Morning Laughter

Dennis and I have always enjoyed our mornings, together. Very few days start out without a morning song sung by each of us. Some days we sing a real song, other days we make one up that just seems to fit the moment. We also like to make each other laugh out loud before anyone gets going on the day. It may be a story, our silly songs, or a gentle tease.

We are allowing Shiva become part of this morning ritual, too. This morning, I helped her up on the bed to join us in our trying to wake up, weekend morning, laughing out loud routine. She is a nut job. She starts out by wiggling her way into Dennis armpit, and then licking and tugging on his hair. Then she begins jumping at our feet and fingers under the duvet. Dennis and I both bursted out laughing at her shenanigans.

I love starting my mornings in this way. Regardless of what takes place for the rest of the day, we always have mornings that commence with enormous laughs and joyful hearts.

Until Tomorrow,
Ann and Dennis
Living with Shy-Drager, Multiple System Atrophy and lots of laughter
