Simply, I LOVE laughter! It enriches my life and my relationships. It's a gift from God. Nothing uplifts my mind and spirit as laughter does. Over the years, I have learned to keep a sense of humor about most things and to laugh. Yes, sometimes I have to laugh so I won't cry. I use humor all the time, which includes the wrong time in some cases. (sorry) A 'professional' told me that I use humor to cope. Well, YES, yes I do. And, it works most of the time too. :)

I honestly think the humor and laughing has made all the difference in Super Dave's and my marriage. We laugh at the same things and each other. Just last night, I was laughing to myself as I was trying to go to sleep. Super Dave guessed correctly what I was laughing about...a funny part of a dumb movie. We can complete each other's sentences, especially when it's a quote from a song, movie or tv. :)

There's nothing like listening to my kids laugh, making them laugh (love to be "tickle monster") and laughing with them. I hope they will always keep a sense of humor and have fun.

And, I'm blessed with some great friends that I laugh with A LOT. How fun to laugh until you hurt! A couple of you have the same, sick sense of humor as I do, and this would be one reason you are my best buds. :)

My favorite is to laugh so hard that I start crying. Fortunately for me, that's pretty often. Twice in the past week. Last one was while I was watching Super Dave DANCE with Sissy, playing *Just Dance 2 on the Wii. HY.STER.I.CAL! Just today, I left a voicemail for SD of a funny clip from a movie and laughed hysterically afterward. JT joined me.

So, don't forget to laugh. Don't take things too seriously. Love life.
