WELCOME TO MY "OTHER" BLOG!

If you are coming from Building Heavenly Bridges (BHB), WELCOME and if you are finding me for the first time and looking for support after a loss, then please check me out at my grief/loss blog!



This blog is a series of anecdotes from our life after losing our first child, a stillborn daughter, then going on to birth the two other lights of our lives!

Bear is 6: serious, organized, my cruise director and my time keeper.

The Comedian is 4: She is pure comedy always doing something unintentionaly funny that I attempt to put into words.

Enjoy our stories, conversations, and delights as we embrace the lives of our second and third daughters without ever negating our first.

STOP giving her standing ovations, would ya?

And now...for the feature presentation of the day... The Comedian in The Pre-School Screening.

Featuring: The Teacher - M.S.

MS (with a big smile)- "Good Morning Comedian. We are going to play some games together to see how smart you are!"

Comedian: (agreeably) "OK"

MS (in a very sing song voice) - "If a brother is a boy, a sister is a _____"

Comedian: (smiles broadly)

MS (trying again - same voice quality) - "If a brother is a boy, a sister is a ______"

Comedian (with a look of recognition) "I have he friend. He friend a brother. That brother is my friend. He name L. L have a sister. She name is T."

MS ( stunned look - eyebrows raised, but determined because she knows Mrs. funny pants knows the answer!) "Wow. Yes that is very interesting but can you listen to my words?" (speaking a little slower now and annun.ci.at.ing clearly) "If a brother is a boy, a sister is a ______"

Comedian (puzzled as she is sure she just answered this) "Right. T is a sister and L is a brother. I don't have she's brother because I have a sister. Bear is my sister but she is not a brother."

MS (deep breath, smiling, a tad bit frustrated, but in truth - she's laughing but trying not to show it)

- INSERT ME SITTING IN THE CORNER OUT OF SIGHT, CRUMBLING INTO SILENT HYSTERICS BECAUSE I DON'T WANT THE COMEDIAN TO HEAR ME. IT WILL ONLY PROLOGUE THE SHOW AND THE POOR TEACHER IS LOOKING FOR A FREAKIN' ONE WORD ANSWER! -

MS (in a very even, calculated tone) "Comedian, lets try this one more time. If...a...brother...is...a ..boy...THEN a ...sister...is...a..._______?"

Comedian: (dumbfounded that this lady hasn't got the point yet when she was soooo explicit, looks her straight in the eyes and simply says) "A SISTER!"

She is so funny, A Sister is A sister, Of course!!! Thank you also for your comment, an ASL interpreter! How wonderful, what a gift. Our local high school offers ASL as an alternative to foreign language which I think is really great. I love the syntax with ASL, funny.
