Call me the exterminator because I'm getting rid of bugs. Of course, they're the digital kind. But it's been a few rounds of laying down the bait and traps before I got to a functional site. But now that I'm here, it's time to get some valuable feedback.
As any proud daughter would, I've sent the link to my parents. I channeled the same enthusiasm I had for creating a refrigerator magnet at 6-years-old too. I wonder, when they log in and look around will they feel the same way they responded to me when I handed them the magnet? I do know it's still on their refrigerator today, so maybe there are just some things that just can't be outdone.
After pressing send, it made me think how quickly life moves because that's actually probably one of the more vivid memories I have of that age, but it was decades ago. What's even more chaotic is my oldest is that age now!
I don't know if my kids will remember fondly the time that I spent at a laptop screen typing, coding, and thinking. They'll probably see pictures of themselves in my arms after I had returned to work, being exposed to screens while only weeks old. My COVID-era kids only know mom works on her laptop all day, cooks, does a Bluey freeze dance with us, and then gets back on her laptop. I just hope a strong desire to continue to learn and build new skills is both contagious and hereditary.
