I had a #videochat tonight with #GS3, #GS4, and #GS5. The older two have birthdays coming up. The almost 4 year old told me about earthquakes and a storm that gave him a headache … which seemed pretty dramatic, so he may have embellished a bit. The almost 2 year old had a whole conversation of one word responses. His vocabulary is expanding. He also brought me his newest toy (some sort of stuffed animal with electronics that flash lights, make noises, and move … reminded me of Gremlins from the 1980s movie)

The TV was on, so the almost 4 year old was distracted (the almost 2 year old also, but much less), but they talked until (and partway through) dinnertime.
