My friend Beth called me this afternoon and there were pestering children on both her end and mine.

‘Who’s that?’

‘Who’s on the phone?’

‘Can I talk?’

‘I’m hungry.’

So we let Jonah talk to Lucie and it was very cute. He told her what he was doing and that they would be going to Ikea together the next day and asked her what she was doing. Then I think she hung up on him. Oh well.

He was A.DOR.A.BLE. His first phone call with a girl! Awe, I’m already planning the wedding (at least I know that I’ll like the inlaws!).

I’m watching Pride and Prejudice (my normal rotation between WW and P+P) and Jonah comes downstairs.

“They’re having a party”, he says.

“Mmm hmm.”

“They need balloons.”

He’s right, after all. What’s a party without balloons?
