LAUGHTER: Convulsive merriment; an expression of mirth peculiar to man, consisting in a peculiar noise and configuration of features, with a shaking of the sides and expulsion of breath. (Webster’s 1828 Dictionary)
All I can hear right now, as my children play in the backyard, is uninhibited laughter. You know, there is really nothing more pleasant than to hear my kiddos’ laughter. I can’t help but laugh with them.
Man is distinguished from all other creatures by the faculty of laughter –Joseph Addison
Laughter is contagious. And, sharing a joyous moment with those whom I love is priceless! It truly is the best medicine for any ailment.
Among those whom I like or admire, I can find no common denominator, but among those whom I love, I can: all of them make me laugh. –W.H. Auden
Who makes you laugh?
I love you because this is so true – you make me laugh
Children laughing is the best sound! But, I’ll always remember the fun we had and all the laughter that was going on! So much fun, Chris – so blessed to call you my friend (and new make-up artist!!).
Needed to read that right now!!! ((((hugs))))
Awwww Love that quote! Laughing keeps me alive most days…

Thank you for being my friend even though I snort when I laugh
I love this post – very cute! I love laughing and when my son cracks up (has really only done it a handful of times) I really love laughing. Now that I am a new mom, the sound of him laughing is truly so cool!
My son will laugh so hard that it seems like he’s going to stop breathing! I love it! It’s contagious.
