HeyTell and Joel

At 7:30 this morning Joel asks to send a HeyTell message to Paul who is on his way to work. I agree and Joel grabs the phone. With HeyTell (an iPhone application) as soon as it's opened there is a big orange button with a selected name above it, as soon as you hold down the button whatever is said will automatically send when the button is released. So, as Joel grasps the phone and presses the HeyTell application button I whisper (Izaac was asleep) "Now, when it opens DON'T press the orange button." Joel now gets his I'm-gonna-do-this-my-way look and clenches the phone, waiting to jab the orange button when it appears. I try to pry the phone away and whisper louder "Don't press the button!". Soaring through my mind is the fact that it's 7:30 in the morning and I don't want to be that person who wakes someone up with a pointless message and as I'm struggling to pry the phone away he presses the button when I hiss "Don't PRESS it!". To my dismay, it sends the message and my friend receives a message from me at 7:30 in the morning sounding like a freaky person in a halloween costume: Don't PRESS it! I learned two valuable things this morning. #1 stay in control of the phone when the four year old wants to send a heytell message and #2 if it is in the four year olds possession, don't talk until the phone is safely removed.
