from an email sent to a cousin....
Last week you mentioned [her son, who shares his name with our Lil'S] saying his first knock-knock joke. We had a funny coincidence. Our [Lil'S] has an expressed language delay, but his "word of the week", starting a few days before you emailed just happened to be "nah-nah!" (knock-knock). His new game was knocking on doors and saying, "nah-nah!"
Well, on Wednesday, [H] happened to tell some not-quite-funny knock-knock jokes when sitting bored in the car while I was nursing [N] after a visit to the library, so I pulled out a couple real ones, and we had a bit of silly time together. The next day, when [Lil'S] pointed out pictures of cars (blows raspberries: "b-b-b") or trains ("oo-oo!") in his books, he'd say, "b-b-b-b! nah-nah! b-b-b-b!" or "oo-oo! nah-nah! oo-oo!" I couldn't figure out what he was trying to tell me for a couple days, but then it finally hit me: it was our [Lil'S's] turn for his first knock-knock jokes! Lol! After he said "nah-nah", I answered, "who's there?" and he exclaimed, "BBBB!" thrilled that I finally got it. ;) I replied back to him, "Knock-knock!" and he answered something resembling "who's there?" and I said, "Train!" and we just laughed and laughed!
