To find it a tad strange that my pils of 10 years sent me a birthday card with daughter on it and signed mum and dad.

[NOgirlsallowed]

DH thought it was nice but I thought it was strange. I've always adressed them by there first names and the card said daughter not daughter in law on it. Should probably take it as a complement that they think that much of me but I felt very uncomfortable. Even hid the card when my parents came round to babysit and just displayed their "daughter" card. Am I being silly?

No not being silly to think of your parents and their feelings.

It's a bit of a compliment if they see you as a daughter I think.

My Mum always calls my Nan (Dad's Mum) as "Mum" and she sends my Mum Daughter cards too.

how many threads are there with this? i'm counting three.

I think that it is charming that they think of you as a dd.

Cherish them!
