I'm not good at giving my word because I don't want to disappoint the person whom I gave my word to.

I encountered them for the first time when I went home with my boyfriend from college to his house for Thanksgiving break. We drove through the night and arrived after everyone was in bed. I came into the kitchen on Thanksgiving morning. My future mother in law was swearing under her breath because her brother bought a turkey too big to sit on the lowest oven rack and she was having a heck of a time removing the racks and setting the pan in the bottom of the oven. I helped her and then introduced myself since her son was still upstairs in bed and I was awake early out of nerves. After finding her like that, I was no longer nervous and had to keep from laughing. We had a lovely visit just the two of us over coffee and toast before anyone else was up. We've gotten along splendidly ever since.<br /><br />Thanks for the giveaway opportunity.Sophia Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07909417504496472472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7461151632869306520.post-57940809479992896862014-02-12T12:39:28.809-05:002014-02-12T12:39:28.809-05:00That is hysterical!
