Attention all Grandmas: You gotta get a web cam!!!

Just had our first web cam experience with Chris, Maria, and Makenna. Amazing! We can talk to each other and the full-screen picture is pretty clear. Makenna actually listened to my voice in the first few seconds....maybe thinking "I've heard that voice somewhere before..." So for about $25 you can get one of these cameras on top of your computer and talk to your grandkids (and your kids and their spouses) anytime you want. I'd heard of these web cams before, usually in negative stories about their misuse, and now I know they are made for a good purpose. Mario is gone playing basketball--hope he gets back soon so he can see this when they call us back. They are now on the web cam with Carrie's family. We talked about how on Thursday nights when Carrie's family come over here for supper, we can eat together, well almost....well anyway, the picture was clear and the conversation was clear, and this was just a great thing for me tonight.
