Romance is in the air

 I found out my station in life is about to change officially this weekend.  (I already had a clue)

My oldest son officially proposed to his lady love! My soon to be new daughter told me he even got down on one knee in front of her parents to ask.......awwwww. Pretty brave of him if you ask me, as her father is a retired Chief of Police and still has his service weapon :) So now that I'm going to be a (dreaded) Mother-In-Law...do I have to take classes? LOL
Actually she is a sweet pea, and already pretty entrenched in our hearts. 


 I did manage to get the doll done this weekend as well.....so I will leave you with pictures of Mademoiselle Michelle.

Bright Blessings, Theresa

No you don't need lessons, you've been around your MIL enough years you have it down pat...LOL

Beautiful doll! You really have a gift (but you knew that already!)

So you're going to be "the MIL". How exciting! Sadly...mine leaves a lot to desire, but I'm mentally taking "what I won't ever do" notes along the way. Luckily, I still have a few more years before I have to worry about consulting the notes :)

Congratulations on the new MIL status! And the doll is absolutely ADORABLE. Great work.

Congrats! That is wonderful news, how are you with one leaving the nest? It is always a mixed big I think but you will do great as a MIL.

Oh the leaving the nest thing is a mixed blessing. My oldest girl has been gone at college across state for 3 yrs now, and she's heading to L.A. next fall. With oldest son marrying, and youngest son going to college next fall...it's a mass migration. I will only have little miss here....it's weird, but I'll get over myself :)

Congrats! Glad to hear chivalry is alive and well!

Your doll came out fantastic! She looks like she belongs in a dance hall for sure!

Congratulations to the happy couple! They look lovely together. And Mlle Michelle est tres belle! She looks just like the real deal. Wonderful!

Fanatastic. My youngest son-in-law got down on one knee in wet grass in our yard to propose to my youngest, after sending her outside to see me (I was playing with the graddaughter with the water hose) while he had a chat with her dad. She was worried, she was anxious, and she was quite shocked. A great memory for all of us. (Dad was looking on from the porch and granddaughter said "Can I have one too?") So congrats to all of you and the doll is lovely.

Any woman who raises a son who gets down on one knee to propose in front of her parents shouldn't worry about being one of "those" MILs. I'm thinking you'll do just fine.

And I must say, that doll is fantastic! She's so complete I can even hear the sound of her voice!
