This morning.
William: mom! Mom!
Mom: what? What!
W: I found your cell phone in the kitchen! Aren't you happy?
M: actually, I knew where my phone was, can you put it back?
W: here mom! ( hands me the phone as I am using both hands to put up Amelia's hair and simultaneously keep Gemma from pulling Amelia's hair. This task requires a minimum of 6 hands).
M: William, I don't have any pockets and I can't take the phone right now. Can you please put it back in the kitchen?
W: I'll find a good place to put it mom.
(Rustling)
W: there! I put it in the laundry bucket ( dirty clothes hamper)
M: William, do you think mama will ever find her phone there?
(More rustling)
W: there! I just put it between the towels on the top shelf of the closet! No one will get it there!
M: (arg). William! Do you think I will ever be able to find my phone there?
W: well, where should I put it?
M: how about the kitchen like I asked the first time?
W: I know!
(Rustling continues. Gemma has now found the toothpaste cabinet open and I am wrestling a bottle if lotion and 2 tubes of toothpaste away from her)
W: I just put it in my bed mom! It is very safe there!
M: what? Where in your bed?
W: (silence)
M: ack! William! Where did you put my cell phone?
W: (silence)
M: William? (Sigh)
