I love da 3 Stooges. They always make me laugh. I call me kids, MY 3 Stooges. They always make me laugh. Especially when they are all together. Now they live in 3 different states and its rare for all three to be together. Christmas is the one time we all make the effort to meet at Grandma’s House in Oklahoma.
When da kids was little I use to force them to watch 3 Stooges. They use to say, “Mom thats so lame.” Then they would be laughing and accuse each other of acting la dat. How can you not appreciate that humor.
Watching 3 Stooges when you are sick in bed is the best medicine. 3 Stooges thereapy. No prescription needed and its free on TV. Or you can buy it on video or DVD and always have it ready.
I use to make my kids listen to the classic rock station too. Like they had a choice, I’m da Mom. The rule is whoever is driving has control of da Tunes (radio). LOL They were taters. It use to make them nuts and I would remind them ~ you lucky your Dad ain’t driving. You rather have classic rock oldies or country western? I rest my case. *L*
Now that da kids are grown I think they appreciate the little & big things WE made them do. They crack me up when they start talking about “rememba da time…..” Alot of times the kids can just say one word and they all start laughing. Nobody has to tell the story cause that one word just says it all. Alot of it I get cause I was there. Then there are somethings that its just between them.
Like somebody would say “2 Dollars!” And we would all crack up. Two dollars, is a line from the movie BETTER OFF DEAD (I think), the paperboy trying to collect his $2. Anden when da kids use to ask me for money all I would have in my wallet is $2, and I would givem’ to dem. They would yell $2. So when they went off to college or wherever, I use to send them stuff in da mail (and I still didn’t have $) but I would always include $2 and stamps. Now that they make more money then me, if they send me something in the mail they include $5 with a note keep the change.
I think all families have their own family humor. Stories and things that always make them laugh regardless of how many times its mentioned.

Tita Lika, Yep, raising kids was a challenge but also a joy. Each family has their own memories to hold their own little stories. As I read yours…my own came back so vividly. Have a great weekend.

When I read 3 stooges it caught my eye. Me and my husband used to be busy and our twins 4yrs and baby 1 yr would watch the 3 stooges. My baby would just laugh and laugh and we started paying attention, because our kids thought it was so funny, and actually sit and watch them. Then we would sit with them and we would have a good time. We lost one of our twins and our baby in a fire. Now sometimes we catch them on and think of the good times, we laugh at the show and talk and laugh about how our kids use to love this show. Now our only daughter is 9. I like your website
