[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Great ideas. They dont have pea pod in their area but I might call around a try and find some sort of food delivery option. I could have one load dropped off at my moms and another one at her house.  Cleaning service is another good idea. My mom has one but not sure is SIL does.  Keep the ideas coming.  As for going on a vacation I think that sounds ideal and will try and get with other sibs and make that work.  She doesn't have children, which is another reason I feel bad.  I feel like she kinda felt she had to do it since the rest of us are raising our kids. I dont want it to seem like her free time is less valuable because she is child free. [/quote]

Above everything else, I'd be sure to tell her what you're telling us so she knows you appreciate her sacrifices and don't take her efforts for granted.  And, then I'd repeat that regularly.  In addition to a vacation, grocery delivery, etc., maybe send her notes and cards just to let her know you're thinking of her and lending support, even from afar.  :)[/quote]
