Ditto May in Jersey. I am not into texting either. A couple of years ago when talking to nephew on cell phones, and I ask for his cell number - we were on the way to the hospital for my brother's surgery at the time, and I wanted to call nephew to find out the room number - wee morning hours. He said he would just text me,when I said I didn't text, he said he would show me how when I arrived. I said no I bought my phone to talk on, I could use my computer for typing. I still don't text, but thumbs up for all who do and want to.
Funny story I am sure son and all he told loved your DH text message.
