Now that she’s a ripe, old six year old, the Kid is getting more comfortable on computers.
A little too comfortable.
She’s making freaky self-portraits on iphoto.
Plus, since reading and writing has entered her world, she’s begun creating Word documents and emailing (on my account).
The hubs figured this might save us all some grief tonight, so he sent bedtime instructions to the Kid via email, but the Kid, naturally, had her own reply:
(actual email addresses have been changed to deter other 6 year olds from emailing us)
She did finally go to bed, but we found that laptops don’t really have the persuasion capability that, say, a thick belt with a fat, metal buckle threat of No Books does.
I’m sure it’s only a matter of time nanoseconds before she surpasses us in technological knowledge.
Are your offspring running computer circles around you?

When our kid was very young, he was already typing and computer savvy. And yet he was three so he wanted to send email to Super Grover every day. So we had to alias my husband’s email address as “Super Grover” in the address book so that it would resolve. We came across that entry a year or so later and couldn’t help but smile.

My children are already smarter than me on so many levels. I am afraid to give them more computer time…Then I will officially be the stupidest one in this house…besides the dog.
kristen, that’s so cute, supergrover dad.
dumblond, we battle with position for the level of the dog. she’s pretty scary sometimes and tops us.
LOL! What a great story (that I will be repeating…) Go Meryl! (Oops…..I guess I should be on the parents side….)
