Dizzying FaceTime Call from an Ice Princess

My heart explodes every time my grandkids call me.
There used to be a time when I couldn’t understand a word they said, but those days are long gone.
Now, I get dizzy! They are in constant motion on FaceTime.
I watched them run from the kitchen to the basement to show me the feeding of Yogi, the bearded dragon. Then a rush up two flights of stairs to my grandson’s bedroom where I saw my grandson’s pile of books, new comforter, and listened to a poem he had written.
After that, I was visually escorted into my granddaughter’s bathroom to watch her wash her hands. Immediately afterwards, while hearing about her weekend, school work, ice skating friends, and practices, I had the pleasure of watching her put her clean laundry away including her underwear, some of which she dropped on the floor in her haste.
Back down the stairs we went, with a stop on the landing to see how much snow had melted outside a window, and into the living room which had a coffee table with a hollow base into which she disappeared while I waited.
Finally, we ran through the halls into the kitchen to see when dinner would be ready and a quick hello to my daughter-in-law and ended in the family room, where I said hello to my son and a goodbye to all!
Time for my dinner while I unwind!

They can wear you out without you even being there! I bet their parents are happy to have you occupy them for awhile!

@DianneN Thank God they have sports to keep them focused and more importantly using up all that energy!

It sounds like you had a virtual house tour with your grandkids as the tour guides.

@DianneN — next time, take a motion sickness pill before the call.
