In anticipation of being away from Logan for the next 2.5 months, we decided webcams would help Elise and I stay in touch, and hopefully help her remember her daddy better than just talking on the phone. Talking on the phone for a 20 month old consists of lots of listening, blowing kisses, waving, and big smiles. Not much verbal communication. We thought if she could see Daddy, then she'd be more able to communicate using her signs and big smile. We finally got the other webcam set up, and did a test run this afternoon. It works great!!! She was so excited to see Daddy on the computer, and was happy to sing songs and blow kisses with him. I think this is gonna be a great way for our family to stay in touch, and help her remain strongly bonded to him. Hopefully this means she won't freak out when he comes down to Oregon for Christmas!
This is also an opportunity for us to stay in touch with far away loved ones. If you have webcam capabilities, we are using Skype and are willing to send our user name if you want...or send us yours and we'll find you! We won't be chatting a lot this next week or so....we'll be flying on Monday, resting Tuesday, and then driving. But let us know how to find you, and we'll chat when we get to a resting place! How exciting new technology is!!!!
