Oops!

The other day I let Jane play with my old cell phone, trying to keep her out of my mess. Jane was playing behind the curtain. I heard someone saying "hello," and thought Jane must have gotten hold of the regular phone and called someone.

When I pulled the curtain back, I realized she was talking on my old cell phone. I didn't think that was possible since there was no SIM card in it! When I picked it up, it said "EMERGENCY" I then realized she had called 911. I hurried to let the operator know there was no real emergency, and that I hadn't realized that you could still call 911 without a SIM card. Needless to say I was very embarassed, and won't be letting any cell phones be used as toys again!

So just in case some of you might also be less tech savvy, cell phones with a working battery and no SIM card can still call 911.

Here's a picture of our little trouble-maker (and Olivia). Jane came out wearing this "hat" (it's really her panties for a dress!).
