"Mommy"-infinity

A: "Mommy...mommy?...mommy...MOMMY?...MOMMMMYYY"
Me: (Ignoring)
A: "Mommy...mommy...mommy!?...MOOOOOMMMMYYY"
Me: "Av, you see that I am on the phone and you are being very rude!"
A: "I not rude."
(Pause----Wait for it. Wait for it. Ahhhh...a WHOLE 10 seconds of precious, precious, rare-almost-extinct, silence-which almost makes me dance in the streets naked with excitement...Almost.)
A: "Mommy...mommy!...mommy? Mommy?"
Me: (Ignoring)
A: "Mommy."
Me: "AV! Did you hear what I said!?"
A: "Yes."
Me: "Well, you must not have. Put your listening ears on. Mommy is on the phone!"
A: "Hey, mommy...Mommy!?...mommy?...mommy...
Me: (Furious, gritting teeth, ignoring)
A: "Mommy...mommy..."
Me: "Av. You are being rude. Wait your turn and I will be off the phone in a minute. Do NOT say one more word! It is NOT your turn."
A: (Processing)
A: "Mommy."
Me: "WWWWWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAATTTT? WHAT is it Av?"
A: "You on da phone, Mommy??"

May God grant me patience today, or a valum for every time I blink.
Amen.
