That's the hardest part of visits for me - I miss the grandkids more after I've visited them!<BR/><BR/>My favorite part about vacations is leaving behind all my adult responsibilities and just living in the moment. I could do it at home too if I would figure out how, but so far I can't! I got some pictures of your visit developed - I'll try to get them emailed to you when you get home!<BR/><BR/> <BR/>Love you,<BR/>Hope you have a fun 24th!<BR/>Grandma SweatAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28467399.post-1153350897743349232006-07-19T19:14:00.000-04:002006-07-19T19:14:00.000-04:00We never go on vacation. In fact, we haven't been ...We never go on vacation. In fact, we haven't been on any trip that required more than a 2 hour drive with Clayton since he was born! We are not adventuresome with small children, especially those with his temperament. I still don't want to get on a plane with him. But that's o.k. because our family lives here, except for one sister who lives in SLC (but she visits so often that we almost don't have a chance to visit her). Oh, and two sibs that live in Provo during school yr.<BR/><BR/>HOWEVER, I can completely relate about the challenge of disciplining, etc when we are at the parents'. It is so much harder for me to keep the boys in their routine at my parents' house and to maintain rules b/c we're out of our environment and my mom has a different style. EG If we want him to eat healthy, it's very difficult there. It's also hard to be disciplining in front of my four siblings who don't have kids yet. I feel like all eyes and judgments are on me. We love to visit there a lot though (10 minute drive). So it's finding a balance all the time of keeping our rules but not making it miserable for everyone.Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06141809612132976253noreply@blogger.com
