Rachel and her friend, Dani, played at the playground after their swim lessons and before Rachel's 5 p.m. party at her friend Madeline's house. Drew said that Rachel seemed a bit put out and disappointed that Dani didn't want to stay at the playground as long as she did.
She later told Drew: "I think I know why Dani didn't want to stay at the playground. Some people with a lot of devices would rather watch videos or play on their devices. I'm glad we're old-fashioned." (We are old-fashioned, apparently because we only have seven devices -- our two computers, three cellphones, one TV and a Kindle.)
Of course, just as I thought that we appear to be raising our own little Jane Austen, she insisted on getting on Drew's computer tonight and spent half an hour writing on her classroom blog (it was only three sentences, but she spent a lot of time hunting and pecking for keys. Gotta get her into a typing class when she's old enough because I can't imagine getting through life without being able to touch type, like I'm doing right now).
And she said that when she gets a laptop, she wants it to be purple, with pink keys.
