Thanks Shelli for your comment. There really is nothing like the giggles and laughter of children.

Great post! A day without laughter is a day wasted. There is no sound sweeter to my ears than the sound of my children's laughter. I love to lie in bed first thing in the morning, listening to them giggle together. Like your photo, it always brings a smile to my face!

Yes Laurel...having someone who makes you laugh is so important too. My Joel is like that...when he laughs I can't help but laugh!

Your story of being wedged between the bed and wall made me smile! I can visualize it so well....I did not realize what a physical release laughter is until my friend told me about her way of changing the adrenaline surges. We are really made quite well functioning arent we. Too bad illness tries to change that.

Love the photo of your godson!! So sweet -- definitely made me smile. :) The story about your granddaughter was too cute, too. Kids are the funniest,, and often without even realizing it.

Laughter is definitely essential. I'm lucky that my fiance has a terrific sense of humor, and makes me smile every day. :-)

Thanks for the photo, it did make me smile by the way.

I also like home movie clip shows - what is it about other people's (temporary) misfortune that makes us laugh? I like catastrophic destruction of swimming pool by child on bicycle best.

One time I slipped slowly off my bed and got wedged between the wall and the bed. I had time to squeak 'help' before disappearing completely. I was helpless with laughter and so was my other half. It still makes me chuckle.

It's interesting about the adrenalin surges. Laughter gives us a release doesn't it? I find there's a fine line between laughing and crying, but, as you say, laughter is so much more fun.
