You really must miss her. She sounds like a wonderful, warm person. An absolute treasure. My mother in law makes me feel very included too, and is always asking my husband to bring me to visit. She loves having me around. I just wish I could talk with her properly though. I'm so limited by my Hindi, which doesn't yet extend to in depth conversations. I'm so inspired to hear that you spoke to your MIL in Hindi, AND that you've been living in Delhi for so long! I don't think there can ever be enough blogs in this field because everyone has such different experiences. :-) Frances, that’s so sad about your mother in law. You really must miss her.

She was quiet and gentle, and always did her best to make me feel like her daughter rather than her daughter-in-law. We always spoke in Hindi because she was very shy about her (quite good) English, and very understanding about my mistakes! I love your blog - I've sometimes wondered if I should write one, but the field of foreign bahus living in India is pretty well covered, it seems! (I've been in Delhi for most of the 16 years we've been married.) You make me miss my MIL, who passed away nearly 4 years ago.

I remember having to entertain my mother in law alone the first couple of times - it is stressful! It helps to have a friendly, funny mother in law, though, which it seems you do! This is very nice.

Funnily, one of my cousins, when she was a little girl, said the same thing years back. Hillarious, the “come here” business!
