[quote=Anonymous]We have this too, the imbalance of geographic distances. My parents are the farther away ones. So, yes, we see the ILs regardless. It's kind of annoying, but part of the fun of Christmas is seeing the kids open their presents, and I have come to accept it. This is one of those times where I think you've got to overcome your annoyance...think about what you would want when you are a grandparent. Model for your kids what you would want, even as you miss your own parents. But by all means, make it work for you! Tell them which weekend works best, put it off until MLK weekend, ask them to come to you for one night, whatever. Or another option is to do Christmas at Thanksgiving with them if you'll see them then. Too late for that this year, but suggest it the next time.[/quote]
