[quote=Anonymous]I so feel for you OP - I would be heart broken.  Maybe I've had too many toxic people in my life, but my instinct screams that she got something out of the stuff.  Meaning she either sold it (needs the money) or gave it away to either the other grandbaby or someone she knows (an image thing). I don't really understand my MIL. DS is her first grandchild and she puts out this image of being so over the moon to DH and everyone else, but she makes no effort for DS and I've caught her in weird lies. Like DH's grandmother gave my MIL a present for DS and instead of giving it to DS she kept it for her daughter's 'future' babies. Just weird.

Now my mother is a neat freak who always has to be doing something and reno's something else in her house every few months.  She always complains about the stuff we've stored in her attic (also small condo) and threatens to go through and pitch everything.  So I understand the compulsion, but she knows there is a line.  Your MIL crossed it.  Very happy to hear DH sided with you, still waiting for my own DH to do that, but she ways way out of line.  I would keep your interactions with her in check.[/quote]
