[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP —thanks everyone. It was pretty chill to help out when the first two each arrived but now the adults are outnumbered...and we’re all a little older! Mostly I don’t want to ask my sister a million questions. [/quote] You can avoid the million questions by asking a few direct ones, like, [b]"What would be most helpful to you? I'm happy to do laundry or cook some dinner, unless you'd rather me take the older kids out."[/b][/quote] THIS. Because your sister may be laundry queen and have that handled. She may be: OMIGOD, take these big kids OUT of here! She may be: Husband will take big kids out, you stay and chat with me and make dinner for the family. She may be: take this baby and let me SHOWER. so asking this exact, specific, question with specific offers (rather than "how can I help?" will be the best. [/quote]
