Eat Ice Cream on the Floor … and Other Unexpected Moments of Fun!

How often do you do something that is just totally unexpected, something you wouldn’t normally do but is just so silly it makes you all laugh? I just read one of my favorite blogs — Mommy Ever After — and this mommy talked about celebrating her little girl’s 18 month birthday by sitting on the floor together sharing vanilla ice cream. She added, “I think we’ll do it every half birthday!”

What do you do that is well, unexpected? Can you come up with something a little wacky that could lead to one of those cherished memories for you and your child? Maybe have a picnic UNDER the dining room table, complete with picnic blanket and basket and a yummy peanut butter and jelly sandwich inside. That probably fits in the “wacky” department.

Do you have silly memories like that? Share them. We’d love to know.
