[quote=Anonymous]OP back here. Yup they're living a very happy life and I couldn't be happier for them. After working very hard for so many years my brother landed a wonderful job while ago, they're living in a dream home and they're very excited about this next phase - adding children to the family.

I completely agree with PP who mentioned it's different when it's your brother/sister's kids than SIL/BIL's kids... the problem is that I have no family here int he US at all so it's pretty lonely.

DH doesn't have any siblings so my brother and SIL are the only aunt/uncle our children will have. I often send her gifts and she says thank you through my brother. I just wish we were friends. My mom is such good friends with my dad's sisters I guess I was just hoping to build such a relationship with her.

I'm pretty good at not saying anything to my brother and my mom keeps asking me if I'm talking to her. I tell my mom I'm doing my best but I still feel like it's not enough.  They go to my parent's house every other weekend and there's always pictures or a post about the meal they shared or what they did together. My mom loves her and I only wish she were a little more open to us who're far away missing them dearly.
