April Blog and Journal Prompts

by Mary Leave a Comment

I’ve always loved the saying laughter is the best medicine, even though I know that a good dose of medical treatment usually doesn’t hurt either.

My girls are beyond excited for April Fools Day. However, around here, we never need to wait to find a good laugh in any situation.

My youngest loves to read joke books and my oldest is working on her skills of writing her own jokes.

This month we’re treating ourselves to a bit of humor in our writing prompts.
