I just couldn’t pass up posting this video. I laughed so hard that I cried on this one. I listen to a parenting podcast called Jumping Monkeys and they featured this video. Jumping Monkeys is part of the TWit network. I also want to try to embed a YouTube video like everyone else can:) Many of you will have seen this video but some of the readers of my blog, if they are still reading since I am not as consistent as I was in the summer, will not have seen this.
