I Rode The Triceratops To School Until I Was Old Enough To Afford My Own Velociraptor

According to a note sent home from Kindergarten, Friday is now "Media Center Day" for The Senator's classroom. Today he will be allowed to bring home a book for the first time. According to the note, written by the 'Media Specialsit' (that's how it was spelled):

This is an exciting moment for your child. It's a "grown-up" feeling being allowed to choose a book, bring it home, and have the personal responsibility of properly caring for it."
Jeez. I hope The Senator brings home feeding instructions. I suppose I should put newspapers all over his bedroom floor.

On the way to the bus stop, we talked about the Media Center.

In my day, we called it a library.

Yeah, Mom, but we have books AND computers!

Yep. We didn't have computers when I was in kindergarten.

Did you have cars?

I pushed him into the mud puddle and walked home.

I hope it was a deep one.

I'm prepared for when he asks me if they had books when I was in kindergarten.

A friend of mine once asked her mum what it was like when everything was black and white.
