This year we have been invited to share the stories of those things we find to be most precious to us, and for this month I haven't chosen something which I have had for years ...instead it's something that's fairly new in my life, but which has become a very big part of it:

.....my IPAD....and NOT just because I need it to play 'Candy Crush Saga'!
I use it for blog-reading, emails, reminders, lists, downloading music...but one of the most important things I use it for is keeping in touch with my girl.....I love that I can Facetime her and actually see her (you can tell a lot by my daughter's facial expressions- I wonder who she takes that from?!) and it works far better than Skype ever did for me.
Short and sweet this month, but if you want to read more stories why not pop over HERE to see what other people have chosen as their 'precious' this month.
Have a lovely weekend, whatever you're doing!
Thanks for dropping by!
take care of you

Now that I finally have an iPhone, I should probably learn about facetime...
ReplyDeleteOh I'm with you on the love of my iPad
ReplyDeleteI'm not that technologically savvy - but when my daughter heads to college next year I might be doing Facetime on an Ipad too. I can see why yours has become precious indeed.
ReplyDeleteOh super cool! I agree! Love my ipaddy!
ReplyDeleteI can totally understand why it has become so precious to you x
ReplyDeleteI am not up with modern technology!! Think I am going to get left behind
ReplyDeleteI just got one!! So far I love it 😃 face time is one of the best inventions ever!!
ReplyDeleteA couple of months ago I wouldn't have known enough about ipads to be able to agree..but the family here clubbed together to buy the Fairs one as a Wedding Anniversary present this year and we love ours now too. It's so handy and fast to use. ..and that's coming from someone who struggles with lots of technology! A good choice, Alison. Thank you
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for a precious item - we use so much technology now & it's amazing what all we can do with it!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, FaceTime, Skype and texting are wonderful
ReplyDeleteYes I am with you on this one. Skyping is a lifeline in our family and you are so right about being able to tell how your child is so much better by just seeing them. I was concerned by how tired Gracia looked on Sunday but by Monday was back to her old self. Perhaps there had been some Saturday revelry that she wasn't owning up to!
ReplyDeleteI can understand that totally. I've yet to skype or facetime anyone but I prefer to see people's faces when I talk to them so it would definitely work for me.
ReplyDeletefacetime on an ipad is a super way to chat. I often speak to my sister on it x

ReplyDeleteI just love mine - it brings the whole world to me! And having just been face timing this evening with my own DS a thousand kilometres away, I understand how precious yours is to you ... Great choice :).
ReplyDeleteAnd I just love mine...
ReplyDeleteI love mine. We haven't tried Facetime yet as we've been using Skype to talk to Janice (John's sister). We'll have to try it next time as that's all we'll have on the trip.
