Make Me Laugh Monday

February 18, 2008 by bananas

Every other day of the week is fine, yeah.
But whenever Monday comes,
but whenever Monday comes
You can find me cryin’ all of the time.
Monday, Monday…

~The Mamas and the Papas

The Mamas and the Papas were right. Lately, Mondays make me want to cry. ALL OF THE TIME. Which is why I’m trying out this new concept called Make Me Laugh Monday. Because laughing is better than crying, any day of the week.

Here’s my contribution for the week. I wish I could take credit, but these were emailed to me by my brother-in-law (thanks, Jordie).

Kids have it all figured out, don’t they?!

    Those are so cute. I love the “thanks for the brother, but I wanted a puppy” one. So funny!

    My contribution isn’t quite as, um, sweet. Shocking, but true.

    I’m sorta crying about mine, laundry still to do, but SOME might find it funny.

    Oh, the irony of wishing I had something to post, and then realizing that I did indeed have something to post.

    Maybe I shouldn’t wish for things like that any more!

    Ok, so I went to all-dressed-up’s glitter story, and then I followed your link to YOUR glitter story, and I have never laughed so hard in all my life!!! I was snorting and laughing…and then I had to explain it to my son who kept asking “What’s so funny mama??! What’s so funny?” I just said, “A mama washed herself with a washcloth, and the washcloth turned out to be filled with glitter from her child — so she got covered in glitter” whereupon Son snorted in totally fake laughter along with me. I didn’t have to fake it. Thank you, again, for the great Monday. :)

    Ansolutely brilliant! My favourite is the child who thanked God for their baby brother but pointed out he had actually prayed for a puppy. I love children’s innocent honesty!

    I’ve posted some funny signs in my contribution, they actually show that possibly children are far more logical than adults!

    I’m trying to think of next Monday’s post already!!

    You are tagged for a little linky love if you fancy it sweetie. But no worries if not. :D

    Hi! I’m loving this new segment! Sorry I’m a little late getting this one in today. It’s been a rough one, with everyone sick at my house.

    Thanks for hosting! Great idea!

    I revised the post to include the link back but for some reason can’t figure out how to get the link to work in this comment thingee. I feel like a dork now. Let’s see if this link works now:
