My son in law is the best!

I am so lucky that I have the nicest son in law. Not only has he made my daughter happy but he treats me like his own mum. Sadly his mum died when he was 17 in traumatic circumstances so for a long time he has been without her as he is now 33.
They are coming down next weekend and hopefully we will all go out for a meal to have a late celebration of Christmas and the New Year. It's nice to get on with family and I count myself lucky that my daughter was lucky enough to find such a lovely man.

I think we all find it nerve wracking when we first meet but I found him so easy to get on with.

@sprite1950 I met the mom of my husband when I worked for him. She came to his office to ask for a translation (that I did) and my husband tells me all the time that she was so much impressed by me that she hoped all the time that one day I would have become his wife.

It is. All we ever want is for our kids to be happy so when they meet a good person it is the best feeling.

I hope you do. My daughter had a boyfriend before him that I was worried about but I knew right away that this one would always look after her.

@LowRiderX She is a good girl and even as a child she was easy to manage. I have a son who is just the opposite. It's odd how two children can be brought up exactly the same yet be so different.

@sprite1950 I guess the mom of the love of his life will be much closer to his heart.

Maybe although he does have a step mum that he gets on with because his dad remarried. He was grown up by the time they met though.

@Lushlala It's so much easier if you can get along with the in laws. I know some people who hate theirs and it must make life so complicated.

@moffittjc I think it's just a sign that we are getting on in years. Also looking back at the fashions some of them were quite laughable.

@sprite1950 I say the same thing about young girls today. They were never that attractive when I was younger! haha

That is very important that he not only treats your daughter like a princess but he also treats you like a mother since his passed away. You both are very lucky that he is very special.

Yes we are. I didn't like some of her other boyfriends in the past as I didn't think they treated her well but he is wonderful to her.

@Hannihar We have a saying here "You have to kiss a few frogs before you find your prince" and I suppose that's true. I'm so glad she found this man.

He lost his mum in traumatic circumstances when he was 17 and just wanted to meet someone special. He was so happy when he met my daughter.

Absolutely. So many marriages fail today so it is good to see a young couple blissfully happy.
