[quote=Anonymous]OK.  Here's my take.

Your Mom offered to watch the kid, so it's on her to speak up if she needs help.  I have a huge B for a SIL, so I'm typically judgmental when it comes to SIL's.  But I need to point a few things out.

Where is your brother?  
Are you a bit jealous of SIL's giant nap?
She does need one... but see how she behaves when she awakens AND from here on out.  Is she appreciative of the help?  Is she showing her appreciation by contributing or doing something nice for your Mom?
She should have used a car service coming from the airport.

And also, you never claimed this child as "your nephew" and didn't seem to acknowledge that this child is your mother's grandchild.  You referred to the child as "SIL's."  Maybe you need to step back and check yourself.  I think you may have some underlying jealousy towards SIL.

But aside from that, she needs to do show her appreciation somehow, some way.  Maybe some flowers for your mom or making dinner one night?  Something kind is in order, for sure.
