Homesick Girl by lauriehiggins

Homesick Girl

Sorry I've been kind of absent from commenting lately. This little girl is taking up all my 365 time each evening. We bought our granddaughter an iPod with some bells and whistles for Christmas, and she has finally figured out how to Skype on her own on that tiny device. She has been really homesick for family lately, and has Skyped with me every night lately for a few hours.

The time difference between the East Coast to the West Coast has been brutal to my normal schedule. As I Skype kiss her goodnight at 9 p.m. her time, it is midnight where I am. I miss her so much right back...
Beautiful !!:)

Her freckles are divine if you can call them that! Lovely pensive look from your granddaughter and it is so good of you to take the time to be with her on Skype!

Love those freckles!

You've so effectively captured her emotion . . . this is a photo you (and others) will treasure, no doubt. I hope you can cross the miles and see each other soon!

Mwaw, I feel for her and for you. How clever is she though, to figure that out. This is a really stunning shot. +Fav

Aw, so sad she is missing you so much, and vice versa. Beautiful photo. She has a pensive, wistful look that says exactly what you describe. Hope she'll be able to visit you again soon.

This is a lovely photo of the beautiful Skylar. My granddaughter lives in England, it's really hard isn't it.

Oh so sad! She is such a beautiful girl. I hope we'll get her back some day. We all miss her. Tell her mom I said so.

I just love her freckles. You're almost reminding me of what I should be doing with Pepper!

Oh, poor baby! she is so cute. Stinks to be homesick.

That is a very sweet candid of your girl. How nice that she wants to talk to you every day--- well worth the late hours. As always, I love the freckles.

This is beautiful ... how you feel about her comes through in your images. I remember them from the summer - she looks to be a special young lady.
