Yesterday for FHE our family was talking about phone manners or how to be polite on the phone. We got Emma's play phone out and I was pretending to call each kid so that they could practice. Emma was the first one to go...
Mom: Ring, ring.
Emma: Hello, may I ask who's speaking pleas?
Mom: This is Shirley, is your mom available?
At this point Emma paused for a minute as if trying to decide what to say. Finally she said in her sweetest and most polite voice...
Emma: What does available mean?
We were sitting in sacrament meeting on Sunday and Hannah was getting bored. She was sitting on my lap and fidgeting around. I kept having to tell her to hold still. Finally she'd had enough and in exasperation said, "Mom, when is this guy gonna stop talking!?"
