I'm glad that I learned early on in motherhood that sometimes you just need to laugh. Life's moments can be so frustrating, but once you get through them, they really are just plain old funny, especially when it comes to parenting. Here are a couple examples from recently.
-Yesterday Jacob threw a huge tantrum because I wouldn't let him stand on the escalators at the furniture store. You know, because it is so safe letting a 22 month old make his way down an escalator by himself.
-6:30pm, sitting at dinner table for a nice peaceful dinner, mom and dad excited about eating some yummy steak fajita's (fajita meat from a bag from costco), kids "said" they were happy with chicken nuggets... This dinner turned into one big nightmare for all. The steak was HORRIBLE, we had had this meat before and it was so good, so we were stuck with nothing else to eat and Jacob didn't want anything to do with his food and Tyler was complaining and crying that the nuggets were too small pick up. It was a disaster- I just started laughing right there because it was just funny. (Jack didn't seem to feel the same way though)
I'm positive there are many other examples, but I just can't think of them at the moment. I'm glad I know laughing is important. If you don't laugh you'll cry, and laughing is just a lot more fun.
