I am in the kitchen chopping fresh spinach for a recipe. I have guests in the other room and am preparing a lovely dinner for them. My phone rings. It's my mother and before I can explain to her that I have guests, she is telling me something. I continue chopping, looking over at my guests, and smile at Evan who is the only one looking in my direction. We smile at one another as I continue chopping and listening to my mother. Then she puts me on hold because she has had some company arrive. Before I can tell her that I already have company I hear her greeting her guests. I debate whether or not I should hang up and get back to my dinner or I should wait for her to come back to the phone.
