Showing Her Age
During one of our recent phone conversations, my mother and I were discussing the happenings of the kids. To be honest, most of our discussions usually center around the kids. Kids kids kids. I need to get out more.
On this occasion, between one child barking an obscenely shrill order and coaxing Buzz off the kitchen counter that he’s scaled for the upteenth time, I was informing my mom how Abby has mastered the art of strutting like it’s her business. So well, in fact, that she’s practically running.
Mom: Have you taken a picture of her walking, like down the hallway?
Me: I’ve tried, but they come out blurry.
Mom: Too bad you don’t have one of them moving cameras.
Yes, mom, moving cameras. Did you know that film comes in color now, too? Technology these days. There’s even this thing called digital. Which you UPLOAD. On a COMPUTER. It’ll BLOW YOUR MIND.
Because apparently, she’s still living in the 1940′s.

LOL Oh my gosh I totally snorted out loud on this one!! I still remember the first time my Grandma saw my digital camera and it showed the picture after you took it and she almost had a heart attack right then and there!
