The mother-in-law came and for some reason laid out her cot in the kitchen.

Young people always strive to live by their own rules, and therefore separate from others. Including parents. However, life is such a thing that it can always make adjustments. Here comes a young mother, for example, home, and in the kitchen is a cot. Well, because mother-in-law came.



This story, like many others, is for thought. We're in the newsroom. "Site" We always strive to show the heterogeneity of events that happen to us. What we perceive as good is not always good, and vice versa, what seems bad is not always bad. And now the narrative itself.

My mother-in-law said, I always knew I wouldn’t live with my parents. It’s nothing wrong, it’s just a decision made in the process of growing up. I consider myself completely independent and want to manage my life one hundred percent. My future husband was convinced when we met.



Our romance was not too long, our relationship developed for about six months, after which we happily married. A few months later I realized I was expecting a baby. Who would have known what awaited me? After the wedding, we moved into a nice one-bedroom apartment, and I was convinced that I would handle everything perfectly.

I boldly took on the lion’s share of household chores, and it was even a joy for me, since I had long dreamed of my family and my small, but cozy apartment. That was until my son was born. I had absolutely no experience in this case, so gradually I just lost my feet.



I thought that if a child cries, it is necessarily bad, so I constantly watched it. And the little tomboy never let me go for a minute. At the end of the day, I was just doing it and nothing else. My husband tried to support me, but since he is constantly at his main job, plus he still has a small business, he is almost never at home.

Gradually, our cozy mink began to turn into an ugly stable. I did not have time to clean, wash, or even cook anything. Two months later, I just stopped doing anything and went into deep stress. Of course, it all came down to my husband. Thank God he survived this period.



One weekend my mother-in-law came to visit. She lives in a nearby district center, she has long wanted to visit. And it was a day of bliss. Because she cleaned up, and she stuffed the fridge with food, and she took the boy away for a couple of hours. Honestly, I just fell on the bed and passed out.

But then my mother-in-law left and it all started again. I was scared to look at myself in the mirror because I had changed so much. I wonder what my husband thought about that? Thank goodness my mother-in-law came back the following weekend and even decided to spend the night. And this weekend, I was completely out.



When my mother-in-law left again, I felt how broken I was mentally and physically. It's been another four months. I decided to get some air and went with the baby to my parents. They live far away. I got home comfortably, rested for a week and returned home after the holidays. That's where the news caught me.

In the kitchen I found a cot and many boxes on the balcony. It turned out that the mother-in-law had come forever. It so happened that she was left without an apartment, which she laid for her son, for some time interrupted her friends, and when her husband called her to live with us, at the same time help with the child, she gladly agreed.



At first I was against it, but my mother-in-law took over the house, freeing my hands completely. Since then, I could only work with a child, and on weekends run to a beauty salon and go to a restaurant with my husband! So I rethinked my relationship with my parents.

It has been three years since then and we have another baby. We moved into a bigger apartment, now my mother-in-law has her own room, and the boys are still growing up. What can I say? We feel great and we are doing well. My mother-in-law, by the way, is a very good and kind woman, will always take my side. A real second mom. That's what I call her!
