Rituals

[Ikneelonly4Daddy]

What sorts of rituals and routines have you integrated into your day? Daddy and I are in a LDR many time zones apart and want to put some things into place that will deepen our relationship.

*waves* Hiya! 

 

Daddy and I were 9134 miles apart for at least 13 months, I definitely feel the stress and yearning you might be experiencing.

 

A thing that REALLY helped Daddy and I were photo updates:

 

- Selfie when both get up

- Selfie when both get to work/school

- Photos of food to show I (the little) was eating properly

- Daddy showing what he was doing during the day

- Selfies when both get home

- Photos of what is happening during the evening (gaming, movies, etc)

- Photos before bed

 

Obviously there were talks, video calls, text, etc. But those photos REALLY helped feel closer AND it really enforced the dynamic: 'Sweetheart where is your photo? You know you are to...' or ' Daddy! Where are you? You never told me you got to work!' etc.

 

That is the biggest thing that helped us with the distance.

MIght I also suggest Friday night movies? If you use the website Rabb.it you can watch something together without being tech wizards.

We aren't LDR but we aren't together every day, mostly just weekends.

We do a video call every night. He requires me to tell Him my daily schedule by text. i have a meditation where i kneel with my eyes closed and repeat a short mantra about my service and submission to Him. One of His rules is to eat well and get regular exercise, so each evening i send a list of what i have eaten that day, and what exercise i have done. Healthy living is extremely important to both of us.

Papa and I always say good morning to each other, then we text throughout the day.  But then when I get home from work and it gets later (9ish usually) we watch movies/shows together on rabb.it, then before bed we call for about 20-40 minutes and talk about our days and such.

My daddy and I are LDR with a big time difference but we have a few routines. I can't call him until I've eaten breakfast due to me skipping it so often before. We always let each other know what our schedules are for the next day, and I always let him know when I'm going to bed. Due to the time change I'm usually still awake when he's waking up and I like to call him so he can get rid of all the bad dreams I might have. Another thing I like to do is call him when I'm going into school or work just to have those last few minutes with him before I have to be big.
