jokes lost in translation

I've been very lucky that my older two girls have inherited my sense of humor, sarcasm, whatever. They get me.

Tonight I realized that Maggie may need a little extra help.

As she was getting into bed she hurt her toe somehow and, of course, said "Ow, I hurt my toe!".
I, being the sarcastic queen of puns that I am, replied "We'd better call the tow truck!".

Maggie looked at me with great big eyes, paused for just a second while she thought it through and couldn't figure it out, and then said kinda quietly "What will it do?"

I had to explain to her that it was a joke. Toe vs. tow, the whole nine yards.
She wasn't pleased.
