We often hear stories in which mothers-in-law are depicted as evil. Sadly, they sometimes really are and the reason behind it might be that they feel like their daughters-in-law ‘steal’ their sons from them.
A woman named Janisse shared the story of how her MIL plotted against her in order to turn her husband against her.
It was Janisse’s husband’s birthday and she was looking forward to the party she was preparing for him. She planned to invite all of Carl’s friends and family and wanted everything to go according to plan.
But just as she was getting ready to start preparing the food, Carl’s mother, Sally, called her and told her she wanted to help her with the preparations.
As Janisse always got along with her husband’s family, or at least she thought so, she told her MIL that she was more than welcome to lend her a helping hand.
When Sally arrived, she did help with the food, but in the afternoon, she started acting weird. As she was digging around the fridge and sighed every few minutes, she accused Janisse of not purchasing certain ingredient she needed for some special cookies.
“I can’t find any ingredients for the cookies I wanted to make. I told you that I would make the cookies I’ve made every year for Carl,” Sally said.
“We have so many desserts and the cake as well. So, I think it’s okay. We can do it another day for him,” Janisse told her.
“Janisse,” Sally sighed. “It’s really important to me, okay? It’s a tradition I started when Carl was only three years old. Can you go out and get the ingredients?”
As there was not much time left until the guests were about to arrive, Janisse decided to go to the store, which wasn’t that far, and grab the ingredients her MIL needed.
On her way home, Janisse felt like a superhero because she knew the party would be a great one, but her joy was short lived.
The moment Janisse opened the car’s door, Carl burst out of the house like she’d committed a crime and he wanted to catch her in the act. He accused her of leaving his mother all alone to prepare everything for the party. When she explained that wasn’t the case and it wasn’t as it looked like, he told her she wasn’t telling the truth.
Janisse tried to tell him that she was the one who prepared most of the food and that she only took a short trip to the store to grab the ingredients for the traditional cookies his mom made for him, but he said there were no such cookies and that she was childish to believe that ‘cookie tradition.’
Still unaware what was going on, Janisse went to her room. She had a quick shower and shortly after the guests started to arrive.
Carl avoided Janisse all evening, and when the time came for the cake to be served it was Sally who brought it to the table and started singing “Happy Birthday.”
Sally acted as though she was host and it looked like she was the one who was throwing the party for her son, not Janisse.
When the guests left and Janisse and Carl were alone, she tried to explain what really happened and that his mom plotted against her, but he didn’t want to listen because he was certain his mom would never do such a thing.
The following morning, Carl woke Janisse up and apologized for not trusting her. Janisse was puzzled and asked him what made him change his mind about the entire situation. He then explained that his mother was bragging to someone about her master plan, but she accidentally sent the message to Carl.
Carl then went to the other room, in which his mom spent the night, and tried to talk to her in order to learn why she would do such a horrible thing. It turned out that contrary to what Janisse believed, her MIL didn’t really like her because of her political and religious beliefs. Janisse was shocked because her MIL never mentioned anything about it before.
However, no matter what Sally did, Carl and Janisse decided to forgive her eventually.
“We’re going to Bali to celebrate your birthday next year,” I told him. “No friends, no family, and absolutely no drama!” Janisse told her husband.
Chrissy Teigen Shares Photos of Her Kids, and People Keep Noticing the Same Worrying Detai
Chrissy Teigen recently shared a series of sweet photos capturing her two youngest children. While many people found the pictures adorable, others spotted a concerning detail. They quickly commented on it, causing a stir in the comments.
The 38-year-old model shared a series of photos on her Instagram account featuring her two youngest children—daughter Esti, 18 months, and son Wren, 13 months. “Almost home to you!!!! Grateful to our household of love who fills our iCloud album daily while we bring home the bacon,” she wrote, adding a playful note about her husband, John Legend, calling him “the luxe pancetta.”
In the first photo, Wren is sitting on the floor, sipping from a cup, surrounded by his toys, including a small Target shopping cart. The following two pictures capture Esti playing with a hairless cat and sitting at a piano, wearing a pink dress with a matching headband.
The series of photos continues with a shot of Wren grinning at the camera while enjoying a plate of pasta. Teigen has been on the go this summer, recently returning from a trip to Paris where she watched the 2024 Summer Olympics. During the trip, her choice of outfit stirred up some controversy. She returned home from her European travels last week, sharing on Instagram that she was “back with my littles.”
While many people commented on how adorable Teigen’s children look, some were worried about the model being away from her kids so often. “How many nannies do you have? I bet you miss your mom being there with you,” one follower wrote. “I’m sure the kids would rather have their parents at home. Do you really need to work another day in your life?” another asked.
But most people supported Teigen as a working mom and noted how beautiful her kids looked. “Happy parents = happy kids,” someone commented. “Enjoy seeing your beautiful family! Always looking so happy and smiling,” another user wrote. “Cuteness overload!!! These pics are sweet like sugar, just like the whole family,” another follower agreed.
When Chrissy Teigen shared unfiltered photos from her family vacation, many praised her for not being ashamed of her “mom body.” She embraced her body’s “imperfections” and inspired many women who might be worried about how their bodies look after having children. Many people left warm comments on her pictures, thanking her for being so honest and open.
