Oh! Oh! Ah! Ah!

Aisha and Kyle thought they could get away from old Grammy without incident, but then Grammy turned to little Noah and asked, "do you want a puppy?"

Noah, who had been playing with Grammy's puppies, jumped up and squealed, "Mom, can we? Please?"

"We'll think about it..."

"They can play with the monkeys!"

"Monkeys?" Aisha glanced at Kyle who shrugged, confused. "Sweetie, we don't have any monkeys."

Noah stomped his foot. "Yes we do!" he cried. "They're in your room and they sound like Daddy!"

Noah got a puppy that Christmas.
