Sorry, no suggestions SJP but I do understand how you feel. Having not seen our eldest GC since he was 8 months old (he'll be 5 in January) and never having seen his brother who was 1 last month, I emailed our son in August and asked if we could see them; the silence was deafeningsad.

Actually I do have a suggestion, pick up the 'phone and ask her; what do you have to lose. Good luckflowers.

Wise grannies, I have written to my sons ex partner to ask if the children would like to meet up with me or phone / Skype me during Christmas holiday. . Predictably I have not had a response. I asked my son to discuss with her and got a lukewarm response about not knowing her availability over Christmas. So my dilemma - do I let this go or just pick up the phone. I will wait until the main days are over incase Mum gets stressy to prevent spoiling Christmas and thought new year a better time as one of my grandchildren has a birthday early Jan as well. I have sent presents and written a personal letter to them but of course no idea if the children will get it. Any suggestions
