"Can I please tell you a story?"

Emily frequently offers, "May I please tell you a story?"  All of her stories begin, "Once upon a time," and tend to go on and on, ending, of course, with "then end."  I could listen to her stories all day.

Emily also often offers, "Can I please tell you a joke?"  Based loosely on the old "why did the chicken cross the road joke," Emily's jokes rarely make sense.  Her jokes go something like, "Why did the moon cross the cow?  Because 'Mooooo!'"  Her beaming smile makes each ridiculously nonsensical joke a treat.
