First Month

Madelyn has had a cell phone for about a month and a half. Scott got the first bill from her phone a few days ago... how many texts do you think a 5th grader can send in 30 days?

510. Yep, that's five hundred and ten separate text messages. In thirty days.

Now fortunately texting is super cheap, equivalent to about a penny per text. So it's not about the money. No, more about how are we spending our time? And wouldn't it really be more efficient to just CALL the person with whom you want to converse?

But then again, I think I may also be guilty on this count of over texting. Probably best for me to stop talking about it.

Maybe I'll just text you.
