Time to Be A Kid

In the winter, we alwalys had playtime before supper. Then we would gather around the dining room table and do our homework. If we got done quickly, we would do art projects. Now all that time is gobbled up with the marvels of our electronic world. Sometimes, I think it is sad. It is not much different for adults than it is for kids. We never get away from devices which, supposedly, were designed to make our lives better. I think I was happy when only Flash Gordon had a cell phone. But then again, they can be a great blessing. If a family needs contact, they can have it. By the way, sign me up for girl's camp. M
