Last night we did what any techologically advanced family would do. We did our bedtime ritual together. Reading books, asking what everyone was thankful for, sharing prayers, singing songs, and giving hugs & kisses. All of that with our 90 pound labrador retriever attempting to lay in someone's lap.
What was different about last night was that one of us was 6,000 miles away in Motegi, Japan and the rest us were in the States. The power of technology is incredible! With our web camera on and the laptop propped on a chair...we remained connected as a family for our night time tradition with Daddy on the other side of the dateline.
It was awesome watching our daughter tickle the laptop screen trying to 'touch' her daddy... we waved, blew kisses, and shared our prayers for one another.
The touch of technology is a treasure to savor...
