Computers

Julia was overjoyed to receive her own computer for Christmas this year.  She has been primarily using it to type stories and poems, or to search the internet for various homework assignments like her recent school project on The Underground Railroad.

Madeleine has used Auntie Shannon's computer over the last few months to type her own story about a rebel girl named Siri Joller.  This weekend, Auntie Shannon got a new computer for work, so she passed down the old one to Madeleine.  One day in, I found Madeleine on an internet search of images of vacant-eyed, soulless dolls from horror movies, with the phrase "dolls kill" in the search tab.

Needless to say, we had to have a talk about what the internet is allowed for at her age.

Just when I was starting to finally think Madeleine had gotten over her sociopathic creepy image phase...
