Knock Knock

I've been sitting on my computer listening to "Little Potato" and "My Story" and thinking about putting together a family photo slide show to music (inspired by April's blog). Anyway . . . while I've been waiting for my girls to sleep, I've been looking at and organizing pictures and feeling so grateful for my family and for what I have right here and now. This has been accentuated by listening to Gracie telling Rachel knock knock jokes. You probably didn't know that a barely 2 year old could do that, but Gracie can. Her favorite is: "knock knock: Who's there? Bus. Bus who? A ba ba ba bus." Pretty good huh? She made it up herself. Rachel (5) has been trying to teach her a new one, you might have heard it, about the interupting cow (which actually Rachel can't quite tell the right way yet--when does humor come though?) so now Gracie says: Knock knock. who's there? Bus. Bus who? Moooo. If Rachel ignores her she yells out to me KNOCK KNOCK MOMMY! This all brings me to the realization that I love the ages of my girls and I love knock knock jokes and all that they bring with them.
