My mom loves to laugh. Her whole family would roast each other to no end and giggle the whole way through. All moments were an opportunity to laugh. It's easy to get bogged down it life's big and little miseries, and we had so many of them, but humor let us look down the barrel of the gun and dodge its bullets.

humor let us look down the barrel of the gun and dance around its bullets.
