I spend a lot of time in my day thinking about technology. How is has made some things easier and some things more difficult. I have days when I relish the thought of shutting everything off and "unplugging" and also days when I can think of nothing but being online and sharing things with my friends far away.
I have discovered this week one thing that technology has been good for. Last Sunday I sent Aeryn off to camp for the first time with the plan of her being gone for two weeks. This will be the longest span of time my little girl and I have ever been apart. Something we were both excited for and fearful about at the same time.
However, I have found some comfort. Every evening around six o'clock I have been able to log onto Facebook and see the pictures that the camp has posted from the previous day. So far I have seen my little girl swimming, dancing, getting a full body paint job and lot of other things. I am comforted by the fact that I know she is having fun and meeting new people.
During this week I have spent lots of time with Alex. What a precocious little toddler he is! Since we both came home from the fair with nasty colds we have spent a lot of time cuddling watching movies and drinking juice.
He is turning into such an interesting little character. This morning he danced when he saw that I was cooking bacon. He tears the house apart just as fast as I can pick it up while at the same time makes me laugh my tush off. I am sure the poor dog is going to be happy when Aeryn comes home because Aeryn provides a bit of protection from Alex's attentions.
