Jip Joe

Ellie has the book (thanks to my good friend Kathy) Clifford's ABC. Each page has a letter and then pictures with words that start with that letter. For example (for the slower readers) the first page is A and on the page is an Ant, Axe, Anchor, etc. One night this summer we were in bed reading the book; Ellie would say the letter and then follow with the pictures. When we got to the letter J there was a picture of a jogger on the page but he looks more like he is tip toeing around instead of jogging. Ellie started the page with Jet, Jacks...pause...Jip Joe! She knew she had made the J work for her and we all started laughing. She thought it was so funny (and it was) that Jip Joe became the new standard for that picture.
