WANT TO HEAR A JOKE ABOUT CONSTRUCTION? I'M STILL WORKING ON IT!
And that's no problem. We don't have to get everything right on the first try, although I bet that can be frustrating. Do you feel frustrated right now? I do. Let's take a deep breath and count to 10, and then you can help me finish my construction joke. It's going to be hilarious.
What are the strongest days of the week? Saturday and Sunday. The rest are weekdays!

What do you call it when a snowman throws a tantrum? A meltdown!
Wow, that snowman has some big feelings. I wonder why he acted that way. I bet he feels sad that spring is coming and that he will soon cease to exist. I sure would be.
