Being a mom to three boys meant that the wives they chose were the closest I would ever come to having daughters of my own. Lucky for me, they made excellent choices, but I wanted to make sure I did not mess it up.
My mom had a great relationship with her mother-in-law. I was fortunate to have an excellent role model in my mom, who revered her own mother-in-law and often referred to her as a saint.
I made time alone with them. The three girls already felt like part of the family when my eldest son got engaged. To bond the relationship before making it official, I gave each girl a spa certificate for Christmas.
I openly expressed my desire to have a healthy relationship and asked for help in setting boundaries. To this day, I try my best to be discreet and ensure that my questions show genuine interest rather than prying.
