Laughter for BreakfastSomething woke me up. I opened my eyes. The curtains were drawn and moonlight reflecting off the snow lit up my room. I tried to pinpoint what woke me up. Then I heard it. Laughter. I could hear Curtis, a heart felt belly laugh. Then Justin� and Philip� even Moon. Curtis was laughing the hardest. I tried to focus. What were they laughing at? I lay in bed trying desperately to wake up enough to figure out what was going on. Then I could hear, it was the TV playing in the background. More laughter. What TV show could possibly make Curtis laugh so hard? I was so tired I couldn�t get myself to get out of bed, however I couldn�t stop listening either. Suddenly I could hear what was on the TV. They were laughing at themselves. When we�d dug out the VHS tapes on Saturday we�d come across a tape labeled �Curtis and Kyle�s Graduation� (which was a tape from their pre-school graduation). The boys were laughing so hard it made me smile. Then I could hear their sweet little voices on the tape, but not what they were saying. I heard Camille talking to the kids. She was taping the boys and talking to Megan, trying to get them all to talk. I think it was a tape that we made to send to my parents when they were living in Israel. Part of me wanted to get up and join them.It isn�t very often that one is woken up in the middle of the night by laughter. It was a wonderful sound. I finally woke up enough to get out of bed. When I climbed back into bed 5 minutes later, I snuggled under the covers happily listening to the boys laughing, and drifted back off to sleep. I tell you, there is no better way to start a Monday.
