Getting and Making Jokes

A few days ago, my wife put up this sign in our kitchen.

This morning, my daughter noticed it.

“I get it!” she said without prompting. “CREEP it real! Like, KEEP it real!”

Later in the day, she wanted to share a joke of her own.

“What did A say to B?”

“I don’t know.”

“C anything LETTERLY? You know, like SEE anything LATELY? Get it?”

Oh, I got it, girl. I was beaming with pride. And laughing. A lot.

Getting the joke on her own? Pretty special. Making her own joke? Priceless.
