It's November and seems like an appropriate time to express, once again, how grateful I am for my little family. This time I want to acknowledge what a blessing it is to live with funny, witty, and goofy people.
When I married Dave I didn't realize how goofy he actually is. Oh, there were glimpses here and there along the way, but when we had children his true, full-on goofy nature was revealed. Sometimes he is funny on purpose, but other times his goofiness is completely by accident and that makes it even funnier. What a joy it has been to be married to this man for the last 23 years. A good belly laugh at least once a day is almost guaranteed living with this dude.
Fortunately he has passed this goofy, witty trait onto his children. Carson is a bit more likely to share this side of his personality with us, while Katelyn likes to save her humor mostly for her friends. But each of them has, on more than one occasion, provided the family some silly remark that has led to a good chuckle.
My life is so blessed and full because of Dave, Katelyn, and Carson and their zany senses of humor. Some research has shown that living with laughter and happiness keeps you healthier and living longer. I am picturing a long, happy, healthy life for all of us.
Stay tuned for more gratitude posts through this month of November.
