In reference to last year's blizzard. The one in which I was snowed in with her for 5 days without my boyfriend.
"Oh and lizzy remember this year first snowflake you are to go home. I can't take another blizzard of having you stuck in our house for that many days. It causes me to have to find "coping medicine".
The time she made me help decorate her entire house...
"okay I feel compelled to clarify a couple things..It is true I did put her to work assisting with tree decorating and then a couple other things because she was kicked back in the chair doing her puzzles, watching all of us work. I asked her to put some ornaments in a dish, took her 20 min and three "start overs"..
Talk of my Christmas present/eviction notice...
"She does face eviction if she doesn't walk the line..The Christmas gift wont be bought until the morning of the family party. Just in case she's not around ..lol.."
"You're getting a recycled Christmas gift..."
My birthday...
"Lizzy I am a few hours early...but I wanted to wish you a very Happy 21st Birthday!!! Hope you have a wonderful day!! We love ya.."
Bring your child to work day...
"By the way, today was take your child to work day. It was for kids ages 6-12. If you were home you could've gone with me. You could've had pizza, small gifts and done my work. No one would've known you weren't 12, actually you could've bonded with Trevor. People would've thought you were his classmate."
The time I grounded her...
"I am grounded? You mean like in my room I can't come out and do chores and stuff???? YAY!!! When can it start? Today? And how long a week? A month? I need the full punishment, but lizzy, you will have to pick up my slack..cooking (ew we'll all lose weight)..cleaning (don't think so)."
Her response to when I was being my usual sweet self...
"Aw..lizzy thank you..now wait you were being sweet..Whats wrong? Do you have a fever? allergic reaction to something??"
When I was left out of a shopping trip...
"Yes lizzy we're going shopping..should be fun times. Aw. You are little, but I could go with you to Chucky Cheese while they are shopping if you could go..We'll miss you tho.."
After someone put something in Spanish on my wall...
"ok liz I know you don't know what Joel just said so copy and paste it and put it online so you can find out. A 'Hernandez' that cant speak Spanish? Gets me...lol"
The encouragement after I got an e-mail from my professor that the class was going to be conducted 100% in Spanish...
"Omg. You need to take a translator with you. You might as well bring a comic book.."
When I said I was pushing snow with the boy...
"Lizzy, you're going to do MANUAL labor?? And early too? Oh my goodness..You ARE bored. You do know pushing snow requires more than sitting in truck on your Nook. You have to get out of the truck if you're going to really help.."
When I opened my NOOK color for Christmas...
"Yes but you do have to know how to read to enjoy it."
When someone told her I was pretty...
"Yes she is and she's nice too...but I dont let her know I think that. Lol."
In response to this picture...
"Um lizzy you were struggling very much..I had all I could do to supervise your attempt..Can you imagine the tragedy if that BIG snowball rolled over your little body? We'd never find you other than pink gloves sticking up..lol.."
Talking about when the boy had stuffed animals when he was little...
"Now lizzy I'm glad we both agree that Shane is a precious angel, however I don't have the bear or the dog I wish I did. Probably all the stuffing came out of it or something and got discarded. Now he has you. Oh my where is that dog or bear???"
The struggle for her to be nice...
"Ok here it goes..God help me...Okay Lizzy you do sweet things, you care about people and thats it..nothing else am I saying..ALL DONE!!"
In Response to this picture...
"As usual Lizzy, you couldn't just savor the moment you had to be flipping your lips even while slow dancing..oh and don't try to tell me you were "attempting" to be singing to him either..lol"
When I told her I was going to the gym and tanning...
"Now by intense gym attendance, do you mean intensely watching others that are there or perhaps will you be participating?? I think tanning booth is more important for you at this point. lol..guess who loves ya."
Her advice on my drive home...
"Be careful driving home. Its mating season and the deer are horny. They are trying to get a piece and wnt stop at anything."
In response to this picture... (Mind you I had to wear the boy's clothes to help pick vegetable in the garden..)
"Believe it or not, she did pick tomatoes. Now I had to tell her to pick the RED ones and to put the GREEN ones back but she caught on after that. Lol jk."
Just for the record... Even without anyone's opinion... I already know the answer to my question. I am blessed and I love her with my whole fist-sized heart. I consider myself extremely lucky to have such an easy-going future mother-in-law with a sense of humor like my own. :)
