I'm in a predicament and could use some advice. I am very close with my son and his daughter (23 mos). My son lives close by and I used to see my granddaughter almost daily until her parents separated. I now see her 1-2 days a week when he has her. Regardless of time spent together/lack thereof, she always clings to me and won't go to anyone else if I'm around. My daughter, whom I'm not quite as close with, has a son (18 mos) but I just recently had a couple of months to get to know him and then they moved 8 hours away. My daughter just asked me if I would come to stay with them for 2 months to take care of my grandson while she works to help them get on their feet. While I want to go to help her and spend more time with my grandson, I feel horrible about leaving my granddaughter, as I know how attached she is to me. I would feel like I've abandoned her (2 months will feel like 2 years). I know that a 2-year-old doesn't have the ability to comprehend time, etc. I realize Skype is available, but I'm really having a hard time with this since I know she's my "biggest fan." Am I worrying too much about how this will affect her? Will 2 months feel like 2 years to her as well? Please tell me "no."
