in laws

My son has been "going out" with the same girl all year at school.

She is adorable, and nice, and funny and well, lots of great things, and we love her. My girls ADORE her and worship the ground she walks on.

We wish that they were at least 21, but what's a mom (or dad, or anyone for that matter) to do?

Last night at Arica's wedding reception we FINALLY met our "future in laws" (her parents).

(It's not like elementary school where you know everyone's parents...you're lucky if your kids bring their friends home in high school to meet YOU--we *parents* have finally reached "full dork mode".)

Fortunately, we liked them.

We were greeted by them with hugs and they seem VERY nice. They said they like our son too, which is a BIG PLUS in our book.

They were so nice, in fact, that if Josh eventually ends up marrying Whitney at some point in the future, he may like THEM better than US.


I told him he has to break up with her IMMEDIATELY and find some meaner in laws for us.*

*(that is a joke of course--sarcasm dripping at its drippiest-just in case anyone didn't "get it")
