[quote=Anonymous]It's so nice to know I'm not the only one dealing with the expectations and guilt(!) associated with having nearby grandparents. Also agree with PP regarding Mother's Day. I seriously wish my husband and kids would surprise me with a Mother's Day weekend away so I wouldn't have to deal with the expectations from our own mothers. When our first was born a week or so prior to Mother's Day, we ended up doing the circuit of his mom and my mom with newborn in tow. I didn't get to eat, because we missed the meal timing at each venue. What a show, never again. Seems there are definitely advantages to having them at arms-length long distance, although then I imagine you have to deal with traveling with little ones and more extended hosting. Those with helpful grandparents -- you are so lucky![/quote]
