remote generation

You can tell that Sam has grown up in a generation of remote controls. He thinks you can just "pause" anything! When we're reading a book, he'll say, "Pause the book mom!" this morning we were walking down the the stairs together and he said, "Pause this, mom, I need to get something." It's funny--I feel like we should all freeze so we can truly be "paused." It would be nice to have a giant remote control that would pause life when we needed a breather, wouldn't it?
