As Sandwich Generation senior home care givers and grandparents, we can have good days and we can have difficult days. A good chuckle can brighten almost any day, lifting our spirits, as well as those of our beloved elderly parents. I saw these two and they gave me such a sweet laugh, I wanted to share them with you. 
A merry heart does good, like medicine. Proverbs 17:22
The blessing about this type of "medicine" is that you can enjoy it as often as you like. When a senior parent is feeling a bit down because the weather won't allow him to take a walk. or a grandchild is not feeling well, a good riddle, a funny knock-knock joke, or a cute picture like this can put a smile on their face, and yours as well.

Hi Joan – so glad you enjoyed this pix as much as me
We have been taking care of my parents. My brother always says, “ya gotta laugh or you’ll cry”. Laughter brings healing and keeps our focus on the importance of relationship. Thanks for sharing. Darling picture.
Hi Mary, thanks for popping by. I so agree with your brother!
I believe looking at the funny side definitely keeps us from going crazy! That is why I started my blog. I wanted to point out the humor of being a sandwich!
