question about names
| Sat, 01-23-2010 - 6:22am |
What do your dil's and sil's call you? (to your face that is LOL)
I just sent an em to ds's fiancee with photos of xmas, etc and signed out Love, Mom. I'm thinking that was OK to do, but then again,, maybe not? I'm not really into first names and anyway it would not be something that's acceptable in Turkey (to call a mil by her first name) and I guess I could have waited til they got married but then again why... right. hmmm what do you think?

Don't have SIL/DIL yet, but I can tell you how hubby and I addressed each others parents.
Hubby addressed my parents by their first names, Margaret and Melvin. I addressed his parents by Maman and Baba (Farsi for mom and dad). Not sure how we came to that decision, but it probably was mutual by all parties involved.
As for any future SIL/DIL, I'm fine if they address me by either. Whatever makes them comfortable. I'm sure your future DIL was just fine with signing the e-mail, "Love Mom" and didn't think a thing about it.

Hi....my sil's call me by my name (would rather that)
I always called my in-laws by thier name too !!
I think signing the email by your first name untill they are married,then changing it to mom.
Von.
I think your future dil will smile all over her face when she opens the email and I also think that it is
Hadn't thought about that aspect, but I don't think he'll see it as a conflict... he calls me mommie anyway.
