Good to see you sparking some conversation in this echo... :)  I've been
running behind on answering messages, so am just now getting to this...
so, a belated welcome...  ;)

How lovely to reconnect with your daughter..  :)  As she is on the verge
of adulthood herself, you can talk with her pretty much adult to
adult...  I'd encourage you to encourage her to tell you about herself,
however she wishes to proceed, and ask what questions that come up for
clarification... She's probably curious about you, and what makes you
tick, too...  :)  Did she initiate the contact...?
