WE'RE MOBILE

This weekened, is our bi-weekly visit with the other two boys. My son lives with us, and is only gone the weekends when, the other boys are gone. We were eating dinner yesterday evening, and I was talking to all three boys. Suddenly, our oldest whipped out his new cell phone. Appearently, his Mother had bought him one for Christmas. I made sone #2, go and get his. He proudly produced his "Fire Fly" cell phone, to his older brother.

He knew that it wasn't exactly the same thing as a real cell phone. However, he is proud of it none-the-less. Again, son #1 didn't tease him in that regard either. He said, "that's pretty cool." Then, they exchanged cell phone numbers that the dinner table. Actually, I had to do that for him. It's funny, how last week my husband was throwing a fit about son #2 having a cell phone. However, when son #1 got one, it's not that big of a deal. It's actually pretty convenient now. We don't have to chase them down to tell them to come home, or wonder what they are doing. Last night for example, they were down at the neighbor girls house. Just to be sure, I called to see what they were doing.

I also had my brother, put son #1's cell phone number in his phone as well. Son #1, is always calling, to give him a hard time or something. I was talking to my husband later and said, "do you realize that, two out of three of our kids have cell phones?" I'm sure that, son #3 is feeling a little left out. Again, he is entirely too absent minded to have even the "Fire Fly" cell phone just yet. When we were younger and went outside to play, we were just left too face the world and whatever it held in store for us. Do Ya'll remember those days?
