This blog was formerly dedicated in 2009 to my Dad who died of Alzheimer's in 2013. It's been three years now...and I find myself missing blogging...so I am re-inventing my blog... because, after all, life is about moving through, and going forward...

Whooooo-hooooo!!!

I tried calling Dad today and was unable to make contact with him.  The nurse told me he was doing well.  I will try again tomorrow...

Today was my first attempt to do Face Time with my youngest daughter, her boyfriend and with baby Jacob, on her boyfriend's iPhone 4 and my mac book.  Success!  It was so fun seeing her new hair do and that sweet baby boy playing with Scout, the learning stuffed dog toy we gave him for Christmas!  Oh the wonders of technology!

When we talk on our cell phones, Jacob always wants to talk to me and ends up hanging up.  This time, when he could see my face, he kept blowing me kisses and each time he did, made a popping sound with his mouth.  I could not stop laughing!

Hi my friend. Hope you get to catch up with your dad soon. How wonderful that you got to speak to your daughter face to face, and especially for you to actually see little Jacob playing with the toy that you bought him for Christmas. Hopefully you will be able to do that quite often, as I can imagine how much you must miss them.

Isn't Face Time awesome? I use it on my iPad to talk to my brother and parents all the time.

I'm assuming "Face Time" is similar to "Skype". We "Skype" with our granddaughter Lily weekly and we sure enjoy it! She'll ask her mom if she can talk to "Gwama and Papa" on the "puter"?
