I love technology

Sometimes living so far away from home (950kms) i feel like i lose touch with some of the stuff that goes on with my family... smses like the ones i have received this week, however, put me right back there in the midst of the madness that is the Berry family:

the first one i got from my dad earlier this week:

"Lindz mum has shown me how to use predictive text smart hey love dad"

(it still makes me laugh every time i read it) but it is an improvement on his smsing technique because in the past he would just leave out approximately every second vowel and then deciphering the smses would be a guessing game of the English language... now he just leaves out punctuation :p

then i got another sms from my mom this morning, part of which read:

"I am sitting here with 90 grade ones watching a pooh movie - exciting stuff"

(my mom is a grade one teacher and she usually has a class of about 30 kids... but today the other two grade one teachers were both absent)

The beauty of smses is that they can keep you in touch with the little things, which are sometimes the things which matter the most!

:D i love the madness of life and the greatness of my family :D

people may read your blog because they may be hoping that they will know you one day. if i did not know you i would still read your blog because you tend to make an impression on people like you did on me when i did not know you. i hope that will bring some clarity. your mommy must have super powers

This one's for you Linds..
I know a friend by the surname Berry. I don't know if she likes Dairy. I do know when she smiles, she smiles Very.So much so,she makes my heart Merry. Get one of her hugs when you feel Weary because she is such a Dearie. I don't know if she watched lil house on the Prairie, I just know she's a pretty cool Cherrie.
That's our friend Lindsey Berry.
