The face to face time won't be as often as you're used to, but you can also make sure that every time you do see her that it is really a special time for both of you.
I agree


There are some of us that no longer have mothers that we can talk to or visit with no matter how long or short the distance.

Wait! She's going to Nashville?! You lucky DOG! Your weekend trips are going to be so fun! Think about BBQ, and the weather is nice. In fact it's a great place to live. You and Jerry are going to have so much fun visiting her.

Also the drive down is going to be really nice. You can see some great roadside attractions!

What country guy sings that song, "I ain't as good as I once was, but I'm as good once, as I ever was"?

Oh yeah! It's a ton of fun! I also LOVE roadside attractions. I'm a huge sucker for "The World's Largest Ball of Twine" and "Our Water tower Looks Like a Peach". I'll stop at anything if it has the hint of being fun.

Just saw this - you do have a way with thread titles, don't you! Now that I'm breathing again, I just want to say how sorry I am, Susie. I know that you'll miss her, but she will just be a phone call away. The web cam sounds like a wonderful idea, and Nashville - OMG! You can have some great visits!
