like father like son

Every now and then I marvel at how different our children’s lives will be compared to ours.

The above photo is of me doing my MBA homework while my youngest son, Seth, plays games on PBSkids.org. When I was his age my father was getting his Masters and I was watching Sesame Street on PBS. It was one of 4 local channels.

Those of us wrapped up in the internet like to marvel at how much has changed in the last 10 years. I can’t even begin to wonder at what things will be like in 30 years when my son is sitting around with his 3 year old.

When Ella was about 2 1/2, we were watching an hour long Dora special (which is normally 20 min) & she was completly confused as to why her show wasn’t on all of a sudden (aka: commercials). It was “live” & I couldn’t fast forward it, she was in tears. Long live TiVo.
