Technology has come so far in my life time it is just amazing! Last weekend Andrew was playing on my touch pad and it began ringing. He looked and me and instantly handed it over to me so I could answer the incoming Skype call from my mom.He laid his head on my shoulder and I tried to line it up so that “OG” (Great-Grandma Louise) could see him as he repeated her name “OG,OG,OG”. Living so far away it is hard for the Great Grandparent to be involved in his life and it is kind of sad. But as I watched OG and Andrew play Pick-a-boo and blow kisses to each other I was so thankful for the advance technology that allows us to all be close even when we are hundreds of miles away from each other!
It is funny that the toy company’s are still making this type of toy…it is an antique phone. I am not sure that Andrew has ever seen this type of phone since we all have cell phones and no longer have land lines in our home. I am sure he would never think of putting the receiver to his ear.
Cameras have improved so much too! When I was born very few people could afford a good one and the picture quality was horrible. Now everyone that has a phone has a camera (if only I could remember this) and they pick up such good details (good and bad). Look at the beautiful eyes of my grandson, this picture has not been enhanced at all these are his true eyes!
