One day Little Johnny heard a noise and peeked into his parent’s room to
check it out.

He opened the door to see his mom bent over the dresser and dad going at
it behind her. Johnny's dad saw him and gave him a little wink as Johnny
closed the door.

After business was finished Dad went to check on little Johnny. He opened
his bedroom door to find Grandma bent over the dresser and little Johnny
going at it behind her.

Dad yelled, "Johnny, what the hell are you doing?!"

Little Johnny replied, "It's not so funny when it’s your mom is it?
