Knock Knock!

Several years ago I remember learning a joke from Brad. It goes something like this:

Brad: hey noel! i have a great knock knock joke!

Noel: oh really? let's hear it!

Brad: ok, you start!

Noel: ok, Knock Knock.

Brad: who's there?

Noel: uh... uh... HA! so funny!

Fast forward to yesterday afternoon. After a crazy, stressful,faith-trying, beautiful Sunday of church and a fun afternoon of family bickering,fighting, yelling, togetherness, brad and i had collapsed onto the couch with a sunday movie. The kids were all playing together in their rooms and traveling out to the living room every once and a while to check on mom and dad.

Then SB comes out and tells us that they've prepared a show for us! In a very grown up manner instructed us to one at a time come sit and discuss our options with her. would we like to go to the boy's room for a show, or to her room for drawing? i chose the show and brad chose the drawing... which ended early so everyone could join us for the show. Now, this isn't unusual. SB will usually come up with things on sundays, even when we have people over, and have everyone come to her room for "centers", or a "discussion" or lesson time ect. She is very much a big sister and first born (brad just calls it bossy, but i have NO idea where she gets it from ;)

So there we are, myself and brad sitting just inside the door way, tj and k sitting right in front of us. SB setting up the show as so:

After a few moments of setting up she looks up and asks, are you guys ready?

We say YES with sheer enthusiasm. she then walks to us and says"Enjoy your show!"

and then begins to exit the room, leaving us wondering for just a moment as to what has just happened. Brad and I look at eachother and just lose it! HA! we are laughing so hard that we are BOTH crying and gasping for breath. after a few minutes SB comes back and is confused as to why we are both in hysterics and demands to know what is so funny... which just makes us laugh even more and harder. After we calmed down and discussed what happened we both said that instantly we thought of "THE" knock knock joke from so many years ago..... ahhhhh. such a funny child. brad says she gets her humor from him...

i say, true.
