A poem for my sister-in-law's 50th - by Mum
Mum wrote this for Jen's 50th birthday - it's acommpanied by a drawing mum did of Jen when she first met her.
As a bit of background, before Martin brought Jen home , Mum had dreamed she had met his future wife - she described her to us and as it happened Martin had just got involved with Jen (he had known her tangentially for a few months I think but hadn't talked about her) - Mum's description fitted Jen to a tee. a dream - there she was a beautiful girl with black hair playing with the dogs our lovely pair ......................... and then later you were really there the beautiful girl with black hair bringing laughter and fun while holding the heart of my son and so your new adventure was begun just eighteen and full of life three years later becoming a wife what a joyous time exciting and fun then it turned magical, as you became a mum and I felt so honoured that you let me share the arrival of our two beautiful girls with the black hair you were an amazing mum and wife right from the start loving your girls and man with your big heart you've loved and nourished your family all down the years comforting and supporting during any of their fears with a successful career you worked very hard to get going from strength to strength and you've not finished yet the loveliest of mums and such a loving wife you've done a damn fine job so far in your life I'm full of love and admiration for all that you have done and still down all the years you've kept your laughter and your fun so I wish you all the happiness as the second half is begun with massive birthday wishes now your 50th has come Loads of love Jen BambabsXxx

My sis in law loved her poem (and accompanying picture, printed together on silk paper and rolled up like a scroll :P)

Ma is the class act - she did it all including getting it onto a scroll.
