The big question is: How can I return to normal life now that I am no longer Mother-of-the-Bride but Mother-in-Law?

It helps that I am still in Maine where it is a beautiful day with acres of diamonds on the lake. Everyone has left and I am busy doing laundry. But dancing in my head are wonderful visions of that magical night--the loving couple under the chuppa, happiness and love flowing all round them, joy so intense it was almost tangible.

At times like this, how sweet it is to be a parent.
