Tonight, as we were checking out of Wal-Mart, something happened that I thought was funny and I could not stop laughing. The lady checking us out thought my laughter was funny so she started laughing. When I went to get my grocery bag she gave me a quick one arm hug. Why would a complete stranger give me a hug? Laughter Bonds!
Last month at Mom's night I talked and laughed with a few ladies and now I consider them friends. New friends but who knows we may become old friends. The good kind.
Anyways, final thought. What a witnessing tool. LAUGHTER!

You inspire me!
Sometimes as we (I) get older, laughter doesn't come as often as it should. It's good to know that young people (and love) still make the world go around. These are the "good" times; you will look back and remember them with fondness.
So often, I think of times when your mom, Charles, Edward and I were kids; we had so much fun growing up and that's something you NEVER forget. Your kids won't remember what kind of china you had or the kind of silver ware you used, but they will remember the fun times they had as children.
Thanks for being such a great mom!
I love you,
Linda
Well said, Lynda! I love this kind of story. Laughter always makes things better. The world needs people who love to show the JOY of the Lord through LAUGHTER!
Sis. Seymour, when you can make someone laugh just from seeing others laugh - that is the joy of the Lord. Fresh and full of life. Keep up the good work - or is it play. Glad to have you on board.
Linda, as your momm I am so proud of you and I love to hear you laugh. If you remember when you were in the four grade something happened at school where your friends weren't getting along and you helped them to be friends again and your teacher told you that you had a gift of love. That is what it takes to win people to the Lord. LOVE is a what people are looking for.
I love you
Mom

This is the link you need to go to. Click on woman's health, or CHIP for the other. As you know, there are kids on CHIP who are pregnant; so if you see the phrase "cannot be on CHIP", that's what it's referring to. It also has the eligibility link.
Is Misty that commented on your blog our Misty?
I enjoyed talking to you tonight.
Love ya,
Linda
Thank you so much for the link.
Misty is one of my friends from Life Tab, but you should tell our Misty. She might enjoy blogging.
