My sweet, beautiful daughter just got engaged last night to a sweet, adorable guy who is so much like her dad that it's just awesome. I used to worry that my daughters wouldn't be able to find someone as wonderful as their dad -- I really thought I got the last one. Fortunately for Chelsea, Mike is a very close facsimile. Close. So, at least one daughter got lucky so far! (I don't think the other two daughters are even looking, but I'm just the mom, so what do I know?)
Well, it was all fun and games last night until it hit me... Oh my, I'm gonna be a mother-in-law. Wow. I know Chelsea thinks I'm the best mom ever -- she tells me so all the time -- but I really hope that when all is said and done, Mike will be able to say that he has the best mother-in-law ever. I know he's getting the best bride any guy could hope for! And my Hunny is so amazing, I'm sure he'll be a fabulous father-in-law. But then, it's not the fathers-in-law that get all the jokes and wise-cracks, is it? It's a tough job, but I'm ready!
Here's to a beautiful new year, full of hope and promise. Let's do our best to savor each moment of it and spend each breath wisely.
