Times are a Changin'


A conversation about homework yesterday:

Allie:  Mom, I don't get this!  I am supposed to look up my name and see if it there are greater than or less than 20 names.  What?!
Me:  Allie they want you to look up your last name in the phone book and then see how many other people are listed with your last name.
Allie:  Oh.  What's a phone book?!

So true!

"Those were the Good Old days"! You could also say, "What is an Encyclopedia"? We just had to have a World Book for our kids, now they probably don't even make them anymore.

I just cleaned out a hall closet and tossed those ancient books. None of my kids really need a booster seat anymore.
