Phone Calls Home

March 13, 2009

You should have been here to see this.
This is a picture of Arica walking around
the house with the cell phone talking.
Arica talks to mommy almost everyday.
She does not like to talk on the house
phone as much as the cell phone. She
gets so excited to talk on the cell phone.
We put the phone on speaker so we can
help Arica talk to her mommy and daddy.
I tell her mommy is on the phone and
she takes it and puts it up to her ear.
Sometimes her chin touches the buttons
and makes beeping noises. Mommy
asked if she was using Morse Code to talk
to her.

Sometimes she would also stand at the
window looking out and jabber away on
the phone. Then she would move to the
next window and keep talking.
It is very hard to get her to give up the
phone. Now when the phone rings, she
thinks it's mommy. She keeps saying
"mommy, mommy." Sometimes I have
to tell her it's not mommy. Sometimes
she reaches up to the house phone and
says, "mommy!" I ask her if she wants
to talk to mommy. She giggles and she
shakes her whole body back n forth.
This means "yes". She gets really excited.
So then we have to try to call mommy!
