This sweet little lady just changed my life: she made me a grandma! A long-distance grandma, to be specific. It has gotten me thinking about how best to be a part of her life from halfway across the country. I’ve known other grandparents in the same position – it’s a lot easier now than it was even fifty years ago, what with FaceTime and Skype. I hope to find other creative ways to get to know her as she grows. So many possibilities! If you’ve been in this situation and have some ideas, do let me know. I think one of the most important things I can do, however, is to be praying for her. It doesn’t matter how far away we live – God always has His eye on her and inclines His ear to me. That’s a connection that cannot be broken.
I probably won’t delete this in the morning.

Good luck with the long distance thing. I can only imagine how badly you want to hold her.

Congratulations! What a blessing! The only reason I have an iPhone is to facetime with our grandson in Florida. Not only have I been able to watch him grow, I am blessed with time with my daughter almost every single day. Even though we are miles about, my grandson knows who I am so that when we are together it just feels like any other day of being part of his life.

I’m so glad and reassured to hear that, Sue. I wish we were closer geographically, but it’s such a blessing that technology provides ways to lessen the distance.
