Knock Knock.....

Who's there? Banana. Banana Who? Knock Knock...... (at which point I am cursing my husband for teaching my 5 year old ANY "Knock Knock" jokes, but especially the one that never ends.) Jake is totally enthralled with the idea of jokes. He tries to make up his own, and shares them while laughing hysterically. The jokes have no punch line whatsoever, yet we find ourselves laughing right along with him, wiping tears out of our eyes at the sheer creativity. Until today- I can't take any more banana jokes. I'm just waiting to hear "Orange you glad I didn't say banana" ?, but it just NEVER comes. The drive to Trey's school this morning seemed to last an eternity (well, I guess it did, in fact. We had rainy, wet roads, and there were accidents all over).

I still don't understand that. We live in a place, where it rains almost every day (it seems) in the Winter. How is it that drivers here STILL struggle in the rain? I would think they would struggle more if the sun magically came out. Accidents everywhere from all the drivers scrambling to dig out sunglasses that have been put away/hidden since September. Anyway, I digress.

I'm glad my son has gotten to a point where he is able to tell jokes and be very understandable. It is just time to expand his material. I think I'm going to go online, and look up "Jokes for Kids" and see what pops up. If I discover a good one, I'll let you all know :)
