Yesterday Maja found my iPod and wanted to listen to some music. I sat her down, turned down the volume, and plugged her in.

Her glee when I clipped the iPod to her waistband was astounding — she could walk and listen to music? Cool. Only problem there was that everytime the earbuds fell out, which was fairly frequently, she said “Mom! The music switched off!!”

clown bank

I can’t remember when I received this money bank… sometime in the late 1970s or early 1980s. This is another one of those childhood keepsakes which my mom unloaded on me. Before Mr. Clown made his arrival in Philly my mom spruced him up a little bit — a new red bow and a new flower in his hat!
