parent phone calls

I spent almost an hour phoning parents today. Only one hung up on me. My favorite call was at the end, when I decided to call a parent or two because I actually had something good to say. This boy's father answered the phone, quickly put down the receiver when he realized I didn't speak Spanish, and--I swear to god--I heard a rooster crowing. "And why not?" said my husband when I told him later.
