“Colin!” Mac exclaimed as she dried her hands on the dish towel. “Didn’t Mommy tell you not to play with your spaghetti? Spaghetti goes in your tummy,” she paused and looked at her son, “not in your hair.”
Colin shrugged. “My hair yummy! Like basketti!” He took the almost full pasta pull and dumped it on his head.
“Oh, no! That was a no-no!” Mac walked over to her son’s highchair. “Talk about terrible threes rather than the terrible twos,” she mumbled under her breath.
“Momma, can I have juice, peez?” Emma asked from her seat.
Mac lifted Colin out of his seat and held him safely at arms length. “In a minute, sweetie, I have to clean your brother up first.” Mac looked down and noticed she now had sauce all over her fairly new white top. Rule number one, she remembered; never wear white on pasta night.
The telephone rang just as Mac began to exit the kitchen. “Now my head is pounding!” she exclaimed. Someone has terrible timing, Mac thought as she reached for the phone. “Hello.”
"Hello, Mrs. Rabb," came the voice on the other end.
Mac smiled. At the sound of her husband’s voice, all of the day’s troubles melted away. “You leave without a word – no message, no number.”
"I thought you forgave me, Mac. Duty called."
She laughed. “I know. I was just having a little fun. How are you?” she asked while putting Colin back into his highchair.
"I miss you and the kids."
