Oh my goodness! I laughed and laughed and laughed. My dh had to keep turning up the television to hear his program over my laughing right out loud! This author is HILARIOUS! She makes real life incidents so extremely funny! She is a mom of four normally rambunctious children. (They sound a lot like mine, and she, sounds a little like me.) Oh, the book? I guess that would be nice to know, eh?

I have been learning about laughing at myself and at the things my kids do. Spilled milk. Dripping water. Poop in the bathtub. An extra 3 loads of laundry coming from their rooms just when I'd caught up. These things used to make me so very angry. And I was no fun to live with.

Lucy Adams (and other authors) is teaching me to laugh. Laughing makes life more fun, makes the children more relaxed, makes Mama a little more fun to be around. My dh has been trying to teach me this too. And I am so very thankful.

Some of my favorite stories include: Tough Love (because it sounds free-range), A Day At The Park (because I get those looks), Burning The Midnight Oil (because that was me last night!) and A Pig That Good (because it's just silly).

The book is a collection of stories written by Lucy Adams who is a very busy person from the description on the back of the book.

Lucy Adams is a syndicated humor columnist, wife, and mother of four children. She also writes a popular blog and teaches second grade. In her spare time, she breathes and washes clothes. Learn more about Lucy at http://www.ifmama.com

At that website, you can buy the book, read her blog, find out more about her and have a good laugh!
