Our little comedian

Kate has recently discovered her inner jokester and she's really letting her out. She's been doing a lot of extremely forced sounding laughing at things lately and then proclaiming "Kate thinks that's funny." The jokes she creates herself are the best and are hilarious because they are so NOT funny. Of course, she doesn't really get what a joke IS so, for awhile now, her jokes consist of saying something she knows isn't true and then laughing hysterically at the mere thought. A few months ago, she started out with things like "the sky is red," but they're becoming more sophisticated of late. Her favorites currently are to say "I have three mommies (or daddies)" or "daddy likes to take baths" (he doesn't) and so on. She was quite proud of herself the other day when, waiting for Grandma Connie to arrive in the red car she usually drives, Kate stated, "Grandma Connie drives a truck...." (laughter ensues and then--wait for it because this is the big punchline)"...with Aunt Cyndi!" This creation nearly sent her over the edge. She was belly laughing at her creativity which, naturally, made me laugh. Which is probably why she thinks all these jokes are funny--and, really, they kind of are. :)
