Since it can sometimes be awkward to tell stories involving four people without using names, I've decided to give my kids blog pseudonyms. From here on out, I shall refer to them in this way:
Larry: 6-year-old boy
Moe: 4-year-old boy
Curly: 2-year-old girl
And now, I wanted to share with you a conversation from a recent journey the four of us took in the car:
Larry: Hey, Mom. Knock knock.
Me: Who's there?
Larry: Banana.
Me: Banana who?
Larry: Knock knock.

Me: Oh, I get it.
Larry: And the frog was chasing the chicken! You know, the chicken that crossed the road.

Moe: Banana.

* Troodons were small, meat-eating dinosaurs

LOL. I can't believe the patience you have. Seriously. Even typing it all out would've tried my nerves! I was literally L'ingOL.
WOW!!! We had the same conversation a few weeks ago on a LONG 45 minute car ride to Boulder....no offense, but I am sooo glad that I am not the only sufferer of such conversations! I guess we can be thankful that "poop" wasn't in the punchline.
