Happy Birthday to the best Mother In Law in the world! If you were here today, we would be planning a "Big" family gathering and trying to figure out how we were going to do it with snow in the forecast. You taught us all that simple things in life were most important. We miss your hugs, your stories, and your laughter. Your memories will live forever!

Those special memories of you will always bring a smile.
If only we could have you back for just a little while.
We could sit and talk just like we used to do.
We could have our breakfast on the veranda & laugh a little too.
The fact that you're no longer here will always cause us pain
but you're forever in our hearts until we meet again!
