After Ryan put Mia to bed this evening and I read some books with Lily, Ryan changed Lily into her pajamas (or "jammas" as she calls them). As a special treat, the three of us climbed into our bed and watched part of American Idol. Lily likes to hear them sing. At one point, I said something, and Lily responded with "that's hilarious!" I don't remember what I said, but I don't think it was funny. Anyway, then Lily started asking us to tell her jokes, so we did and she would laugh; it was great to hear because she has the best laugh. She also tried to tell us jokes, but they made no sense. For instance, she would say "one time, the flowers walked over the tv in front of the mirror!" and then laugh hysterically. She was having fun.
Ryan left the room for a minute, and Lily asked me to tell her another joke, so this is what was said:
M: Knock-knock.
Blank stare from Lily.
M: Do you know what to say after I say 'knock-knock?'
L: No.
M: I say 'knock-knock' and then you say 'who's there?' Okay? Knock-knock.
L: It's Mommy!
Okay, so she doesn't quite get knock-knock jokes yet, but this made us both laugh!
