contact with grandchildren

Only via face time etc looking forward to the cuddles I agree harrigran it annoys me too .

I haven't seen mine since February half term holiday and can't justify driving past their house as it is forty five minutes away.
I have seen them on WhatsApp but last week teenage GD thought she was too busy to even wave to us.
It hurts a little when I see neighbours disregarding the rules and visiting the GPs. This afternoon I saw my immediate neighbour's GD drive up and walk straight into the house, she is an adult and should have known better.

The two we pick up from school a couple of times a week usually are around the corner so wave to them on our daily cycle ride, the toddler we look after once a week we cycle by also a couple of times a week, but the 5 overseas is facetime at the weekend as usual.

I haven't seen any of my grandchildren since lockdown. Missing them very much especially the baby as he is changing so much as they do in first year.

I see my 7 year old grandson every night on skype. I have read him stories, but I wonder if anyone can suggest games to play with him?

My GC live on the same road as me, just a few houses away and so I see them as they are out walking or cycling each day. I can talk to them whilst I stand on my doorstep and they're about 15 feet away on the pavement. I'm extremely lucky, I know that, but I do miss just being able to hug and hold them, like everyone else do too.

Only via Facebook or WhatsApp.

Strangely, I am seeing far more of the older two now (7 & nearly 9) than I was before all this started, because they must be getting bored at home so have started contacting me on Facebook to play games.
