For as long as I can remember, I have had the uncanny ability to crack myself up. And for as long as I can remember, I have never held back my other uncanny ability to laugh. I love to find the humor in things, even if I am the only one who can see it.
This is a trait that I have often wondered if I would be so blessed as to see it passed on to any of my children. Occasionally I will see a glimpse here and there that makes me smile ( while undoubtedly laughing at the same time) but, with my girl, Dylann, I have noticed more than just a glimpse. I see a full outright reflection. The witty comments, physical comedy, laughter at life.....it is there. While it may not be something that the rest of the world always "gets', I do, and it really is life's best medicine.
(Exhibit A - Dylann had to empty out her gym locker today. She made sure to lock the plastic grocery bag tight to deter thieves.)
