See this very nice lady with my adorable Little Dude (who is not even a day old in this picture)?

This is my mother-in-law.

She could have made life difficult on me, as is often the case with the horror stories you hear regarding mother-in-laws. Instead, she welcomed and accepted me, and although we don’t have a lot in common, we have a couple of men for whom we share our affections, and have grown to love and respect each other. (At least she says she loves me… Hmm – I’ll have to ask her about this…)

Today she is having heart surgery – a valve replacement. This procedure is pretty routine, but as is the case when a loved one has to have any type of medical intervention, her family and friends are worried. A few thoughts and prayers in our general direction, for her, would be appreciated, that all goes well during the surgery.

And while we are at it, let’s hope and pray for a speedy recovery after surgery, as Little Dude rather enjoys climbing his grandma, and will have a hard time understanding why she won’t be able to carry him for a little while.

Thank you!
