Almost every Thursday night, this is where you can find us. Skyping with Grandparents. We each take turns and we each have our regular skyping agenda.
Seth quickly runs through information about school, which usually involves discussing what he's had for lunch and what he did in gym class. And then Grandpa and Seth discuss sports.
Colin always requests to play the "animal guessing game". They usually play several rounds. It's 20 questions with animals. It can get quite involved. Then Colin wants Grandpa to read him a book. It works out well because while Grandpa reads to Colin, mommy and Grandma head off to get some evening chores done in our respective houses. While Grandpa read Mike Mulligan and his Steam Shovel, I unloaded the dish washer and Grandma did some laundry.
We've done show-and-tell this way. Grandma and Grandpa got to see all the boys school supplies. Only grandparents would ooohh and aaahhh over glue sticks and No.2 pencils. We've shown them new projects around this house.
It's not the same as living close by (we miss them a lot) but we're grateful to live in a time where this kind of communication is possible.
