We've just spent a lovely weekend with all four grandparents looking after 18 month old GD while my DD and SIL have a weekend away. Perfect in all but one thing, I am left feeling very envious of the close relationship the other grandparents have with my DGD. To put it into context, the others GPs are European living abroad yet get regular quality contact as SIL chooses to visit very frequently for at least 1 week at a time. Our visits are less frequent and only brief. Everyone gets on very well, my relationship with DD is very close but she seems to have to spend most of her free time in Europe. DGD was very clingy to the other GP and left me wondering how I can develop that sort of bond as we love her dearly. It isn't jealousy exactly,perhaps envy that they have had chance to become so close despite living abroad. How can I develop a close bond with my DGD in these early years of her life?
