Anonymous,

I am a very happy person by nature. I love to laugh...the more often the better. Sometimes it gets me in trouble, because I have been guilty of laughing at inappropriate times. (Ask my husband.)

Seriously, being able to find "the funny" in the everyday is what has enabled me to continue to care for my grandmother and other family members. Especially during difficult times. Sometimes life is hard, but God and laughter help me hurdle over "life's bumps" with ease.

Thanks for your continued support.

"Our mouths are filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy...The Lord has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy." Psalm 126:2-3

Things That Go Bump in the Night

Last night as I helped Muddear get ready for bed, the kids were doing the same. Mariah loves to keep her door closed at all times of the day and night...typical teenager. Of course this means that her door is constantly being opened and closed.

Nevertheless, as Muddear is getting in the bed and Mariah is exiting her room for the 50th time, the hinge on the door squeaks. Immediately, Muddear looks up and says...

"Did you hear that? I think a bird is in the house!"

Mariah could not help but laugh and before I knew it, I was laughing too.
