Of course, now I understand perfectly. Listening to understand the other person, before we respond, is such an important part of true communication. Thankfully God never missunderstands us. We used voice-only Skype when our daughter was in Germany as an exchange student and it was helpful. I usually communicate by email only since my travels have often been to places without good internet connections.

I live in Maryland and my parents live in Indiana. My mom is a principal, so she can't make it out here often, but it makes her day when we call her on skype so she can see her granddaughter.
