Inside Joke

We sat at the dinner table and watched as Teo closed his hand around another grape, swung his arm backward, and dropped the grape on the floor. Both he and Alleke leaned over and watched the grape roll under the table, and then, again, they errupted into laughter until I thought they might have coughing fits and until they looked exhausted from working so hard, like they had just finished running a 10k. They were forced to stop laughing to catch their breath, and when they were almost ready, Teo picked up another grape, and the comedy started all over again.
Meanwhile, April and I looked at each other from across the table and wondered the same thing.
“What’s so funny?”

Nice anecdote. Seeing your kids share a joke is one of the greatest things.
