(I always answer comments on my own blog and it feels unnatural to do it here).uberR: I totally forgot about that Mash scene. Funny! Otir: hey stranger! Thanks! Love to hear from my fellow geek mama! Jake: I already have 2 little kids! Private Void: Thank you! Love your icon pic by the way. Baker=fav dr. who Tyler: wow. You must have had some pretty geeky parents if you can relate this article to your own spawn-age! How did having geek parents work out for you? Hunter: hrmmm, social media apps. I'll have to think about that. Female issue hardware operate that software better at earlier ages. We used ASL (American Sign Language) with our spawn and it was wildly successful. It is also a good set up for future sm apps. Good luck.Thanks everyone for commenting! This is fun! I wonder what the winning entry will be! I'm so curious, aren't you? did they go for controversy, was it an uber geeky thing? Can't wait to see!
