Although my son, Rick, and daughter-in-law, Jen live in Chicago and I live in Wisconsin, modern technology makes it possible to view my new granddaughter often on my computer. When Rick contacts me on his computer, via www.skype.com, we can chat while at the same time I can watch six-week-old Lily. It’s as if my computer is a television screen and I can see everything. I feel like I am right in the room with them. I love it.
Usually when we end the call, Rick closes skype.com and I return to my work on the computer. But recently, he forgot to close the skype window and I could continue to watch Lily and listen to Rick and Jen’s conversation. They didn’t realize I could hear them and I didn’t say anything. I felt guilty “eaves-dropping” on them for another 20 minutes or so, but couldn’t resist.
Later I told a friend and she warned me, “You might not want to do that again, as who knows, you might hear something you would rather not hear.” She’s absolutely right and I hope I can resist any future temptation.
