I was dismayed and heartbroken to hear of the recent attacks on London. Truly one of the world’s great cities, I love London Town, had the privilege of visiting this past May, which I still haven\u2019t posted about as I\u2019ve been too busy to blog, but I wasn\u2019t surprised to hear that pub patrons hurled chairs and pints at the murderers. Carry on. Remain calm. That is the British way, but what choice do people have except to fight back? Resist terror. Sadly, extremists cannot see that their attempts at destruction are epic fails, as my gamer son would say,\u00a0 my son being a much more cheery topic. His YouTube channel, RAYCEVICK<\/a>,\u00a0 just reached 100,000 subscribers!<\/p>\n

A digital native, my media savvy, technically adroit son has been on the Internet since he can remember. Lucas started his first YouTube channel and taught himself how to edit video at the tender age of ten, which is not really surprising as he\u2019s been surrounded by musicians, poets and artists all his life. We did limit screen time and monitor his online activities, including video gaming, and I worry that he isolates himself at times, but he\u2019s carving out a niche, and it appears able to make living doing what his loves. In other words, he\u2019s blowing me out of the water. I am one proud mama.<\/p>\n
