For The Love Of Laughing
Sometimes it can be painfully obvious to myself that I might be a little too serious.
Last night Anna I and climbed onto her bed to read some of her new library books.
The first one she picked out is called Walter The Farting Dog.
Okay, ha, ha. Sounds funny and silly and perfect for my three-year-old who loves nothing more than saying any number of phrases related to poop.
I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard.
And I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard with her.
And I know she liked that because I could see the surprise and delight on her face at seeing my laughing so effortlessly.
I bet we'll read it again tonight.
Delightful!

One of the favorite books for my kiddos-many a year ago! Nothing like a child's laughter to lighten your soul!

It's a wonderful book, & in my family, made even better because there is a Walter, the dog, perhaps with a little bit of you know what!

We have a few Walter books and just love them too. Grandma was nice enough to buy our girls a little stuffed Walter that makes amazingly realistic fart noises so now he's kept close by for sound effects when we read. Really ups the level of laughter!
The plush Walter the Farting Dog is a great addition to the books!

I'll have to get this from the library. Living with 3 small boys, I'm sure this book would be a hit. And we can all use more laughter in our life.. :)

I love times like that with my kids! So I have to recommend one of our favorite books. Parts by Tedd Arnold. Very cute and funny. And if you like that one, he has a second one called More Parts.
We LOVE those too!!!

After reading your blogpost I went looking for that book in the Netherlands and I found it. I Ordered it online and hope it gets here very soon. I have a four year old who laughs and giggles everytime he hears about "poop".

It is a fun set of books!!!! If you search on every page you can find a tiny spider... He adds a bit more fun to the book... Happy Reading!!!!

I have 2 boys and this subject brings on neverending laughter in our home. Their father isn't much help. I just try to roll with it and let them see me laugh too and those have been the best memories.
My 7-year-old is loving the humor of Junie B. Jones right now and the belly laugh is something I wish I could bottle up and keep forever!
Jonda - You have doomed yourself. You will be rolling with laughter or rolling your eyes while groaning for years and years to come.
I have a husband, a 25 yr old daughter, and twin 19 yr old sons. I really really missed my daughter while she was in college. I was me and ----THEM---- Shiver. Shudder.
Just you wait. Blazing Saddles. Beans + campfire scene. Nuf said. sigh.
