I think one of the most amazing things about being a mom is making our children laugh. It can turn my horrible day around in that one little giggle. It can bring me to tears to see how happy I can make my kids. I live and die to make them smile and laugh. I have moments when I feel like I am about to crack and one of the boys will give out a big ole' laugh and all that frustration and stress just melts away.
Tristen can be pushing my every button and when I am about to blow he looks up and will smile or laugh and as much as I want to fight it and stay mad I cannot help but laugh along with him.
As I look back at my life laughter has gotten me through almost everything. During Elementary school I used to get teased endlessly and instead of hiding I would laugh along with them. Eventually those kids gave up and moved on to someone else. Come Jr. High I found people who appreciated my humor and most of which I am still really close to. I also married my Jr. High boyfriend, but that is a whole different story. In High School my humor is what I think people remember me for, good and bad. I was able to laugh at myself when I attempted to play basketball and continued to play all 4 years because I enjoyed it and without being able to laugh at my mistakes I doubt I would have continued.
To this day when something gets too sad, too uncomfortable or when I am trying to cheer someone up I turn to humor. The power of laughter is just amazing. So I will leave you with a few of my favorite jokes. All are clean and I have learned all of them from kids. They maybe dumb but I challenge you not to laugh or at least smile at them :)
