[quote=Anonymous]i get it - travel with kids is hard. Ask for help if you need it - don't just expect people to offer. "Joan, I'm sorry for all the chaos we cause but the kids are out of sorts. Could I ask you to just mind Billy for a few minutes while I jump in the shower?" What do you do at home that you can't do there to make these things happen? Just say, "At home I do it while he naps/watches a movie/stays in the playroom, but we can't do that as easily here." As for getting out to do extras, well you'll just have to balance with DH on that one. Can't he watch them while you walk? If it really doesn't work then just acept that you'll have to stay home at the holidays. [/quote]
