Ironically, I have no pictures for today’s post. I was too busy listening.
I was sitting in bed working on getting a few reviews done when the laughing began. Giggles and squeals. I love the sound of children’s laughter. It so joyful, so pure. It’s contagious.
Munchkin was working on her math, and she saw me smile. She asked me what I was smiling about. I told her to listen. She grinned and peeked outside. Jump, jump, giggle, whop, flop, giggle, tumble, jumple, giggle…
Who was the source of the laughter? Where was it coming from? The source was two littles from the house next door. They were bouncing on Munchkin’s trampoline. (We put the trampoline up between our houses, so they would be able to use it whenever they want.)
Munchkin and I began to smile and then laugh as we listen to the laughter coming from outside. Laughter has a way of changing your mood and making you feel better. I am grateful for the laughter of children that lightens the mood.
