Laughter is the best medicine

A good chuckle, hearty giggle or down right laugh-til-you can't breathe can really turn your day around or keep it going in the right direction.  Do you laugh every day? Seems silly, right?  How hard can it be to laugh everyday? However, when the small stresses of life start to take over, you'd be surprised how little you are laughing.   

Talia (aka 'Doodlebug') has recently learned the art of knock-knock jokes.  I'll admit they don't always make a lot of sense, but to hear her laugh at her own punch line is fantastic!  Here are the latest knock-knock jokes circulating our home:

Knock, Knock.
Who's there?
Sherwood.
Sherwood who?
Sherwood be nice to get a kiss from you!

Knock, Knock.
Who's there?
Banana.
Banana who?
Knock, Knock.
Who's there?
Banana.
Banana who?
Knock, Knock.
Who's there?
Orange.
Orange who?
Orange you glad I didn't say banana?!

Everyday my girls do something that puts a smile on my face and makes me laugh. I am so thankful for them and the opportunity to be at home and cherish the moments that help make the big stuff seem even smaller.
