Laughter is the Best Medicine
Posted on | November 30, 2009 | 7 Comments |
NOTE: M and I haven’t gone through all the sketch #4 participants. We kind of went on Thanksgiving vacation mode and besides the few cards I did no other crafty or blog related things were done. We will though tomorrow! M has gymnastics tonight, a Christmas tree to finish and a house to decorate.
K, I made this card really quick this afternoon. Jovie had no daycare today and so hubby and I split the stay home duty. Everything but the ribbon and cardstock was from Libby Weifenbach at Sweet Shoppe. I love this set because the paper’s great for hybrid stuff and the kit in general is perfect for one of M’s picture. I’ll be doing a digi page soon. It’s been a while, huh?
Speaking of, laughter IS THE best medicine! Our house is full of it and it’s just fabulous. I remember growing up I use to love watching the Cosby Show. My family is so not like that show. My mom is super fun. She’s funny, open, and loves to do girlie things… like shop. My dad on the other hand is something else. It’s sad because he’s got a kind heart but he’s very hard to get a long with. You never want to anger him (he gets angry at the tiniest thing). If my mom made him mad for example he’d not speak to all of us… can last up to a week! My grandpa was my father figure. It was him that I’d talk to and it was his wisdom that guide me through many of my life’s challenges. After junior high I begged to be sent away to boarding school and I happily left to the U.S. to study after high school. From high school on I had a normal life and a wonderful time. It amazes people that I never got into trouble or experimented with smoking, alcohol, drugs or sex.
So just like how I used my experience with my ex-husband as a stepping stone to know myself better I used my growing up experience to create a happier and healthier environment for my own little family. I want the girls to not be afraid of their parents and laughter is a must – it just cures everything {::SMILES}.
Hope you all have a great one. I need to go put clothes away!

Glad to read that you had a great holiday (catching up on your blog posts of late, as I’ve been away from blogland myself for at least a week it seems!) Oh and I have to update you on the camera I bought – eeek! I pulled the trigger and got one and it ended up not being one of the ones we e-mailed about, but I’m so happy with it!
