Laughing 'til We Cried For better or worse, through thick and thin, Laughing or crying, How blessed we've been! Help me! Whether you are a parent and are at your wit's end or a grown child of a parent who struggled to raise you, this book will show you how to keep your sanity and laugh through the tears. Award-winning authors Rosemary & Guy Scott take you through the pitfalls and pratfalls of real parenting with true-to-life stories that will make you laugh, or at least ponder the most philosophical questions and issues in life such as: "If a person had no thumbs, how could they hitchhike?" or "Lucky died at lunch today, so we need to change his name." If you prefer to focus on the humor of problems such as how to feed four kids when your spouse just got fired, or what to say when the neighbor loudly proclaims that her one child is ten times more work than your brood, then this book is for you. Most of these stories have been previously published in our weekly column, but we realize that not everyone lives in small town Texas. We thought we'd share our treasures with the rest of world. This book will help parents who are trying to show their children a better way, even though they may have been awful teenagers themselves; it can provide the inspiration for you to smile and feign support when your teenagers form a heavy metal garage band that practices daily in your garage, and everyone is just learning how to play electric guitars and drums while screaming horribly at the top of their lungs. If you've ever had to live through a camping trip when the farts hang so thick in the tent that the air resembles mustard gas and wild pigs snort dangerously close outside so that there is no escape, then this book is for you. Yes, yes, we know that you love your children more than life itself but face it: someday you may find yourself clutching a sick toddler and racing down the hall in an effort to beat the projectile vomit that will soon be spurting into your hair. But the sad reality is that sometimes you will not make it on time, and two showers later, your spouse wonders why you take such long bathroom breaks wherein you find yourself weeping or talking on the phone or laughing uncontrollably so you don't lose it. If any of this rings true, then this book may help you through your own challenges. "Laughing til We Cried," is an instant classic which promises to entertain, delight, and amuse you with stories about the joys of parenthood and the husband-wife relationship. We hope you enjoy reading this as much as we have enjoyed living these experiences, where we would often laugh until we cried. Cheaper than a case of Kleenex or professional therapy, this book will entertain you until the cows come home, the chickens come to roost, or at the very least, until you pass out into blissful dreamland where every child on the planet is loved and beloved and all is right with the world.
