[QUOTE="Mayapple5, post: 211081, member: 6223"] For six years my only son and his wife and one child moved to Texas to be with her family. They were there for six years. I visited three times, every 18 months. Two of those times were when my two granddaughters were born. We stayed one week in a three bedroom mobile home with them, a bit crowded but we loved it. The last time we stayed we had all the sight seeing done and we just stayed "home" the whole week, even that was fun,just spending time together. We called each other every Thursday night and emailed almost every day! Now? They live an hour away and I see them about every two months. Ours and their busy lives get in the way of our visiting very often. I still call and we still email, not as often but, I miss them just as much. (The other grandma? Still in Texas) They say you get used to it, I didn't. I didn't know they were going to move back, ever, but when they made that decision you'd better believe I was leaping for joy! I'm thankful, traveling with daughter difficult child 2 was not a lot of fun! 2 1/2 hours on the plane was frightening to her, until we gave her something to calm her and let her sleep. Let him spread his wings, you never know what life has planned for him and who he will meet out there ...?:winking: [/QUOTE]
