My Mom By The Law

When my marriage fixed the very next thing which came to my mind was, MY MOTHER-IN-Law, yes I was thinking how I need to change my ways, what should I do to gain her attention and like me.

Too many things were running in my mind and I was deeply engrossed about the ways I need to talk to my mother in law and I was grooming myself on this, and I was working on this very seriously, as if I was going to give a performance… I had closely watched one of aunt and her sufferings in her in-laws place and there was always a difference of opinion between them.

The D day came when I met my Mother in law, she walked up to me held my cheek in her hand looked deep into my eyes and gave a kiss to me, I was dumbstruck and taken by a pleasant surprise with such a sweet gesture of my mother in law. MY mother in law actually meant when she told I was like a daughter to her, All my preparations went in vain but I did not regret about that because within seconds I was equally affectionate towards her.

The best part about my mother in law is the way she cuddles me, am sure someday when I get a child she will still cuddle me and treat me her own. It is indeed a special and wonderful feeling to be loved by a mother in law, I have succeeded in gaining my mother in law’s love even without doing anything, that’s when I realized only thing I had to do was to treat her like my own mother and be myself and give her the immense love, care and affection. Then on I started calling her as ‘AMMA’ and I mean it whenever I call her like that.

Time just flies when we both sit to converse, well everything under the sun is our topic, from advices to suggestions to opinions we have it all in our conversations. That’s when I sat back and thought that I am lucky to have got another mom who cares for me.
One quality which I observed and liked in her is no matter what she has a smile on her face, masking all her difficulties and making people to think that she has never had any problem in her life. I have started treating her as my mom and even she has got another daughter, and she even proudly tells to her friends and relatives that I am her daughter!!

That’s why I always feel that she is not a mother in law for me but she is a mother by the law for me, love you mom :) Alright time for me to converse with my mom....
