Real Time

Ok, it's not like really being there, but living 1700 miles away, it's the next best thing.  With my two grandchildren turning 3 and 6 within a week of each other it was fun today to be a part of their mutual party and watch them open their gifts and wish them a Happy Birthday.  Thankgoodness for Skype and the abilty to connect in real time and experience their special moments instead of only hearing about them later.  It's a wonderful age we live in and I, especially, appreciate this great tool to make me feel like I am in the moment.

  1. It's so great, isn't it?? But your pix of us is WAY more clear than the pix I get of you. I'll have to look into that. Fun to have you at the party! ;) XOXO

  2. I'm so glad you can get in on the action of those birthday parties! I'll post a cool picture of Katri and the kids talking to you on Skype. They are so excited to see you. They act like it's just a normal everyday thing to talk to your grandma hundreds of miles away on a computer. Me? I feel like I'm on the Jetsons.
