My mum (aged 50) is a fabulous Mum and Grandma. Me and Dh both work full time. DS(17m) goes to nursery 2 days a week and is with my Mum 3 days a week. I often feel guilty and wonder if we rely too much on my Mum. She says she loves having our son when I have asked her if it's too much and that although she does get tired, it's not a problem. I (aged 29) am often shattered after a day at home on my own with my son, let alone being with his Mon, Tues and Fri like my Mum does.
I feel forever guilty but she insists it's not too much. AIBU to always feel like we rely too much on my Mum? That we are forever indebted to her, although she never makes me feel this way herself?
I would love to do something for her to show how grateful we are.
