Laugh Anyway

Her motto in life is to find humor and joy in all situations you may find yourself in, and she certainly captured that in this book. Each little story, life lesson, and daily happenings has been recorded as Jen lived through each moment. As a reader, you not only get to laugh along with the ridiculous antics, but you get to peek at the innermost heart of Jen. She has a way of tugging at your heart strings, while exposing the deepest human emotions we experience on a daily basis, yet whipping you back to reality with a witty remark that brilliantly pulls the whole situation together.

Her two boys have brought her joy, pride and a wealth of hysterical tales that capture childhood innocence from a mother's perspective. From a son using profound vocabulary at a young age, to the other leaving and coming home early and deflated from Marine Corp boot camp, there isn't a dull moment for her as she raises her two young men. Jen has a doting husband who brings his own special sayings and squabbles to the table, including his military history and his loving spirit that helps to get her through her days. She deals with numerous family members, from ex's to in-laws to out-laws and everyone in-between. As her family picks up and moves to the country-side of Ohio, the outlandish folks she encountered were amusing beyond compare. The entire chapter of "Hillbillyisms" will have you rolling on the floor.
