Daddy Can You Spare Your Phone?

James is a wriggly, lively, active little guy these days. This makes eating out a challenge. We try and have drinks and at least crackers arrive as soon as possible to keep him in his seat. Sometimes he will use crayons and try colouring the kids' paper menus. A couple of times we've resorted to bringing a book or toy to help keep him entertained and focused.

Eventually, though, we are faced with needing to use our ultimate weapon:
Daddy's phone!



James loves phones. What's not to love? There are buttons to push! Sounds you can hear! Screens to discover! Games and apps you can play! We've given up letting him play with my older, flip-open one. He's program several improbably entries into my speed dial list and once I caught him downloading ring tones.
