My cousin Robert and his wife Jayme are having their first
child this spring. My mom hosts a great baby shower (I mean top notch). The
problem: Robert and Jayme live in Austin, Texas.
So what do we do? We get together at our house and with the
help of Rob’s sister, Lauren, and her husband, Billy … we Skype the
parents-to-be. They were so surprised, it was really sweet.
The biggest hit when it came time to open gifts? Mine. Jet’s
gear so small it could fit a Pomeranian.
(Well, at least I think it was the best.)
The only hitch in our virtual baby shower was that we couldn’t
hear the others on Skype. So they wrote notes, and likely laughed at us off
screen.
All in all it was a weird way to celebrate a new addition to
our crazy family. But, hey, at least we got to do it, right?
