She has been through more in the past year and a few months than most people...
yet she still shines love....
She really IS the world's BEST baker and BEST spoiler, always remembering everyone's favorites, likes and dislikes...
She is willing to try new things and STRETCH beyond her comfort zone....
and I think she even LIKED it sometimes...
I am so lucky to be able to share my deepest, darkest secrets with her and always feel support, love and NEVER like I am an "in law" daughter...but like one of the "originals"...more often than not at the kitchen table in her cozy home... 
Happy Birthday Mama! I love you and I'm SO thankful for you!!!

How could I call her anything BUT, "Mother-in-Love" or what I really DO call her in real life...

Previous anonymous....aka...code name, "Laura"
Seeing Memi playing GUITAR HERO is my favorite picture...totally stepping outside her comfort zone (and liking it). She is DEFINITELY someone that I admire. She's good at EVERYTHING!!!!! She's a woman to aspire to be like, that's for sure!
Is it MIMI or Memi or Memie!!?? I can never spell it right!!!!
MiMi :)
Thanks Laura Jane :)
What a beautiful post and a heartfelt birthday wish. I wish I had known it was your Mother-In-Love's birthday when we saw her this morning. Happy Birthday!
