So I just hold the phone away from my ear and pop out a couple "uh huhs" and "yeahs" just for good measure.
Guilty as charged! I've done that too. Then I just quit answering calls, let them all go to voice mail and then answered them with texts or emails. Now I've got all communications down to email only. (Although, thank goodness, my kids were much older than yours, so there was less need for daily communication).
I can't wait to see how he spins out once you actually start dating.
