Knock Knock

So, it was over 2 years ago that Justin learned his first Knock Knock joke.

It was May 3, 2005. Grammy and Grampy were driving Justin and Emily down to St Peter's hospital to see me and to meet baby Sarah. During that ride, Emily taught the then 22 month old Justin his first Knock Knock joke.


Knock Knock

Who's there?

Flowerpot!


Yup. Justin and Emily laughed and laughed and laughed. So at the hospital, Justin told this great new joke to Mick and myself. And he continued to do so for 2 years now.


Well, mark today as a new day! I have been working on teaching Justin the Banana-Orange Knock Knock joke. It's been a rough rode that usually goes something like this:


Knock Knock

Who's there?

Banana ya glad I didn't say orange


Oh my....


So, I was shocked when it all came out right this morning:


Knock Knock

Who's there?

Banana

Banana Who?

Knock Knock

Who's there?

Banana

Banana Who?

Knock Knock

Who's there?

Orange

Orange Who?

Orange ya glad I didn't say Banana!


I wanted to jump up and down. I was so proud!


So a minute later I was brought back to earth by:


Knock Knock

Who's there?

Banana ya glad I didn't say orange!


LMAO


But - later tonight Mick was all excited to tell me that Justin said it right to him!! Yeah. You go Justin!!!
