Lizzie Finally Has a Mac...and an iPhone. The world as we know it may end!

Last year I had Caleb research good web computers for me. He searched and searched and finally decided the Google Chrome was the machine for me. At $400, it was perfect. I loved that computer...lightweight and it was a zippy little rascal. Then it quit charging and to make a long story short, after returning it for the third time, we decided to just get our money back. Thinking that any computer would be fine, I ordered a little Acer for $200. Biggest piece of junk invented...Acer should be ashamed to themselves for even selling that computer. Caleb has had a big Mac for years and recently spent his money on a Macbook Pro. This past week, Caleb let me play with his Mac Pro and I loved it. He has tried to get me to get an Apple computer for years, but the cost held me back. So he has been saving his money and he told me if I paid for part of it, he would chip in his $900 savings and order it for me. I chose a Macbook Air. It came this morning. It is wonderful...Caleb was so right. Yesterday, after hating my Droid 2 for two years, I was finally able to trade that rat phone in for an iPhone 4S. In two days I have gone from technology poor to rich as rich can be. I love the phone and will use it to keep in touch with my friends and family with the super cute Face Time feature. But as nice as the phone and computer are, the thing that really makes me happy is my son. My son wanted me to be happy so badly that he chipped in his hard earned money to get it all for me. I don't know a lot of 17 year old boys that would do that. My son is God's blessing to James and me. He has brought me so much joy in the past three years while I have homeschooled him. He is a true child of God and once again, I am blessed. And yes, my dear daughter Ryan...I haven't forgotten you. You love us enough to trek to Alaska with blind trust that we will find jobs and be ok. My heart is full as we move forward to the big moving day...
