Sometimes kids can teach us good lessons, we don't expect. My kids often teach me things, simply in the way they live. Today was one of those days -- and it was full of silliness (VIDEO proof below).

After a busy, somewhat stressful day, Rich and I decided to take the younger two to the playground for some fun. That's when I realized we hadn't taken enough pictures recently with all the running around.

We snapped the selfie above, which is my current Facebook profile pic, of course. Now, you know that was NOT the only shot. There were goofy faces and pretend mad faces etc until we got the right one. After that, we had fun watching the kids goof off on the playground.

That rest was much needed. We then got some more work done when they took off to the pool with one of their older sisters and played at their friend's house afterward.

Once I went to go get them, with an extra trailing along (one of those friends, of course), Aja (the 11 year old) proceeded to be funny with her swimming goggles. You can see a video of part of that below.

Have you ever noticed how much kids laugh in a single day? When was the last time you did that?

Today's Momtrepreneur Lesson: Put a little bit (or a lot) of silly in every day. You need it. We sure did.
