Wow! What a great mother in law. I have a photograph of my mother in law on the fireplace to keep the kids away from the fire. Lovely watch by the way

Congrats! Very Impressive! My mother-in-law gets along better with me than with her own kids. Maybe I should give her a hint?

Well, to be fair this only proves that mothers in law don't necessarily suck. The jury's still out on marriage...

Very nice. There are lots of single guys on here that would probably like to meet your wife's sister.

Thanks a lot, I really appreciate that. It goes quite well with a suit (in my opinion.)
