Last week my mom mentioned she wanted to do a tutorial with Harris over FaceTime. YES. PLEASE. Anything to take up some time during the afternoon. We had so much fun that we have now done many video chat tutorials with family and friends. The tutor gives me a heads up with what they want to teach him so I can prepare the materials. Then we set a time, usually during Greer's nap. It has been SO FUN and a great way to stay connected with our loved ones during this time of isolation.
