Laughter Lives Tuesday

Laughter LivesThis post is part of "Laughter Lives! Tuesday" on the Riggs Family Blog. Check our their blog to read everyone else's "Laughter Lives!" posts.

Here is a laugh for you and a AAAAAWWWWW for today on Laughter Lives Tuesday:

One afternoon after work I went to pick up Mary Beth from school. I was putting her in her carseat when this conversation happened.

Mary Beth: Mommy can I have Ronald McDonald food tonight? (Notice she does not call it McDonald's or Mickey D's like most children)

Me: No baby not tonight we were going home and we were going to cook supper.

Mary Beth: Please can I have Ronald McDonald food?

Me: No we are not having Ronald McDonald food we are going home and cook and you can help me cook.

Mary Beth: Much louder voice: PLEASE CAN I HAVE RONALD McDONALD FOOD?

Me: No baby we can not! Mommy doesn't have the money to go to McDonald's - we will have to go home and cook.

At this point I am closing the back door of the SUV and opening the front door to get in and.....

Mary Beth: Mommy why do you go to work to make money if you don't have any money to get Ronald McDonald food?

Boy did I feel about an inch tall at that moment and yes I went into explain the whole situation to her about paying bills, buying food, shoes, clothes and having a roof over her head.

That is our little funny so now it is your turn. Make someone laugh today!

Music

I have added some of our favorite music to our blog. Therefore, turn your speakers on if you can and listen to some great music. Mary Beth must have music because she loves to sing and dance.

Laughter Lives Tuesday

OK, I have shared this with some of you, but not all of you. This is something that we got a huge laugh about and I want to share it on Laughter Lives Tuesday! Thanks Brent for starting this!

OK, so here is our little laugh :))))

A few months ago Charles and Mary Beth were up and letting Mommy sleep late. They were sitting at the kitchen table eating breakfast and just all of a sudden Mary Beth lays her little head over on her Daddy's shoulder and says "Daddy I love you with all my heart, but you are still a stinky ole boy".

She got "stinky ole boy" from us because at one time she was bad about going up to this one little boy at school and trying to give him a kiss goodbye. We told her that if she kept kissing on that stinky ole boy that her lips were going to fall off one day.

Of course us telling her has not stopped her from being her sweet and loving self - she still wants to give hugs and kisses every afternoon when we pick her up from school.

GOD LOVE HER - SHE IS JUST GREAT!
