mother-in -law

i had a very special mother-in-law she loved us.We loved her.She was use to ruling the roust at her house .She worked till she was 80 taking care of others less fortunate than herself. She was only 4 ft. 9 in. tall but when she talked everyone listened
Mom came to live with when she quit work, she was to live with us six months and with her other son six months. She did like to eat out and always brought enough money to pay for all who ate with her.
One afternoon mom wanted to go to the mall to eat lunch. She came out of her room with her very nice blouse and her long johns on. "o.k. mom we'll go, just put your slacks on. she said "These are my slacks" "No mom those are your long johns" "THESE ARE MY SLACKS" was her reply. "O.k. get in the car......
As we walked through the mall she said "Why is everyone staring at me, oh it is no doubt my hat, no one wares hats around here"
When we arrived home i told my husband what i had done because you just don't argue with mother. He hit the roof " YOU DIDN'T TAKE MY MOTHER TO THE MALL IN HER UNDERWARE?"
"Yes i did."
we are still happily married.........
