When Chris, Jenny and Tyler (Just barely 3 years old) came to live with me 20 years ago, I have to admit it took a while for Jenny and I to get along-After all, can you imagine living with your mother-in-law? Poor girl! But, after a few little spats and minor arguments over really silly little things like differences in how laundry was done and which bread was best for Chris' lunchbox etc., Jen and I learned how to actually laugh and joke about our different opinions and became good friends.
Knowing stairs we hard for me, she became the laundry expert, and took over the whole households loads (not without some complaining of course Lol !) But I will never forget that smile on her face when she would finish a neatly folded basket of clothes. I will miss that smile of hers!
I'm sure you would all agree she had the most catchy loud laugh that no one can or could duplicate! Her and I had many many laugh sessions over the years, ones where we'd end up losing our breath-you know what I mean!? Jenny was the one who would get me out of the house and go have some fun.! Seems it should be the other way around, but she was a go getter, tough gal and never let the seizures keep her down or keep her from going out and finding some fun! We would go to the thrift stores, garage sales, doctor appointments in Rochester, the grocery store, wherever together. While the seizures would happen places we went, she was extremely strong and tough minded to not let it get her down-Next day she'd be ready to go again!! I will miss her!
Our drives around town always consisted of her crazy crazy loud wonderful laughing at some dumb silly thing I'd say and her telling me jokes (some not so clean!) but would crack me up till I'd lose my breath and tears came from laughing so hard, we'd have to pull the car over to recover-I'm going to miss her!!
