Vacationing With My Boyfriend’s Family Tomorrow, His Mom Fills A Hole In My Heart ❤️ (Mine Passed When I Was 18, So Blessed With A Mil Like Her)
My boyfriends parents both, but especially his mom, they treat me like I’m their own. This will be my 3rd vacation with them, we always meet at their house and drive south together. I adore his whole family, I love that they love me too, and his mom is my best friend. Whenever we go to their house for dinner, I can hardly get in the door before she squeals, “my wine drinking buddy is here!” & pours me a glass. 🤣🥰 I lost my mom to cancer when I was 18, and I was very close with her. Nobody will ever replace her, but having such a loving MIL who makes sure to always include me and tell me she loves me, it certainly does some healing things for the soul. ❤️
