Happy Thanksgiving 2010

Jack can be such a GRUMP at times, seriously. But than he will break out in these laughing fits and it makes you forget about his grumpy moments. I mean I guess we all can be moody at times, he is only a tiny little human (Michelle I just laughed as I typed that, an inside joke).

Back in Barrington one of his favorite spots is upstairs on the landing area. I get quite a workout here chasing him around from the basement to the 2nd level. Anyways, he likes to go up there and just "get wild" and he just breaks out in laughter. Warms my heart and makes me fall in love with him even more. And I need those moments lately because he has been waking me up at 2-3am. And while I bring him into bed to cuddle, he soothes himself by pinching and pulling my hair. It's a bit like torture.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

I hope you have a day filled of love and laughter.
Count your blessings.
Have a thankful heart. 

Don't be a grump, cherish the time with your family & friends!

And if you woke up in a grumpy mood with nothing motivating you to laugh (maybe you stayed out a little late), here's my last bit of motivation. It burns CALORIES! And we all need that on Thanksgiving. 10 to 15 minutes of laughing burns about 50 calories:) USA Today Article
