As a grandmother (4 kids, ages 2 -10) I plan on getting this app once
I figure out why nothing I do with my current CM rom gets me access to
paid applications.  I've purchased many apps in the past, so I'm sure
I'll get it figured out eventually...

One nit - ancestral itself doesn't have anything to do with houses,
although that's probably its most common use.

A couple of things that would make something like this even more
cool.  A variable that would let a parent or grandparent enter a
child's name would be my first thought.  (Do they still sell those on-
demand books where you give pet's names, siblings, etc.?)  The other
thing I thought of while watching the video is that I would pay much
more than .99 for a desktop application/framework that would let me
create my own story that could be output to my phone.

Good work - and good luck!

Terry
