MY MIL is ace really lovely but I could never call her MUM. I think you only ever have one mum, would feel disrespectful to my own if I did. So in answer to your question I call her by her name x0

I call my MIL Satan's Sidekick... Thankfully her and hubby aren't talking at the minute so I don't have to talk to her...
I do sometimes call FIL Pops though... That's what hubby calls him, and my Dad's Dad so it doesn't seem wrong...A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...My Fathers Daughter wrote: »Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

My MIL is great, we get on like a house on fire
