Me: No, I can get my groceries later, do you want me to come over now [to install child locks on the bathroom cabinet] instead?
AJ: No, no, that's okay, get your groceries and then I can <BANG!> Miri, what was that?
Miri (in background): Nothing!
AJ: Are you sure you're okay? You don't want to break that before I have a chance to hang it up!
Mir (closer to phone)i: It just fell a little bit.
AJ: I hope the coat rack I bought for her room lasts long enough to me to hang it up....
Miri (even closer to phone): I want to talk to Grandma!
AJ: It's not Grandma on the phone. I'm talking to Uncle Brian.
Miri (next to phone): I want to talk to Uncle Brian! (AJ hands the phone to her daughter.) Hi, Uncle Brian! <babble babble babble> I got to hang up now so I can put my jacket away!
Me: Please don't hang up, Honey, give the phone back to Mommy. I love you, 'bye...
Miri: Bye!
AJ: Okay, so just give me a call when- <THUD!> I'd better go before she destroys the kitchen..
