Extra Advice

Just wanted to offer some friendly advice...
If you have a five year old who loves to talk, you might not want to dream that it's even possible to distract her enough that you can use the phone.  If you press you luck and attempt to make a phone call, you will get an automated message, and the computer will ask you a series of yes/no verbal response questions.  This will occur at the same exact time your five year old has to ask 1,000 yes/no questions that she just has to have answered right that very second.  And it will royally screw your attempt to get things done.  Did you know those things can pick up a whisper?

You realize, don't you, that she does that just to see you get all discombobulated? BWAHAHAHA! Yes, ma'am, I do believe she was probably doing her own tiny, 5-year-old, silent "bwahaha" at doing thatto you, too!

None of this would be happening if you would just get her a TV for her room. :)

I have a 12 and 14 year old. Believe me it doesn't get any better. They are off doing their thing in their room or in their "den", as soon as I pick up the phone, that's when they have to ask me questions that need an immediate response. Watt until your child has calls to make and return the favor...it's worked for me somewhat :S
