When our connection goes down we are completely useless, we run around like lost dogs or frightened kittens confused about everything. How do we know what the temperature is outside or if anyone has liked our latest status? We can't even phone anyone to find out because all the information is in the phone or computer.
Any woo, my 8yo daughter really feels like she need a new iPod touch and wrote a letter to my husband. I loved it enough to share it with you. I have left the spelling exactly how it was:
To Daddy doo,
Reasons Why I should Get a New iPod Touch
Reson 1
Mine is all cracked and it dosen't work propperly
Reson 2
The game moves and the sound comes after it
Reson 3
It takes a long time to load and it takes longer to turn of and on
Reson 4

To be completely honest, I was annoyed that she was asking for another iPod when she was lucky enough to already have one, but I have completely moved to 'Team new iPod'. I really respect her convincing argument. I hate it when these littlies outsmart me.
My kids are the same. We have ipads, ipods, etc, it seems technology is everywhere around us. I fear sometimes that they are too technological and are missing out on the opportunities to play by themselves like we did when we were younger...but I'm doing my best to get some balance for them. We'll see how we go!
ReplyDeleteOh that is gorgeous. My 9 yo son has been asking for an ipod touch for about a year, his Dad has one that he never uses, so I keep telling him to go and use that one (I'm notso good at sharing my iPhone 4s).
ReplyDeleteApparently it's not the same. He won't use it as this will then water down the argument that he hasn't got one and everyone else has. phhhhft I admire his conviction but really? Kids are way smarter these days hey!
I am so out of touch. I don't own an "i"-anything.... I do love my crackberry though... still... I'm feeling the "i"-envy right now... ;)
