A Touch of Humor

"A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance."
-Proverbs 15:13



We need to have a little HUMOR in our lives. We better take seriously that which should be taken seriously, but at the same time we can bring in a little humor now and again.

"If the time ever comes when we can't smile at ourselves, it will be a sad time."
In my upbringing, there was a lot of humor and A LOT of laughter. Especially when we got together with cousins and aunts (I think it was mostly a female thing).
Some may think it's too loud....but that's just the thing....we can't quite get the dial right. To you, it might be loud. To us, it's a normal noise level.


Either way, I always enjoy being with my family because there is always laughter.
And I mean LAUGHTER!

Word: Pulley laugh

Definition: A laugh loud enough to be heard 50 feet away.

Root: "Pulley", my mother's maiden name.



Word: Towers laugh

Definition: A semi-loud laugh, but intense enough that tears form.

Root: "Towers", my maiden name

Laughter, especially that kind, is the best! I think it's a female thing too, but Justin and I had a good one going while we played games. lol

LOL! Ha ha ha! Sometimes, a female thing, but you must not have been around your dad and Uncle Michel when they are hysterically laughing, loudly, and Bobonne...she usually starts it.
My wall plaques remind me to laugh: IN all living, have much fun and laughter...G.B.Hinckley, another: Live Simply-Laugh Often-Love Deeply
