I Seem to Have Misplaced Someone

In the past week, I have lost my daughter 3 times. Twice at church and once in our yard... sounds awful - doesn't it? People must think I am an idiot!

Sometimes she runs ahead or I get distracted... either way, it makes me feel terrible and I frantically run about trying to locate her. Maybe that's why I laughed when I got this joke the other day. I don't usually forward jokes, let alone post them on this blog; but - it's been a tough summer, with the kids. Or at least it feels like it tonight.

I am not sure that I agree to the statement that men are happier people. Certainly they do not struggle with the same things as women do... and that's what made this so funny to me. Laugh at what you find amusing and disregard the rest!

  1. That is funny! I can relate to the same hairstyle comment. My hubby's had the same one for years. Never changes!
