Big news, people. My mother got a smartphone today. Not just any smartphone. My mother got an iPhone 4. It was free. Okay, that's cool.
Do you want to know why she got a smartphone after all this time (I only just taught her how to text a year ago)?
Because Nic wanted to play games on her phone when we were driving home on Saturday night and she had to tell him she didn't have any games on her phone. The look he gave her is pretty much the look any child gives an adult when they realize that they aren't on a level playing field technologically speaking.
Nic is 2. Nic can navigate my sister's iPhone and my iPod with surprising ease.
My mother is downstairs right now (I just left her after half an hour of trying to help but not doing a great job because we got stuck on what her iTunes password is), trying to figure out how to answer the phone when it rings.
But she has games now.
