[quote=Anonymous]We are international distance away from both sets of grandparents (and even in that country, my side is domestic airplane distance from my husband). So, we never ever expected that we could get their help at all. On the other hand, my sister lives 2 min walking distance from my parents and my parents help with drop off at preschool/cook/entertain at various occasion, so YES, I am envious at times. But, mostly, what I am jealous is that opportunity for my kid to bond with grandparents. Right now, it is once a year that my kid gets a change to meet the grandparents and cousins. Things may change now that my sister and BIL is moving to DC area on job relocation, so now cousins can spend more times together. But, I, myself, miss spending time with my parents. I believe it goes same with my husband. Tough being away from the family whether we could count on their babysitting gig. Holidays is the tough ones. [/quote]
