Edith was in the kitchen fixing lunch when the phone rang. While humming a soft melody she placed the knife down and grabbed the wall phone. “Hello, this is Edith.” A voice ran out the phone. It was her sister, she would call around lunch every day, and Edith hated it her sister knew how many children she had to feed. While she had her back turned she did not see her sweet little girl Elizabeth run in and take some cookies. “Yes, I understand all this but I really must go I have so much to do. I love you. Bye.” 
After hanging up the phone, Edith started up her melody again, and picked up the knife an began chopping the carrots.
