I second what Onlyme said earlier. since my mum in law died my hubbys side of the family dont see each other very often and the family gatherings are few and far between.
I dont really have a close family either so i do make a big pont with my own children to get them all together as often as possible. Its not always easy because they are all grown now and have thier own lives to live but I will insist several times a year they all get togather, I just hope they do it when im no longer around .

I also make a big point of the hugs thing even with my boys, and they really dont mind either, infact even at their ages now they all quite often and openly come to me and give me a big hug and kiss. I think its quite important and hope they can pass it on to their kids.
