Sometimes we get so busy doing life that we forget to take the time to stop and just enjoy each other. One way to create memorable moments is by laughing together - something that I don't cultivate enough with my girls. Often life seems so serious, but laughter lightens the mood and helps us feel better!
Our laughs these days usually come at our own expense, when silly things just happen in the course of a day. Last week, my older daughter and I laughed so hard over a text I spoke into the phone that accidentally came out quite differently than the message I intended to send!
I want to laugh with my girls today. They enjoy jokes, so I'm printing these lunch box jokes to pack with their lunch. If your girls are still little, they may enjoy being tickled or watching a funny video together. Tweens and teenagers are a bit of a tougher crowd, but I'm going to have some other jokes and maybe a funny video or two to share with them after school today.
What makes you laugh?

We're planning for some laughs today, too; I rented the Lego Movie, and I'm sure that my children will be laughing up a storm when we watch it!
ReplyDeleteI want to laugh more, too. I've definitely been too serious & focused on perfection lately.
