Just wanted to share

  I asked my FMIL to go with me to pick out my dress along with my own mother,grandmother, sister, and two best friends. when i asked her i think i heard some real emotion in her voice although i couldn't tell because we were on the phone it was excitement and something else it think. 
    Although my FI and i have been together for five years i havent' gotten to know his mom the way i would like because of the distance between us its not very easy to just pop over or something. So when FI asked me to marry him and i saw me getting my dress i saw her with me. She does not have any daughters and only two sons but one of the sons has special needs and will never get married. So i thought this would be her only chance to go wedding gown shopping. and a great way to get to know her better.
   I called her today and asked her and she was just really happy i and greatful that i thought of her to go. I know that i did the right thing and i definitley think this will help us to become closer. She also said that she did not know how involved i wanted her to be and i said i want her involved as much as she wanted to be.
        I just have one of those feelings in my hear that i know i did something right and for the right reasons. Just wanted to share.

    I'm also asking my FMIL to join me dress shopping. She also has only two sons, and this will probably be her only chance to go wedding dress shopping as well. I'm not sure if she'll be able to join me as she lives in another state, but I do love her very much and hope that she can. 

    I'm glad that this worked out for you. It's a very sweet thing that you've done.

    You too evabo. Hopefully yours will be able to make it mine lives in the state but still pretty far away that's why i chose the david's bridal in beverton because its kind of a halfway point between us since i live in Milwaukie and she lives in Gaston. I'm really looking forward to getting to know her better.
