Mabel: ‘Brrring! Brrrring! Hello, Mama?’

I answer my Banana phone.

Alice: ‘Hello, Mama speaking. Hi, Mae! What are you doing?’

Mabel: ‘Shopping and crying! And I am making my toy dog into an aeroplane – he’s a robot! I gotta go! I love you so much! Bye! Beep, beep, beep!’

Shopping and crying? We’ve all been there, sister. (Even though we’ve been home all morning…)
