Family is invaluable, but you can never be sure what’s happening in your family members’ heads.
While disagreements and rough patches are inevitable, their unwavering support gives us a sense of security and love.
As soon as my husband leaves, I start getting calls from his parents. Every day. Apparently, they think that I’ll get bored and go on a bender if they don’t.
And they can’t even think of what to say to me, which is annoying.
Now, as soon as I see their numbers on the screen, I let my daughter answer.
And the grandmother is captured by a chatty 5-year-old, while Mum can work. Now the calls have become much less frequent. Why, why?

There’s always some of it left, so I can nibble on it while the pie is in the oven.
I always thought they were just unable to measure food properly.
But yesterday I overheard my wife telling our daughter, “Make more filling. Daddy likes it very much.
He always waits for it with a spoon.” © adedas / Pikabu

Christmas? Yeah, we all have to get as close as humanly possible to spending the exact amount on each other.
If I spend $12 on my father-in-law, and we were only supposed to spend $10, rest assured I’ll be getting $2 in the mail shortly.
We have them over for dinner, and we get a pizza, they will figure out how much their slices cost.
So if the pie came to $12.50 and there were 8 slices, and they have 4 total, yep we’re getting $6.24 from them.
Doesn’t matter how much we insist on not taking money. It’s comical at this point, but still so weird. © JV316 / Reddit
Yeah, we’re taking them to watch our kids.
