As I was changing her clothes yesterday, she shivered and said, ‘ooh I’m cold’. Of course, there was only one thing for me to say. Hi Cold, I’m dad. She laughed. A loud and genuine laugh. She then said, ‘That was a good one papi. You haven't told me that joke for a while’.
What she left unsaid were two things. One, I’ve cracked similar jokes before. Two, more importantly, they are funny when not repeated for a long time.
Alas, I don’t think I have much time with my dad jokes still making her laugh, but I’ll take whatever laughs I can get. It reminds of a time when I could laugh as openly.
