[quote=Anonymous]A couple times a year. We chose to move out of DC to where I grew up to be near my mom and siblings. (We always knew DH’s parents and siblings would be minimally involved and just appreciate a once a year get together with them.) We sacrificed a lot to move but decided that it was something we’d do before we even had kids because we knew having family support would make life infinitely easier. If family isn’t an option then you have to build it locally. Close friends or find a regular, reliable sitter who you can build a long-term relationship with and use for annual getaways. Even just a long weekend is better than nothing. [/quote]
