Last week my grandmother bought her first smartphone.

At first she was afraid of it.

She called me every day with a new question.

How do I send a photo? How do I turn off the sound?

I went to her house and showed her everything.

Yesterday I got a message from her.

It was a picture of her cat wearing a hat.

Now she sends me ten photos a day.
