A friend of mine, @inprogress, tweeted this video last night and I just couldn’t pass it up.  KK and I were in tears reading through the captions.  So funny.  Thought about waiting until Monday for it, but it’s too good.  Now your turn.  Go burn some calories and laugh!

So I know this is a little out of the normal order of things around here, but I just couldn’t pass up this video any longer.  My daughter is now 5 1/2 months old and is growing up before our very eyes (I guess that phrase works for almost every kid…except for Benjamin Button).  We have been trying out several different types of solid foods the latest being nectarines, peas and plums.

One of my favorite things about this whole parenting thing is watching and realizing the craziness of all the firsts.  I’m not talking about the walking or talking or whatever.  I mean the first time she experiences things.  The first time she tries to laugh but can’t because she doesn’t know how.  The first time she tastes something sweet but doesn’t know what to do because she has never had sweet before.  The first time she is tickled but doesn’t realize it’s funny.

Fortunately since my wife and I have been blogging and videoing all the time, we have caught many of these on camera.  This one is so amazing I have just watched it over and over and over.  Not like her first real laugh.  Not like a daddy looking at his growing daughter.  Not like that.  I watch this one over and over and over because I laugh so hard it hurts.  I’m not a crier, but I have already laughed so hard at this video that I have had tears streaming down my face!

Yeah.  It’s that good.  I recommend repeatedly restarting the video at about 12 seconds.  And cue the tears.

A little toilet humor for you…just in case you forgot how.

Not a good enough blog for you?  Too bad.  My vacation started last night.  Deal with it.

As I kick off a new week and I’m gonna take my first stab at trying to digest all that I saw and heard last week at Catalyst West Coast.  One of the things that I have really enjoyed the last couple years at Catalyst West is that they have brought in a Christian comedian for one of the sessions.  It is a great break from the heaviness of the rest of the speakers for the most part and it is very welcomed.  This year they brought in a guy named Michael Jr.  The dude was hysterical!  But more than that he is doing something that I have never seen before.  He is taking his comedy on the road less traveled.  It’s a pretty incredible ministry that he is doing and I wanted to share it with you all this week.  Watch this trailer and then go check out his site Comedy: The Road Less Traveled!
