[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So I’d expect excitement, yes. But also- did you ask if it was okay to come stay with them over the holidays? I would be a little surprised if a family member with young kids (I’m thinking my brother- married with little kids, about 5-6hr drive, hasn’t ever stayed in our home for Christmas since his kids were first born 5 years ago) called to be like “I’ll be there on the 24th does that work?” I don’t know how I’d feel. A little conflicted even if I ended up being excited to see them in the end. I don’t like being volun-told to host a full family for multiple days. [/quote] They want you to come but it will be more work for them, don't you see that?[/quote] I’m the PP and yes that explains it nicely. I love my brother , love seeing him and his kids, but if he just told me he was coming to stay for a few days I’d be excited but also a little stressed. I like to do the inviting to my own house, you know?[/quote]
