Little Miss Thing, age 4, pulls ancient flip phone from her pocket.”I have a phone now.”
Me: “It’s a nice phone.”
LMT: “It’s not real. I still call people, but they don’t talk back.”

Coiled Again
When trying to describe a special watering hose to Danger Monkey, the phrase “coiled hose” just wasn’t sinking in. So the WW told him it was “like the cord on a phone handset.”
He gave her the most incredulous look.”PHONES DON’T HAVE CORDS!”
We both started laughing as we realized at age 3, he’s never seen a phone with a cord.
Yay for progress. Where’s my flying car?
