Knock-Knock Joke of the Day

On the way to a doctor's appointment for Ms. Dimples, the boys were having fun telling knock-knock jokes to each other. They still don't get it - but anyway....after a stretch of silence this came along:

5YO- "Mom, say 'knock-knock' to me"
Me - "Knock-knock"
5YO- "Who's there?"
Me - "The problem is I don't have a knock-knock joke"
5YO- "The problem is I don't have a knock-knock joke, who?"
Me - (hysterical laughing in the van)....

...then again, maybe they DO get it.

It Could Be Worse

Thank goodness this didn't happen here or here.

You Can Lead an Elephant to Water, But You Can't Make it Drink

I heard some banging in the kitchen and when I went to investigate, this is what I found. Ms. Dimples first pointed to the elephant and said, "Dis a fant," and then pointed to the water and said, "dis a wato," and "dis a wato an a fant."

Made in China

As a child I don't remember having any awareness of where my toys came from, as far as country of origin. So it struck me as particularly funny today when our 5 year old (#2 boy) said, "Mom, I think most of our toys were made in China!" and he then proceeded to bring out example, after example that proved his point.
