Within the past month, both of my parents have upgraded their cell phones and taken a technological leap by getting iPhones. It's hilarious because neither of them have had smartphones before and yet now they can't live without them.
Dad has resorted to texting more than talking to me anymore (partially because of the new phone and the other reason being his new found love life) and while Mom still checks in via phone about 90% of the time, she does text me quite a bit now too. But, Mom's big leap has been taking pics of recipes and then emailing them to me so that I have them for future use. When I talked to Mom earlier this evening she asked if I got the latest recipe she sent last night....a french onion soup recipe that I will just love! Yep Mom, I got the recipe but until these 95+ degree days pass, I'm not making much more than a sandwich, let alone hot soup.
Its been comical to see what each one of them will be up to next. I'm waiting for my Dad to get a Facebook or Twitter account now and since Mom already had a Facebook account and is now sending me invites for games like Candy Crush Saga, I'm thinking she'll be recommending Apps for my phone soon enough.
Ahhh parents....gotta love them!
