Seriously?! Who Leaves a Book at Your Doorstep?

When I heard those words, it made me feel so old! The book they were talking about was a phone book! My kids had never seen one before and I had to explain  what a phone book was in the first place.  “But that’s crazy! People can just go on the internet and look things up!” they said.

In that moment, I felt ancient...really ancient! Technology is changing our culture at lightening speed. I mean think about all of the things that our kids have never seen or used:
My kids really have no idea how far technology has come in the last 30 years. When I was growing up my dad use to own a computer store. He would build and fix computers and we grew up with the latest technology. But if my kids were to see those same computers that I grew up with, I’m sure they would respond the same way as the kids in the following video: ​
It’s funny because I thought I was pretty hip to the latest technology and then one day I was inputting our babysitter’s information in my phone when she informed me that I was totally a “mommy-texter” aka “slow!”

​What’s really funny,  is that this generation of kids are totally making fun of parents and grandparents using the technology of this age. Watch these funny videos:


Times are changing but I’m going to do my best to keep up.  At least I don't have an AOL email address!!
