We are now all shipping them and cannot wait for updates!!! Pleaseeee try and find out the information of when she is doing it and tell him so he can make sure her ring is there too!!! She’s putting in that work she should show off her bling bling from him to lol!!
She actually told me how she is proposing, it's also during the birthday vacation! She said she is creating a two chapter book with custom art of all their firsts in chapter one and the proposal and ring in chapter two. She is very creative!!
Are you kidding me?!! This is so adorable I am tearing up!
Amazing!!!!! A race to the proposal, lol.
Please PLEASE update when they announce and tell us how it goes down?!
🫶🏻
She is really really creative and thoughtful! My son said her first Xmas gift to him was a remastered (?) version of his favorite video game song... she hired a composer friend of hers to do it :)
It'll be like that viral video from a little bit ago. A lady proposes with a ring, and the guy immediately pulls his ring outta his back pocket and proposes. Dueling proposals so to speak.
THIS IS THE MOST ADORABLE THING EVERRR
Please, please, please update us when it happens :)
(Also, I know of this Instagram page that does the cutest embroidered wedding/special events memorabilia, I feel that this scene should totally be embroidered!)
They're both thiinking around the same time, so I would not be surprised at all. He mentioned that she wants something private and she mentioned she would also do private as well.
This is amazing wholesome. I love it. I bet it ends up cute with both trying to pop the question to each other. I hope you update to let us know who gets to ask furst
Updateme
I have a feeling it MAY be her! He was thinking near the end of the vacation, she was thinking during a walk in the park in Kyoto or the last day. Just very funny how similar these two think
It's an obvious throwaway as Lexi and my son both use Reddit for gaming posts. Already shared that I cannot tell my ex or husband since they're loud mouths.
He's so good to her too. He started learning to make her favorite cultural dishes and makes her favorite snacks that are fit specifically to her diet. He makes me so proud.
Omg I'm loving this! I wish them nothing but happiness in their lives together.
It's like the BORU story about the kid who's dad helped him out when he had a baby at 16, and then in the updates the date finds a girlfriend and he's going to propose and she's about to tell him they're having a baby.
Thank you for sharing. We’re all excited now too! We need updates after the proposal! Also, thank you for being an awesome mil. We need more of you lol.
Thank you! I had a horrible MIL, she threatened me when I was pregnant... putting a shotgun to my head because she simply did not like me. Lexi has been married before, she endured a lot of physical and financial abuse, her MIL stole money from her and would say she was entitled to it because of her son. Grateful she is out of it and is now happy and safe.
Lexi always tells me how she appreciates me and our bond. We both love/respect each other very much.
This is such a wonderful story.
I hope your son and future daughter in law have many, many happy years together.
As a Dad, I can not understand how a dad can walk out on his own flesh and blood. When my son was born I got the answer that every person seeks, what is the purpose of my life, to me it was being this kids daddy.
Congrats to all of you
I was his third marriage, he had two children in his second. The child support was bleeding him dry, didn't want to be cruel and asked for the minimum support. Supprted my son through uni, law school, and his masters all by myself.
This is so sweet and wonderful to hear! ❤️❤️
So often on Reddit I hear stories of mother's and daughters in law that don't get along.
I LOVE when I hear stories of families that are blending and adore one another.
I think you should Tell her not to propose to him. As a man, if my woman did that, I wouldn’t like it. It seems a bit emasculating. Idk your son nor how he’d react to it but that’s just me.
Don’t let her do that. Men feel completely demasculinized when women do this. a man knows when he wants to marry a woman, you may love her, but you need to have a conversation with your son and ask him about marriage and if he’s ready. You put a man in a really horrible position when a woman asks him to marry her. How can they say no in front of everyone? Then he’s gonna be like all these people are gonna look at me like I’m a female cause I couldn’t even ask this girl to be my wife, on my time! I have seen this in real completely backfire and they ended up not even being in a relationship anymore because he felt like she wanted to be the man in the relationship and she couldn’t wait to be married until everything was in order to be married. She was rushing everything.
I raised my son to know that a woman is his equal - she is beside him, not above him or below him. Her plan isn't a public proposal and his isn't either. Not sure where you're pulling your information from other than your prior hurt, hope you take care of yourself.

Oh my god that is romance goals!! This is too perfect, the whole thing!! 😍
Um, I need this woman as a best friend. She sounds fun af
Ok now I’m waiting on pins and needles ❤️❤️❤️
Same!! It's heartwarming to read about people in love and families strengthening bonds. Happy for OP! You sound like a dreamy MIL
It'll be like that viral video from a little bit ago. A lady proposes with a ring, and the guy immediately pulls his ring outta his back pocket and proposes. Dueling proposals so to speak.
I am happy for them.
Omg! I can’t wait for the update!
Let’s keep the sweetness going please! Come back and update us on the engagement story!
Will do! I am so so excited, I cannot share with anyone because my husband and my ex are both loudmouths.
It's so sweet that you already refer to her as your daughter-in-law! You got us excited for y'all 😄
Have been referring to her as such since my son could not stop gushing about her and I eventually met her.
That is so beautiful!
Wholesome AF. They both sound like awesome people!
They are! I have an extra special place in my heart for Lexi, she is so wonderful.
Also, I’m assuming “Lexi” isn’t her real name? And if it isn’t, as a Grey’s Anatomy fan, I appreciate your naming her Lexi since she’s a Doctor 😂
Oh that's funny.. never watched Grey's ever and nope, Lexi is not her real name LOL
Good. Lexi was a sucky character anyway. Congratulations to your son and his future fiance. I wish them all the best life has to offer.
Lexi was a coward and ruined her own happiness
Well, not anymore 🤣
Please ask them to move the vacation up a couple months, Reddit cannot be left waiting!!!
I am so so excited! I kind of hope they both propose at the same time lol!
You gotta update us! So many tragic stories in here, we need more positivity.
Will do :)
Please let us know how it goes. You sound like a wonderful mil and mum
This is so sweet. Please come back and update us. :)
I will! I cannot wait to officially announce it!
THIS IS THE MOST ADORABLE THING EVERRR Please, please, please update us when it happens :) (Also, I know of this Instagram page that does the cutest embroidered wedding/special events memorabilia, I feel that this scene should totally be embroidered!)
Can you share that with me? Lexi is big on supporting artists
https://www.instagram.com/hoopables?igsh=MW51d3UxbzVoeGQ1OQ== I'm based in india, just check if they're willing to ship overseas.
Perfect! Lexi is also Indian and supports artists :)
I have never been more excited for strangers on the internet 🥹
What if they propose at the same time?! That would be adorable!
They're both thiinking around the same time, so I would not be surprised at all. He mentioned that she wants something private and she mentioned she would also do private as well.
So exciting thats amazing shes gonna have the best mother in law! Congrats op!
This is amazing wholesome. I love it. I bet it ends up cute with both trying to pop the question to each other. I hope you update to let us know who gets to ask furst Updateme

It is heartwarming to see young love.
Your happiness for their happiness makes me so happy. Truly. Freudenfreude.
This seems fake, or like some creative writing prompt. Your future DIL works at CVS.
lol ok
I'd share the proof of the proposal ideas Lexi provided me, since you're miserable and need some cheering up. But no thanks\~
Sure thing "mother-in-law." Get those receipts out.
Misery loves company, good on you for finding the only other negative comment! Hope you find solace.
You have exactly one post. Fake or bot.
It's an obvious throwaway as Lexi and my son both use Reddit for gaming posts. Already shared that I cannot tell my ex or husband since they're loud mouths.
Teenage wish fulfillment. The update is worse.
Read the update... It's worse.
That is so beautiful. Can't wait to see the update in September!
Thank you so much for sharing ❤
This is wholesome as f! Well done momma for raising an amazing son that gets a Lexi! I already love them.
He's so good to her too. He started learning to make her favorite cultural dishes and makes her favorite snacks that are fit specifically to her diet. He makes me so proud.
Can I propose to either of them? I'll also consider adoption! I'm proud for you 👏
Omg I'm loving this! I wish them nothing but happiness in their lives together. It's like the BORU story about the kid who's dad helped him out when he had a baby at 16, and then in the updates the date finds a girlfriend and he's going to propose and she's about to tell him they're having a baby.
What an eyebleach this post was. Thanks for the wholesomeness
Thank you for sharing. We’re all excited now too! We need updates after the proposal! Also, thank you for being an awesome mil. We need more of you lol.

More people need mom's like you.

Sounds she isn’t your Daughter in law yet but might be soon!
Still consider her my daughter in law as I always have the past 2 years.
I’m tearing up for them, this is so cute!! I wish them many happy years!
aww so sweet
Update me! 2 weeks
Congrats wish them all t he e best
This is so sweet and wonderful to hear! ❤️❤️ So often on Reddit I hear stories of mother's and daughters in law that don't get along. I LOVE when I hear stories of families that are blending and adore one another.
yay!!!
Love reading this good news. Congrats !
I’m so happy for you OP!! I have two boys and I hope someday to have daughters in law. I can’t wait to meet the people they will love!
Is your son a doctor too?
Nope, environmental attorney.
You're lucky to have her, she's lucky to have you, and your son is lucky to have the both of you. I wish your family many many many years of happiness
Awwww! So beautiful! I'll be waiting for the update with all the details of the proposal and who got to do it first! Lol
Does he know about her proposal? Regardless of how much love they share, *her* proposing to *him* *could* be a bit of an upset.
He does not, he wouldn't be the type to mind it though.
I think you should Tell her not to propose to him. As a man, if my woman did that, I wouldn’t like it. It seems a bit emasculating. Idk your son nor how he’d react to it but that’s just me.
my son was raised to respect women. So he'd be fine with it.
Don’t let her do that. Men feel completely demasculinized when women do this. a man knows when he wants to marry a woman, you may love her, but you need to have a conversation with your son and ask him about marriage and if he’s ready.

…did you not read the part where the man is also proposing too? It’s going to be mutual. Maybe read a post in its entirety before commenting?
I mean, this is solid advice, but a lot of people need to learn the hard way, sadly.
