In honor of in-laws

I just read about the recent passing of Moe's mother-in-law. I have been pondering the relationships we have with our in-laws.

What do you appreciate about your in laws?

Mi suegro es un hombre extraordinario. Tiene unos 85 años y es ferozmente independiente. Se alistó en el ejército a los 17 años después de Pearl Harbor (mintió sobre su edad), y luchó en la Batalla de Guadalcanal. Es terco, generoso y expresa sus opiniones claramente.

I don't have any in-laws because my husband's parents are dead. However, my husband says that my mother, his mother-in-law, is one of his very favorite people in the world.


No tengo suegros porque las padres de mi esposo se murieron. Sin embargo, mi esposo dice que mi mardre, su suegra, es una de sus personas favoritas del mundo.
