Lessons learned from a mother-in-law

I guess a succinct summation would be unconditional love.

She calls me her miracle love-child, for I was born about two months after she & my father-in-law wed.

Funny, but that's the way she loves me -- not simply because I'm her son's wife or her grandsons' mother -- just 'cause I'm me, her other daughter!

She raised my love for 18 years, and now I've had him for almost 19.
