Re: siblings living far apart

@X2

what do you do to stay engaged in each others’ lives, assuming you dont get to see each other more than once or twice a year. how do you get your kids to know their uncle/aunt, and their cousins.

share best practices. Thankoo

Excellent question.

1. Of course birthday/special events calls.
2. Kids write letters/cards to each other.
3. Skype every few days/weeks.
4. With family in the US, we do meet each other for a family reunion at least once a year.
5. Have to work on overseas siblings.

Other than that, I guess we stay in touch and follow up on issues we may have discussed. My sister and I are very close and have always given each other space but we’re on top of all developments. It’s just the 2 of us so it’s easier. Hubby’s family is all in the US so we get to meet more often and catch up.
