I started blogging this past summer when my second son was a few months old. As of November 2012, my two boys are 22 months old and 6 months old. The goal of LaughingMom.com is to talk about general parenting issues but with an eye for humor. Readers are invited to submit their own stories to be shared in the Friday 'Make Me Laugh' feature.
