[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks for the thoughts - I was just caught off guard that the few days we have planned my SIL wants to crash on. [b]It has been a stressful winter and just getting to a point of a little stability and now need to adjust.[/b] [/quote] Hosting two grandparents versus a whole other family with kids are rather different in stress levels, and you might point that out to DH. With grandparents and your family, you can relax a little, maybe have a date night. Adding in SIL and her family is more chaos. Point this out to DH, make it not about resentment and all that, but simply that you'd like a calmer visit. (And, I'll say it so you don't have too: For heaven's sake, SIL can give up her help for one freaking weekend.)[/quote]
