Communication...

We are a very modern, up to date household and our communications skills demonstrate this...

"9:21 AM me (on the laptop upstairs checking my email before making my bed): are you STILL on the internet?

Hmmm????

Anna (downstairs in the living room): I'm about to get off

-- Gee-eez!

Now, if I could just afford blackberries for everyone, I could be in constant contact with all eight children during the day... and never leave my bedroom.
