mummy2girls wrote: Marcus told me that when he was at Chruch with his family his mom approached him and said she wants me and jenna to come over for dinner at her place one evening ohmy.gif She wants to get to know me and jenna better. I am so nrevous guys! I have met her but only in brief encounters nothing where we will be sitting for dinner and talking throughout the evening. Yes she wa sthere when i went to his sisters for thanksgiving but she was more with her granddaughter and helping with dinner so we couldnt really talk.

Im so nrevous because ive heard horror stories of moms of sons...EEEEK!!!!

any words of wisdom?

sparkys2boys replied: it sounds like she may be a great person, she made the first move. Give her a chance and go from there. Good luck, let us know how it goes!!

luvbug00 replied: Sorry I'm no help, I alreaddy know lars's mom from childhood. GOOD LUCK!

hoosier momma replied: Just be yourself. She is probably nervous too!

kit_kats_mom replied: just be yourself. she raised Marcus right so she's probably just fine.

stella6979 replied: All I can say is BE YOURSELF. I find that lots of people will try too hard to impress the "in-laws" but obviously Marcus thinks enough of you to introduce you to his family and that says it all right there. Of course you want to make a good impression and have his Mother like you, but I live by this saying...."be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind, don't matter, and those who matter, don't mind." I'm sure she'll love both you and Jenna. smile.gif

lisar replied: Just be yourself. I dont put on a show for my MIL.

luvmykids replied: Just try to relax. I know it's daunting but I think based on what we've heard about Marcus she's probably a really neat lady. Good luck and try to enjoy!

CantWait replied: I don't think you have anything to worry about. Obviously from those brief encounters she has liked you, and Marcus has probably been saying a lot of nice things as well. Good Luck either way, I'm still nervous when I go to the "inlaws". rolling_smile.gif

Calimama replied:
Yep! And be yourself! It'll be easier than you think I bet! hug.gif

amymom replied: i think you will do well. Enjoy, Relax and be yourself, what more could Marcus want from you. Have a great time.

redchief replied: If it was Marcus' mom's suggestion, I wouldn't expect you to see the protective mother claws out just yet, especially since Jenna was also invited. I think it will be fine. And I know I'm one of the boys, but I also know how to handle a controlling mother, and this doesn't sound like that to me. sleep.gif
