Back then we had to snail mail pictures and it was so expensive, especially when sent internationally by air mail! We used to take photos with our 35mm camera, develop them, make re-prints, then send them off to my husband&#8217;s family in the Netherlands since we lived in the States. The situation reversed a bit in 2002 when, due to various circumstances, we actually had to move there.<\/p>\n<p>Before we packed up to live overseas, my sister bought us a digital camera (they were just getting popular then). Our daughter was just about to turn two years old and my sister did not want to miss seeing her grow up. What a generous and practical gift! We made full use of it as we attached numerous pictures to our outgoing emails to the family over the next four years.<\/p>\n<table width=\"600\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13956\" title=\"nl2002\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cookiesandclogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/nl2002.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"136\" height=\"181\" \/><br \/>\n<strong>2002<\/strong><\/td>\n<td align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13957\" title=\"nl2003\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cookiesandclogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/nl2003.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"136\" height=\"181\" \/><br \/>\n<strong>2003<\/strong><\/td>\n<td align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13958\" title=\"nl2004\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cookiesandclogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/nl2004.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"136\" height=\"181\" \/><br \/>\n<strong>2004<\/strong><\/td>\n<td align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13959\" title=\"nl2005\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cookiesandclogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/nl2005.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"136\" height=\"181\" \/><br \/>\n<strong>2005<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The digital photos couldn&#8217;t replace the experience of\u00a0 actually seeing her in person but it helped to hold my family over until they were able to visit us or we visited them. We filled their inboxes almost monthly with low resolution images as my daughter grew like a weed (as all kids do). They also let us know how they were doing with snapshots of special happenings in their lives.<\/p>\n<p>I can&#8217;t even count how many attachments we uploaded and downloaded during that time. Sharing precious moments via email allowed us to stay connected with family overseas despite being over 5,000 miles away.<\/p>\n<p>After moving back in the States, our photos began traveling the other direction across the ocean. Sharing online albums has become much more convenient and the Dutch half of the family can follow our adventures almost as they happen (depending on when we have time to sort through the digital collection). Even the least tech savvy of our family can easily download a full-size image and have it printed. Wow, how technology has changed.<\/p>\n<p>Since Yahoo! Mail is sponsoring this trip down memory lane, here&#8217;s a quick video showing how much easier it is to send pictures these days:<\/p>\n<div><object width=\"576\" height=\"324\" classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"flashVars\" value=\"vid=25146727&amp;shareUrl=http%3A\/\/personallyyours.mail.yahoo.com&amp;\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"wmode\" value=\"transparent\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/d.yimg.com\/nl\/ymailbeta\/leadership\/player.swf\" \/><param name=\"flashvars\" value=\"vid=25146727&amp;shareUrl=http%3A\/\/personallyyours.mail.yahoo.com&amp;\" \/><embed width=\"576\" height=\"324\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" src=\"http:\/\/d.yimg.com\/nl\/ymailbeta\/leadership\/player.swf\" flashVars=\"vid=25146727&amp;shareUrl=http%3A\/\/personallyyours.mail.yahoo.com&amp;\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" wmode=\"transparent\" flashvars=\"vid=25146727&amp;shareUrl=http%3A\/\/personallyyours.mail.yahoo.com&amp;\" \/><\/object><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thank you to Yahoo!
