SlackSATURDAY - Funnybone: Elbows Off the Table

Evie says you had to be there for this one, but we shall give it a go...

We used to eat out a lot at our favorite Puerto Rican restuarant.  I have a rule against elbows being on the table.  I look over to see my middle daughter, LaLa, with an elbow on the table.   "Ahem. Elbow," I admonish.  Without hesitation, she replies, "He oh".  Split second of silence, then we all bust a gut. The restaurant is called El Bohio. Get it?  Elbow. He oh.  Yeh, she's a funny one.

I can't wait for you to hear Tell TUESDAY's guest blogger, my sister.  She will be telling her own family's story.  Her words.  Her voice.  No more silence.  No more shame.

Do *you* have a story to share?
