[quote=Anonymous]This is how my mom is. She is excited to see us, but doesn't really text and only wants to talk on the phone for 5-10 mins at a time before getting off to watch TV with her cat. I think some old people just get really tired and can't muster as much energy. Go do the visits and remember you can't control their reactions, but they are probably happy in their own way and your kids are hopefully making good memories. If they are cranky when you go, you can always shorten visits or just see one side at a time each year.[/quote]
