Skype Tuesdays

I have always heard of Skype and thought it was a cool idea, but never thought about getting until I heard Kinsey say "Mom, get Skype and we can talk and see each other".  Well, I immediately downloaded it and love when I get the text message from Kinsey saying, "I'll skype you tonight."

Hence, the beginnning of Tuesday night Skype night.  I look forward to it as well as Keefe and Schyler.

It all begins with me getting home from the studio, placing the laptop on the dining room table and starting dinner.  Then all of the sudden I hear her calling.  Keefe and Schyler laugh as I run to the laptop and pick up the "phone".  From there Kinsey watches me make dinner and the goings on of the house while we talk and catch up.  She "sits" with us at the dinner table and tells us what is going on at school and we tell her what's happening here and what we are all up to.  It's alot of fun and it's a cool way to stay in touch.

I love seeing her and what her and her roommate have done with their room.   I love the comings and goings of all her new friends at school while we are chatting.  They all look so comfortable and at ease in their new environment.  It's neat meeting them and saying hello as they fly in the room and fly out as fast as they came in.  I'm still amazed that I have a child in college and that she has adapted so well from what I can see.  She is exactly where she belongs.  It is a great fit.

Well, today is Sunday.  I am sitting here with my coffee after a long crazy wedding last night and I am counting the days until our now weekly Skype Tuesday chat.
