Now that would be embarrassing, although maybe they are polite enough not to say anything. Anyway, I haven't had that embarrassing experience yet, but my daughter (Red) has. We are to silence our cell phones before entering the sanctuary at church, and she is the church secretary! ;o))Mary Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08077077785157768787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31402520.post-35753837961679481522008-08-28T09:50:00.000-04:002008-08-28T09:50:00.000-04:00I used to serve as a eucharistic minister at churc...I used to serve as a eucharistic minister at church. My biggest nightmare was that my phone might ring in my purse while I was serving communion. I probably checked it ten times before communion to make certain it was off.<BR/><BR/>Very funny story.NCmountainwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00615765649828716560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31402520.post-56047089945108572742008-08-28T08:35:00.000-04:002008-08-28T08:35:00.000-04:00Now you think this lesson would make you a more fo...Now you think this lesson would make you a more forgiving teacher :)<BR/><BR/>I don't understand the fascination of cell phones.

Obviously, HEARING it doesn't help if I don't know it's mine!KGMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05165941950953938943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31402520.post-43764420956451855472008-08-27T12:35:00.000-04:002008-08-27T12:35:00.000-04:00That's a great story!

I had a problem with 5th graders texting other 5th graders in another class last year. Sigh. We had a big ol' todo about it and then a couple of days later, my phone went off in class. I think the funniest part was that the kids couldn't believe I didn't answer my phone. That's how entrenched they are in our kids' lives.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31402520.post-90950314445532141662008-08-26T20:32:00.000-04:002008-08-26T20:32:00.000-04:00lol!
