Best Things are Free Day 18

Laughter, like a child's. 

Not the cynical snickering or sarcastic huffs or sardonic hums I have donned with adulthood.

But that sound of five kids in a swimming pool and some made up game of "hamsters with powers" and "evil frogs" (?).

Uninhibited, innocent, joyful, silly.

This is so true!
Nothing lightens up a heart like true genuine children's laughter!

Have a wonderful Sunday!
