Don't be scared of this. Remember you're not actually family. If they could get rid of you to save money they would. I love love my employer and they're amazing but I'm not naive. Few scenarios here:
They counter and show you you're valued - great
They can't match or afford you - up to you to stay or leave for more money
They get mad at you because you went somewhere else - if it's a good place they won't, they understand life. If they actually get mad at you then you don't want to work there anyway.
