That is one thing I feared before I got married (when I was 🎶Young, Free & Single🎶) is if I was going to get along with my in-laws. Yikes!
Fortunately, I met my best friend & love of my life and he has a great family. Of course they're not perfect...but shiiiii, who is?!? They're just perfect AND crazy enough to be in my life. =)
Growing up I saw so many relationships between women and their m-i-l's that were so bad that it not only effected the wife's marriage or the husband and mother's relationship but also the children between them as well. Smh all bad, huh? Haha My family is far from perfect but hell what can you do, right? Lol
But we've been using a lot of our free time driving down to Spring City (approx 2 hours from where we live) and spending some QT with her. She's going through a lot of personal things right now and what she needs is our support and unconditional love. "No judging, just loving!" From day one she's always welcomed and loved me with wide opened arms and boy was that a relief for me when we got married.
Almost 5 years later and we're closer than we've ever been. She's teaching me to quilt, we both love cowboy caviar (but it has to be from Terrell's), we have our own one-on-one personal and inspirational talks & of course we always laugh together!
Thank you Mom for being such a great woman and another wonderful mother in my life. I love you.
