#1 Son & # 1 DIL gave us a camera for Christmas for our computer. Our last trip to Austin, Caroline gave me a lesson on how to use it and loaded my computer with the software. With all the "New Baby Business", I had not actually used it UNTIL last night. IT IS SO COOL! I got on line and called them up last night and they responded. We got to see # 1 & # 2 Grands and #1 Son & DIL. Had a brief chat-BUT most important got to "Eyeball" them. I have always said there is just something about putting your eyes on your children and grandchildren that is reassuring. It is wonderful to talk with them, but it is not the same as putting your eyes on them.
That brings me to this-WHY do we feel the need to clown around if we know there is a camera on us? Both boys AND their Dad were making silly faces while we were trying to have a conversation. Hopefully the "Novelty" will wear off and we can have a chat without a silly face inches away from the camera ( I do LOVE those silly boys!).
With that said, I am excited about our new toy and am on a mission to send a camera to #1 daughter. We can then have "Group Chats". HOW COOL IS THAT! Of course we will have to coordinate it all around Mr. Henry's BUSY schedule.
Can't wait to get them up and going and on line as a "Family."

How exciting! Mrs. Susan got us a camera for Christmas so Nick and I can see each other during the week (and of course J-man). I haven't set it up yet but you have inspired me to!
