A few weeks ago we had a power outage in the middle of the night.  I woke up when I heard Ben crying and making his way down the stairs.  After stubbing my toes a few times I met him at the bottom of the stairs and carried him over to our bed.  Curious as to what time it was, I made my way to the kitchen and found my cell phone in the basket where I keep my keys.  When I flipped it open I was blinded by the light on the display.  That was when inspiration it…my cell phone makes a good flashlight!  I used it to find my way back to bed, hitting a button whenever the screen dimmed.

Next time your lights go out, instead of fishing blindly in the junk drawer for your flashlight, grab your cell phone.  It will provide a nice combination of light, time, and, of course, a phone.
