Reason #27,838 That Living Near Family Is Great

When you are a sick, dizzy, feverish mess, your parents will keep your kids overnight so that you can go to bed at 6:30 p.m. and sleep until 7:30 a.m.

CURED.

I wish Blogger had a Facebook-esque "Like" button; I would click it in response to your post. Glad you're feeling better.

I so hear you.. Have my sis and MOM nearby and able to help in a pinch. Try not to but when I need them they are there :) As I am for them.

What you say is true.

However, I can one-up that. My mother-in-law flew across the country (She has a job.) to help me cope with my daughter's diaper rash. It was really truly awful. The doctor cried when he saw her poor little behind.

I have the most wonderful in-laws of all time. My own parents, though ...

Oh yes. I hear you!! About 18 months ago, my husband AND I came down with some kind of horrific flu like thing - AT THE SAME TIME!! My folks lived a 45 minute drive away and they drove to us, medicated us and picked up our 1 year old and 4 year old and took them home for the night. Hubby and I climbed into bed and did not move till the next morning.

PARENTS TOTALLY ROCK!!!!
