Maybe an Avocado

I held a banana up to my ear in front of T Junior, who was waiting quietly in his high chair for a snack.

"Ring, ring!" I chuckled. "That's silly!"

I got nothing. No reaction. Just a blank stare. Blink.

He just doesn't get it yet, I thought, and I sat down in defeat to cut up the classic phone-shaped fruit. But then, as I was making T Junior-size bites, it hit me like ... *ahem* a ton of bunches.

He will never get it. I don't even think they make phones that look like that anymore. I can hardly come up with a good equivalent fruit for my cell.

If you think of a good one, call me on my avocado.

Does this mean that he'll never get this?
