Yesterday was a long day for me, with gigs from 1:00 pm to 9:00 pm, and only fifteen minutes at home in all that time to nurse Nell really quickly. I returned home tired and hungry and in need of some cheer.
I checked facebook and just happened to find three highly entertaining things recently posted by friends. Hopefully you'll find them as funny as I did, and your day will be brightened like mine was!
Amazon.com: Playmobil Security Check Point
{Read the customer reviews. So funny.}
Amazon.com: Hutzler 571 Banana Slicer
{Again, it's all about the customer reviews.}
And, saving the best for last: If you haven't seen Kid Snippets, you must remedy that fact immediately. I'm here to help. Basically, the makers of these film shorts ask kids to imaginatively playact a given scenario, and then they act it out with adult actors, complete with absolutely perfect lip-synching to the kids' voices. Here are a few of my favorites to get you started:
After the first episode I watched, I was sitting here going, "Whaaatt? I don't get it. What is this?"
So naturally, I watched another. And another. And... all of them.
Until there were tears in my eyes from the laughing.
{Be sure to check out the Kid History videos, too! We're particularly fond of #6.}
Thank you, thank you-- I needed that!! I, too, laughed so hard I cried at those Kid Snippets. I think it was mostly because they remind me so much of conversations I hear on a daily basis between my older two girls.
ReplyDeleteI may copy you and share these on my blog! :)
Sarah - I had such a hard time saying "goodbye" to my niece Felicity at Christmas - (cried for 20 minutes before falling asleep and then woke up and started crying again because I had had such a vivid dream about her...This is what happens when I get sleep deprived...)- that I told Ben, "I'm not sure if I'm cut out to be a mom! What if anything happened to our kids? I'm scared of how much it will hurt." Ben said: "It's always a risk - but it's one that's worth taking."
ReplyDeleteYou are brave and you have one amazing little Nell.
