Alpha is into trying to tell jokes right now. And Bravo is into copying anything Alpha does. Which makes for some pretty funny meal time conversations.
A-“knock Knock”
Me- “Who’s there?”
B- “Water Alpha!”
A- “No, knock knock”
Matt- “who’s there?”
A-“water”
Matt- “water who?”
B- “water Bravo!”
Me- “Bravo, let your brother tell the joke.”
B- “water Charlie!”
Matt- “not that brother, your other brother.”
A- “water new baby!”
Me-“you can’t water the new baby, it’s in my belly.”
B-“knock knock”
Me- “who’s there?”
B-“water new baby, Alpha, Bravo!”
A- “knock knock”
Matt- “Who’s there” B-(at the same time as Alpha now dividing the conversation at the table
into 2 sets of crazy) “knock knock”
A- “Water” me- “who’s there?”
Matt-”water who?” b- “water Alpha!”
A- “knock knock” me- “that’s a good joke.”
Matt- “who’s there?” B-“knock knock”
A- “Water.” Me- “who’s there?”
Matt- “water who?” B-“blahfgehbackaghwhacthshgjgyusa”
A- “Water banana!” me-“that makes no sense. Eat your fish.”
A- “Mom, how does the joke go?”
B- “knock knock poop!”
Sigh. Everything always comes back to poop.
After about ½ an hour of this same ridiculous conversation in which bravo (while declaring repeatedly that he does not like fish) ate about ¾ of a salmon fillet to himself and Alpha (while declaring repeatedly that he does not like rice and wasn’t hungry) ate very little, and Charlie went between laughing at his crazy brothers and flinging little bits of rice, salmon, and peppers all over the floor, the 2 jokes finally did come out in more or less the right order.
Knock knock
Who’s there?
Water
Water who?
Water you doing???
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 you glad I didn’t say banana?
But at the end of the day it all came back to one joke.
Knock knock.
Poop.
