Be careful what you tell your grandkids.

A few days ago I sat my three year old grandson, Levi, on the kitchen counter and said “I’m going to tell you a joke”. This is what I told him.

“On the first day of school, little Johnny was asked by the teacher what his father did for a living. Johnny said, ‘My dad is a Magician’. The teacher said ‘Oh that’s wonderful. Does he have any good tricks?’ and Johnny said “Oh yes, he saws people in half’. The teacher said, ‘Wow how fun. Do you have any brothers or sisters?’ Johnny said ‘Yes! One half brother and two half sisters’.

Then I told Levi, “I want you to tell your dad that joke when you get home”.Later, the phone rang and it was my son Isaac, Levi’s dad. He said “Levi just told me a joke”. I said “Yeah, I just told him to tell you one. What did he say?” Isaac said, “He said a man asked his son if he knew any good tricks. The son said ‘Yeah, I cut my sister in half with a chain saw!”

I'm glad Levi inherited your sense of humor.
