The six year old I babysit showed me her Christmas list last night. Instead of asking for childhood toys like barbies or games she was asking for an ipod and a cell phone. Is that normal? Is technology really taking over this generation of children? As a child I spent my years in fantasy worlds with my pound puppies and my barbies...I can't imaging choosing a piece of metal, that was guaranteed to break, over that. Even to this day I miss the days that I could disappear into those worlds. I hope that she isn't missing out on those things. Her three year old sister had other things on her mind...makeup. I would say that a three year old is way too young to experiment with makeup, but she spends half the time eating it or painting the floors with nail polish.
I'm trying so hard to put money aside for a new camera. I don't want to bring my crappy old one to Cabo and deal with it for 2 weeks while I'm there. My life has basically been taken over by work but the end result is a trip to Mexico with one of my favorite people so I guess it's worth it in the end. 21 days
As for big events coming up in my near future...well the list is growing:
December 20th - Habs/Sabres with Mel.
January 10th-23rd - Cabo San Lucas with Jenn & family
January 24th - NHL All Star Practice with Laura/Kathy/Ava/Etc
January 31st - Habs/Kings with James
February 20th - The New Cities in Montreal with the gang
March 6th - We The Kings/The Cab/ There For Tomorrow in Montreal
