Just wondering, really. Do you treat them like returning royalty, do you carry on as normal, do you send them back with lots of home baked goodies?
DD has been home and I tried to spoil her a bit but also had to get on with my own things as I had a busy week at work coming up. So, not able/willing to sit up until 2am chatting as I'm sure she would have liked. She did go back with some cash and a chocolate cake. DH was a bit miffed that she went off to see a friend but I don't think that's unreasonable.
I think she found the transition between her new exciting life and her possibly slightly boring home a bit hard to adjust to although she didn't complain, she's generally easy-going and grateful.
