.... I don't think Jane minds that much. She's a motherly little body and having her husband as her eldest child isn't going to trouble her too much. I think that like many quiet people she's probably as stubborn as a jinny-ass and would dig her heels in to stand up for her children and husband at need. And as she's managed to remain determinedly sweet and naive despite her mother, I doubt that she's going to be bullied by her sisters-in-law, having learned the ability to permit unpleasantness to float off her, like water from a duck's back. Jane is deep, and she is also quite phlegmatic and takes life as she finds it - flaws and weaknesses in her loved ones along with the things she loves them for. [sorry, what awful grammar in that last sentence. I have a headache so please forgive...]
