I am gutted. My grandchildren live 3 hours away. I haven't been able to see them that often due to a not great relationship with my DIL It's been 12 years now up and down. I have though been able to have them once they were a little older (they are now. 12 and 9) for a few days in the summer holidays. My son left it to the last week of term to tell me that they were too busy this year....all 6 weeks ...and I wouldn't have them. I was devastated they always tell me on the phone how much they enjoy coming to see us. When I asked my son why they couldn't fit me in even if I picked them up and dropped them off he told me not to question their decisions! Very very sad, I may not now see them until a week or so before Christmas for a day or so. I have now planned other things in and have lots of interests but my heart is with the children. It helps to just share that . Thanks
