Sarah picks up the Tab

Tab. Moves keyboard focus to the next component or to the first member of the next group of components. ref

To the left of qwerty on the keyboard is the tab key.  It is used for several functions on the computer.  The use I never thought of before was quite amazing.  A close member of my family thought this up on her own.  Although, perhaps, not the first time someone has thought it up it is certainly the first time for her.  It was quite an innocent thing, really.  She didn’t know it was possible to do this but she sure figured it out quickly.  My wife was using my laptop and Sarah-Joy was right next to her just having fun.  Sarah reached over and just took the tab key right off.  I should mention at this point that Sarah-Joy is 9 months old.

She reached over, grabbed the tab key, and grinned forever.  She was so proud of herself.  The key doesn’t just pop back on though.  Dell tech support was great.  I’ll have another keyboard for my laptop in a couple of days.  I’m glad it was under warranty.
