Happy Monther's Day!

"USB port", "Google it"...we often mention those terms nowadays when I talk to my mom on the phone. Just about two years ago when my mom said she wanted a PC on the internet, my brother, sister, and myself were like 'Are you sure?' We started picturing her calling every day and asking the most basic questions. For example, two years ago when my mom visited me, she tried to use my computer while I was at work. Of course she at time she didn't know how to operate it. So she turned on the monitor without turning on the hard drive. A minutes or so later, the monitor popped up two messages "Searching for output device" and "Going to sleep", and then turned itself off. My mom was like 'Huh? Go to sleep?!' My brother and I laughed so hard.
But one thing about my mom...she is NOT afraid of anything. She pressed on and got herself a PC and hooked up to the net. Now she often takes the lead. Mom wants to see live pictures of her grand children, and we all went out and get ourselves webcam and signed in skype.
Then for a while there was no email or anything from her. What's going on, mother? The neck hurts looking up at the screen for too long, we were told.

Happy Mother's Day!
