Signs of the times…

I once wrote about McCanless’ knowledge of iPods in 3K in a post entitled, “Signs of the Times.”  Yesterday, Mary Clare threw me for a loop when I realized how quickly children learn and adapt.  She and I were looking through photos on my laptop.  She wanted to see a photo of McCanless in a princess dress that we previously viewed.  She grew annoyed with me because I didn’t go back to that specific photo.  She grabbed my laptop and brushed the screen to scroll back up, which is exactly how the touch screen iPhone operates.  I had no idea she knew how to use my iPhone.  To test her, I handed her my phone.  She pressed the button to open it up, slid the touch screen bar to unlock the home screen and then began to scroll through my application icons and opened up the several children’s applications and songs I have saved on it for her.  Wow.  I knew McCanless had become a pro on my computer and  iPhone, but I had no idea Mary Clare was well on her way as well.
