I'm glad you have a good relationship with your in-laws. I'll bet they will be there for you for the rest of your life..no matter where they live! My newest DIL has a bad relationship with her parents, in fact they haven't spoken for almost 2 years. She is a wonderful person..just got her RN BSN..and loves my son alot! I would do anything to help fill the hole in her heart left by her parents. I'm sure your MIL feels the same about you or you wouldn't love her so much
God bless you, sweetie..you are in my prayers.
