Amongst all the serious mumbo jumbo of real life there are just times you gotta let loose, relax, laugh and have some light hearted fun. Did you know that laughing is good medicine? It takes more muscles to frown than to let out a smile !!! It was good fun this week when my daughter and her pal went to our Home School " My Mom Dresses Me Funny " party. They really looked forward to just being wacky for a day !

Or you go to a birthday party and one of the goodies in the goodie bags are some huge cherry wax lips. My kids thought they were hilarious. They even struck a pose with them on. I think they are a bit scary. But, it made me laugh anyway. Look at my sons face. LOL.

Laughing as a family brings the whole household together. I find that we are laughing often around here. Even my dear Mr. Darling makes us all bust at the seams. My daughter thought this was the funniest thing that her daddy was the same height as herself. My husband, the funny guy that he is will laugh uncontrollably out of the blue, even when there isn't anything funny. We all bust up at him...wondering what the heck he is even laughing at.
You know when people have nightmares and they cry in their sleep? My husband doesn't have bad dreams, but many times I have been abruptly awoken by the sounds of laughter... when he is sleeping... Should i wake him? Nah..He's having a good ole' time.

A good, real, unrestrained, hearty laugh is a sort of glorified internal massage, performed rapidly and automatically. It manipulates and revitalizes corners and unexplored crannies of the system that are unresponsive to most other exercise methods. ~Author unknown

I didn't think so.

ReplyDeleteMica, first of all...thank you for your comments. They were very sweet. I am thinking that my post about the salvation message preached at my friend's funeral struck a raw nerve. I will not be ashamed of putting that on my site! Your words were music to my ears. Again, Thank you!
ReplyDeleteNext, what a silly, funny family you have. I LOVE all the pics. I haven't gotten into doing pics yet. I am so busy with homeschooling, writing for ehow, and more. I loved the big, red lips! They were my favorite. You are truly blessed!
Thanks for the giggle Mica! Great photos and quotes. Your children make me smile. :-)
ReplyDeletelaughter is a sign of joy! and YOu have a joy filled family. what a blessing. I am like your husband and will find myself laughing in my dreams. My cousin called me not to long ago to tell me she had dreamt about us. she said we were rolling down a big hill and laughing hysterically! I wish I could have had the same dream, I so would have loved it!! but I do have similiar dreams. (except this morning.. I dreamt I was STEALING something!! how awful, I was so glad to wake up and find it was just a dream!)
ReplyDeleteanyways..I am rambling! Do you think Laughter counts as a "joyful noise"? if it does and I do think it does.. then.. "make a joyful noise unto the lord!" wishing you more laughter for today!
hugs
