Mom is on the Phone ...

I don't know what it is, but there must be some unspoken law in kid-land that causes all children to go hay-wire loud crazy and obnoxious the second their mother is on the phone.  They have a knack of choosing the most inopportune moment to cause a commotion.  It is like telephone gravity or something.

I could do several hundred sketches of these instances -- but two of the most recent will have to suffice.

Example A
 I am trying to make a Dr.'s appointment... and of course am on hold for EVER... the boys seem to be fine happily playing in the background.





And then just as my call is finally answered phone gravity strikes and loud screaming is heard in the background!



No kidding - I don't know how it happened but Trey was under the basket and Dantley was happily jumping on top of it.




Example B

Like all pre-terrible two year olds, Dantley has an obsession with electronics -- especially phones






And well - my phone is old, sensative and sick and has some serious issues...



Later --- Ring Ring Ring...











Like I said - my phone (and maybe the user) have some issues...


Several minutes later as I am using my very business-like voice and acting like I know what the heck I am doing running my own business --- the door bursts open....

And --- in case you were wondering...
Yes - it still was on speaker phone.

 Phone Gravity I tell you
there is no stopping it.


P.S. if you are curious about why I would be having a business call check out my Flipzles facebook page -- HERE

I know -- shameless -- but I got to get my head around marketing them if I want to be able to keep making them.

Such cute puzzles! I'm not seeing a shop website...am I missing it? (And yes: phone gravity. It exists!)

Thanks for the comment Myrnie! No shop website yet. There is one in the works though. The puzzles are currently being manufactured and once we have them the website will go live :)
