My Daughters

Christon and Jordan
I'd like to introduce my daughters to you for those of you who haven't had the opportunity to meet them in person. I didn't give birth to these girls. My sons blessed my life with them by choosing them to be their wives. Christon married Harrison, October will be 5 years ago, and is pictured on the left. She is the mother of my grand daughters. (I still can't believe that neither Shelby or Reagan inherited Christon's naturally curly hair.) Jordan is pictured on the right and married Travis two years ago. Both the girls moved into our home and lived as a married couple with our sons the first year of their marriages. No sweat for the boys, but I can't even begin to know how hard that was for them to live with me and Harry. (Now think about it, can you see yourself living with your mother in law for the first year of your marriage?) But it did give us a chance to become very close and they do still speak to me, so maybe I wasn't to bad. They both have beautiful homes of their own now. They are good wives and I think my son's and our family and extended family have been very blessed to have them in our lives. One of the best blessings is that they get along with each other as best friends as well as being sisters in laws. I hope that my son's will always treasure them as much as I do. I'm also lucky that they both read my blog, so here's to you girls, all my love! TMiL (the mother in law)

Harrison & Travis's Papa & Grandmother love those girls too and their parents and siblings. They are super granddaughters. It is so good that in-laws get along so well. No out-laws here.
Hugs n' Love,
mum

It's true. I want you for my mother-in-law. Is there any chance that there is an older, incredibly handsome, wealthy son chained to the wall in your basement somewhere? I knew it was too much to hope for....

Thank you so much for posting this! That was too sweet! And, like Christon said, I think that we are the lucky ones to move into the family! You and Harry have been such a good example of what a marriage should be that I think Travis was well-prepared. You guys bless us more than you will ever know! Thanks again for EVERYTHING!
