My daughter-in-law has a new 4 week old baby and a 6 year old not yet in school. Fortunately they live within a few miles from me and I work a 5-11 pm shift. I began to sense that she was feeling depressed that she wasn't able to get time to do necessary things . A little afraid of hurting her feelings I decided to take the bull by the horns and offered 2-3 hours of my day to come out and spend time with the kids so she could do something she needed to do, whether it be showering, running an errand or just getting some extra naptime.

I love it when my mom and mother-in-law offer to take the kids for a few hours!!! I have learned that with a 5yr old, a 4yr old, a 2yr old and one on the way that mommy sometimes needs a break!!!!!
What a great lady you are! ( Do you want to adopt another daughter?I have 2 kids! LOL)
You seem like a dream come true! What a wonderful mother-in-law you are!
ENJOY them...they grow up SOOOOO FAST!
What a saint!!! I live 12 hours from my mom and there are days when I would dearly love a long, hot bath! I am so thankful for my son, but there are times when I just need a break!
