Aw, his. I hope it's for you the way it is with H and my family. I know they had their reservations, but post marriage they have come to love him more. I mean seriously, they adore him, I'm practically chopped liver now, LOL. I know part of that is seeing how happy he makes me. I'm hopeful you'll get to see your daughter experience the same joy as they start their married life together. (((his)))

His, my mom is still the person I call when I get good news, or am sad, or need something. You two are so close. Nothing is going to change that. Nothing. She loves you, she's not far away, and in fact, I bet you'll even get closer as she faces the sometimes tough first year of marriage. And you'll be so happy that day, and proud, and sure, a little sad. But you're going to see her happiness it's going to be catching. Bc you made her a happy start and now she's off to start something new
There is that saying - A son is a son until he gets a wife. A daughter is a daughter for life.
Also, grandbabies!
ok, i have to hate you now. and then cry.
Aw, sorry. I kind of do hate this saying. I hope we can teach our children better. Also, I know I am not as shitty of a parent as my ILs, so I think maybe both DD & DS might still talk to me later. I am pretty sure that you have a good chance of that too, @smace face. (just FYI, I call you SMACE-face in my head. LOL! I don't know why)

Okay I will try to help even though I missed your hour of drunken need last night! Let me tell you that I have always loved and respected my mom, but it was really only since I've been married that I feel like we have an awesome relationship. My mom is absolutely my best friend now, and we have gotten so much closer.
A girl needs her mom forever! And having her be truly out on her own starting her own family takes a lot of the old pressure off that mother/daughter relationship.
I actually didn't like my mom when I was younger and our relationship only got better after I married and then MUCH better after having kids. So, you're already on your way to maintaining a great relationship!
