I think most families are like yours. I know I'm lucky. There are five children, as well as my parents. We all live within 15 minutes of each other, with the exception of my oldest sister who bought my parents vacation home four hours away.

My husband and I actually bought a house two yards away from my childhood home, and my parents still live in it. It's cool, cause my dad will just wander over in the evenings, and sit for hours talking and drinking coffee.

I'd say that there is some family member at my house at least three nights a week, if not more.

Wow. That might be ust a little too close for me, but again, you are lucky.
