Busy?

Hope called her friend last night, squealed, and handed me the phone, "Mom! It's doing something weird!"
Really, Hope, in this fast paced society when everyone has call waiting, caller ID, cell phones, texting, voice mail, and answering machines you have never heard a busy signal?

This one is for Val who has been potty training something fierce. (Not saying Layla is fierce.)
Eli said to me (2 days after he heard this from Val) Mom I didn't pee in my underwear all day so can you take me to Arctic Circle to get an ice cream? (It took him 2 days to be able to say this.)

And finally, the reason my eyes are glazed over from lack of sleep.
