This post was written by my brother-in-law James Blair. I really liked hearing his perspective.
My mother-in-law is love in action.
She accepted me pretty quick. She did not have much time, but she didn’t need it.
See this dress?
It did not come from a store. It was a custom order. She made it with love for a special daughter who finally found the man who matched the dress.
She also made something special for me. It was a surprise. It was a good surprise. The groom’s cake tradition was new to her, but she took it and had fun.
Speaking of having fun, she has never missed a chance to have fun with her grandkids. This was right after Jeb was born. How many Grannys would do this for their grandkids?

Love in action sometimes means dancing in the rain with 2 and 3 year old granddaughters.
