Jolene

I have decided to blog a little about my family. Random thoughts, just putting my heart into the written word.

The faintest ink is better then the strongest memory

 

Something like that.

Who knows why I feel compelled to do the things I do.

Jolene is my Mother in Law.

She is so much more then that. To say she is kind, feels like it is just "too short". She is uncommonly kind, the best kind of kind. I love her testimony, work ethic, her desire to please and make everyone happy. She is helpful, is she ever helpful. She says spending time with her grandchildren (aka babysitting always) is good for her, calms her.

She has come down to my home many times when I can't bare to burden someone else just to help me with anything. She always tells me that I am a good mother, and coming from her, I'll take that as a compliment. When I am troubled, I call her. I unload all my worries and concerns, and ask for her to pray for us. She always does, and does so willingly. I burden her with my heavy heart and she makes it lighter, not because she has a magic wand, but because I know despite the worry/problem/trial, she will be there to support me. I would not trade her for any other mother in law in the world. I am blessed to be her only daughter in law. ( I feel like she spoils me because of this) :) We love her dearly. It took sometime, but I am so glad she knows how much we love her too, and by "we" I mean Weston. She has worked and worked at a relationship with him, and now, the reward. He lights up when she walks into a room.

She is an amazing individual who we are blessed to call Mom, Jen, Jolene, Honey, Grandma, and friend.
