So now that I have a child I tend to think of how much things have changed since I was a child, and I am a young parent!
I grew up in a VERY small town where everyone knew everyone, so it is different then out here. However I think it has gotten a little crazy. The other day Curt and I were driving and I saw this young kid talking away on his cell phone while walking from school probably, so I asked Curt how old he was when he first got a cell phone. He told me probably 13... I was in grade 11!! Thats the difference from small towns to city living I guess. Still I think it has gone a little crazy.. I came accross this post today on one of my friends facebook:
When I was a kid I didn't have an X-box, Wii. I had a bike and a curfew, the street lights. Mom didn't call my cell, she yelled outside, "time to come in". I played outside with friends, not online. If I didn't eat what my mom cooked, I went hungry. Hand sanitizer didn't exist, but you could get your mouth washed out with soap. Re-post this if drank water out of hose and survived!!! ;)
This was exactly my childhood! So it got me inspired today to make
some things I enjoyed when I was little (SIMPLE things).
Grayer actually LOVED the homemade musical instruments lol.
I hope more people can be inspired to share little things from
there childhood with their children. I think it's important and special.
Weekend is almost here and it is going to be another busy one!
Cheers,
