Day 22

I'm grateful for laughter.
Here are a couple of those laughter filled moments:

Cooper looked at a picture of himself when he was 5 months old. He turned to me and with a very big sigh said, "I sure miss being a little baby 'cuz I getted anything I wanted back then." I couldn't help but laugh because now at five and being the baby of the family, he leads a very rough life and never gets anything at all.

And this one still makes me laugh when I get the visual in my head. It just might be one of those 'you had to have been there' moments but none the less, I'm sharing it.
Brent has recently lost 25 pounds. He looks great and I'm jealous. Working around the house one Saturday we were putting away some holiday decorations. Brent was putting the boxes back onto a high shelf in the garage. With the large box lifted high over his head and reaching for the shelf on the ends of his toes, his pants fell to the ground. Yes - fell straight to the ground and I just stood there for a minute. I was taken by surprise. I mentioned the garage door was wide open then I busted up laughing. Then I said "I'm so blogging about this." He couldn't drop the box and grab his pants so he heaved the box onto the shelf and then he took care of the dropped pants. He was a great sport, laughed along with me and indulged me the rest of the day when I'd suddenly start giggling long after the incident occurred.

Laughter feels great - especially when it's shared with your family!

That is so so funny. Aren't they so much fun when they can laugh at themselves?

I wouldn't care if all my clothes fell straight off if it meant I lost 25lbs. That is a pretty funny story though. What a good sport.
