Two women came before wise King Solomon, dragging between them a young man in a three-piece suit.
“This young lawyer agreed to marry my daughter,” said the first woman.
“No! He agreed to marry MY daughter,” said the other. And so they haggled before the King until he called for silence.
“Bring me my biggest sword,” said Solomon, “and I shall cut the young attorney in half. Each of your daughters shall receive a half.”
“Sounds good to me,” said the first woman.
But the other woman said, “Oh Sire, do not spill innocent blood. Let her daughter marry him.”
The wise king did not hesitate a moment. “The attorney must marry the first lady’s daughter,” he proclaimed.
“But she was willing to cut him in two!” exclaimed second woman.
“Indeed,” said wise King Solomon. “That shows she is the TRUE mother-in-law."
I suppose tomorrow I shall be grateful that my mom and my husband get along so well....

I have nothing to add for now. I just want to see to it that fellow fottspers saw in their inbox that we have a new post...
You should definitely be grateful for that.
Nice. I was anticipating a lawyer joke but got a MIL joke instead. I like the element of surprise.
Good stuff. Who else can we cut in half?
At least my MIL hasn't tried cutting me in half.
NtG,
Yet.....
Dang, Helen. You beat me to it.
Katdish,
Great minds thinking alike and all that...
Besides. When I read this joke in the first place, I thought of Nick and his MIL...
Let's not give NtG's MIL any ideas...
This was a good one Helen. I heart a good MIL joke. Here's my fave:
