[quote=Anonymous]Just go. that is not very far. I drive that regularly to go see my family with just my 3 and 7 year old. DH comes probably one time in three. Just say "I'd like to take the kids to visit my parents in September. we'd love to have you but totally fine if you want to stay here, I'm good to go with the kids. would the weekend of the (dates) work or do we have anything scheduled?" Don't make a big deal out of it or feel like frequent visits is something you have to commit to ahead of time. My visits have varied in frequency over the years depending on what is going on in life. Also, maybe one of these summers you can start transitioning your kids to a week with your family, if your parents want that. My mom has been clamoring for it since they were toddlers, and I might send one early next year a week earlier than us.[/quote]
