I realised the other day I haven't spoken with my MIL since christmas 2010. My friend thinks this is slack. My DH, her son, speaks to her every four or five months and keeps her up-to-date with the news.
I sent her an easter card a month ago with photos of her grandson.
I don't know where the time goes - I am so busy with my son, my part-time work and taking care of DH.
We live in different states and often it's difficult to judge the best time to call
Or, am I pretty slack?
My friend thinks so.
I am due to have another baby in July and might phone her then.
