Why I love 'Blogging!'

Blogging

I find that term interesting. Why is it called 'Blogging???'

I love it! A month ago in Relief Society, the first Sunday-when it's the presidency message, we were talking about how to keep in touch. I raised my hand and told them about how my daughters and I have 'blog' pages and how my oldest daughter walked me through the steps to get started over the phone. There were a few 'ahhs' and a few 'what's that?' They know, having been their former RS Pres. a few years back, that I am pro computer and all about the internet!I had made the VT routes all via internet with the exception of a very few who did not have a computer or internet. One 'click' and your route has been reported! They are on their 3rd RS Pres since my departure and they are still using the internet VT reporting! That's progress!

Now that I have digressed a bit, I do love the internet for keeping in touch! It's so great. I love clicking on the blogs and catching up. I click on my grand kids' pictures and via a 'click' transport them to their family My Picture files! :o) I love going to Drop Shots and seeing the pictures and videos they post. I love their scrapbooking pages as well! Being a long distance grandmother is not fun I can tell you. Keeping them a 'click' away and seeing them and their families makes my heart swell! I am always amazed how fast they are growing up and how tall they are getting. Not too far and they'll start being teenagers, wonderful young people! :o)

Our kids gave dad and I a 'Digital Picture Frame' for a Mothers/Fathers Day gift. We love it! Soon I am going to have to add more pictures to it as I've been collecting more photos.

I'm not much into My Space or Face book. To me, blog does the same thing. I'm a grandma, and sometimes I learn slow and have to have my daughters grin and bear a few repetitious steps on computer things, but God bless them! I love 'learning!' It keeps your mind from getting mushy!

Thanks to my wonderful children who help me keep learning!

Love,
Mom :o)
