This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for September 15, 2008:
I love the ones that make me laugh!
Like when my little sister who was about 5 at the time, heard we were having company and was very upset because, as she put it, she "didn't want to sit at the little kids' table".
So my dad who was busy preparing food said, "Oh quit complaining, just go out and get the leaf." She questioned and he said "Out back; go get the leaf for the table." She stomped outside, past the patio and shed grabbed a leaf from the tree, came back in and slammed the leaf down and said "I don't know how this is going to help!"
Of course, the leaf for the dining table was in the shed. None of us expected her not to understand. We all started laughing. The power of laughter is so awesome!!!!
