Is it just me or do all the kiddos seem to be rowdier than usual? Ah. It must be the end of the school year! I dare say this time of the year is almost equivalent to the excitement felt at Christmastime. I feel the pool calling my name. But before I can sink my toes in the cool waters of a community pool, I need to make it until Memorial Day Weekend. I’m praying I can make it, but with one hyper child bouncing off the walls with a condition known as “can’t-wait-for -summer-itis” and the other having torrential melt-downs because something doesn’t go her way, I just don’t know if I can hold on!!
Besides busting out my fav Bible verses, giving myself pep-talks, and deep breathing, I’ve also included laughing in my prescribed remedies for crazy stressful moments/days/weeks when I feel as if I’m gonna explode.
I’ve discovered that laughing really does help lift my mood, and ability to manage my stress level! 🙂 It also works with the kiddos…I just need to remember to help to turn their screaming into laughter. 🙂
So whenever I’m feeling stressed, or grumpy, I yell for the kids (in a pleasant tone of course, 🙂 ) and we check out our favorite youtube videos that have us hee-hawing within minutes! If you have a few minutes to laugh, check out our top picks are sure to bring a smile to your face, if not a hearty chuckle. ENJOY!
