L tells jokes that I don’t get. I must have a terrible sense of humor, because I just know that L is gifted…
L in the car today:
“I know a funny joke. It’s bilarious [sic]. There once was a yellow tree in my woods. And a house. Which was yellow. And some red leaves. Is it funny yet?”
Me: “Not yet.”
“OK, and there was a chicken on the road that was crossing the street. I don’t know why it was crossing. Nobody knows why. It’s funny because of the yellow tree, Mommy.”

L told me a joke tonight at bedtime. I’m not sure I get it:
Why didn’t the donkey eat his dinner?
Because he was busy grabbing it and smashing it into his face. Haha! No, his butt! Hahahahaha!
I've learned that motherhood is a series of shocks and disappointments, disgusting things under my fingernails, horrifying smells and constant irritation. There’s all the joy too, but that’s the stuff you’ve already heard about. Here’s the stuff that you might not hear about.
I'm the mom who makes you feel better about your parenting.
Motherhood, WTF?
