I am so sorry that you d not see your grandchildren as often as you would like. I think we have to realise that Daughters are always closer to their own Mum. I know that I am very very lucky as I have three lovely DIL. We lost one of our sons 7 years ago aged 42, when his children were aged 7 and 5, they live about 1 1/2 hours drive away, but we see them and DIL just as much as we did before. Sometimes I go to them, and sometimes they come to me. I think you have heard the saying that goes." A son is a son until he marries, a dauhter is a daughter for ever"
