[quote=Anonymous]If you can handle it (or your sister), invite them for extended stays with you (or your sister) in the winter when the weather is much better where you are. Get them a little bit integrated into the kids' daily lives (taking Larla to soccer practice) while they're staying with you, so it feels less like a special occasion and more a preview of regular every day life if they were to live closer. It's a beast to host parents for longer durations though, but we do save some money on childcare/camps when they visit. We do it over summer and winter break. Grandparents come stay for 2-3 weeks and are in the thick of kid logistics and such. It got them to envision what life might be like.[/quote]
