I'm Getting Old.... *sigh* (by Thom)

Today I was reading the twins a story before nap time. In the book was a picture of a living room and there was a boom box-style radio on the floor. "What's that Daddy? asked Hannah. I told them it was a radio. They cocked their heads a bit, looked quizzical. "Ok...." was their response, like they were accepting the answer but not really believing it. Honestly, we don't own a radio. We have MP3 players and we'll listen to US radio stations over the internet through our computers. Contrast this to something that happened over the weekend: I was showing the girls one of the videos of them on the video page of our redesigned website and while playing the video paused and a little circle in the center began spinning around. "It's buffering! It's buffering!" Hannah exclaimed. They're three years old and they know YouTube but not a CD....

Post Script: I've thought in the past that when my kids hear that I didn't have the internet growing up they'll look at me the same way I look at my mom when she tells me they didn't have indoor plumbing when she was a child.
