Yesterday morning it was pouring rain. Weighty, fat drops were falling from the sky (needless to say, my hair was not straightened and very frizzy). My umbrella was, of course, in the car.

Me: We're going to have to make a run for it.

Levi: Got it! (he safely entered the vehicle)

Me: Ok, Cora, let's go!

I ran to the car, opened her door and hopped in the front seat.

Cora: Waaaaaahhhhh!

She was motionless in front of the car. I got out, hoisted her sopping wet body into her seat and shut the door.

Cora: I'm soaked!

Me: Well, you were just standing in the rain!

Cora: I wasn't just standing; I was crying too!

Cora: Why did the spider move?

Me: I don't know.

Cora: Because he wanted a new website.

Me: hysterical laughter.

This joke is not funny. But I couldn't help but laugh at the fact that Cora actually executed a joke. It took me completely by surprise, and I loved it. Bolstered by the melodic tinkling of bells that is my laughter, she tried again.

Cora: What do tigers eat?

Me: I don't know, what?

Cora: People.

This joke is incredibly funny. I almost had to pull over, I was laughing so hard. Tears were forming in the corners of my eyes. And she came up with this one on her own. Classic.

Cora: What do I get when I pitch a fit?

Me: A spanking.

Levi: That is not funny.

My two favorite comedians.
