Well, if I had picked up the phone I would have said "it's too late, he's in bed" and hung up! :~D

When I started the teenage phone talking, Dad got me my own line in my room....

I think she's gotten the message of when NOT to call. Wife took care of that at 4:00 a.m. She did let them talk (he was apparently waiting for the call) 'cause she'd promised to take Jr. out to Waffle House when she got home from work. But she had a "chat" with the young lady before she gave Jr. the phone.

What's buggin' me now is the length of time they are staying on the phone. Yesterday I was taking Luke to King's Dominion and had gone by the ATM. I realized I had my wife's pass and not mine, so I tried to call the house for a solid 15 minutes so that someone could just run mine out to the car (and not get Luke out of the car seat, etc.). When I got to the house...Jr. got the message.

Wife and I will talk today about how we set time limits.
