other things.
Believe it or not, my mother in law was a very special person
to me. She
has passed away, but the memories will never fade away of how
loving she
was and about the things she taught me.
One thing she taught me was the values of being a good wife
and mother.
She taught me how to take my place as the woman of the house
and not the
man of the house. She said to me, "In the future, this will
help you," and it has helped me.
I also learned from my mother in law that early discipline with
my
children would be a good thing. In the future, when they get
older and
get married, they are not perfect, but when you teach them well
and
discipline them, you see what they are becoming. It's the greatest
feeling in the world.
I've been married now for 20 years to a wonderful man. We have
four
children who are very special to us. I thank God first of all
and my
mother in law, who to me was just a mother in law. She is no
longer with
us, but she will always be the most unforgettable person in my
life.
