How to find humor in any situation

I just found this article and read it to Charles. We both completely understood the poor chap's situation and were able to laugh at the satirical humor of dealing with vermin.

On that happy note we caught our first rat last night. Hopefully we will catch them all before too long. We also caught a mouse under the hose. The exterminator said it is very odd to have both rats and mice since rats can be quite territorial. Of course our house would be the exception.

Other than that life is going on as usual. We canned some beautiful and delicious pears last weekend. Ella has been my super helper lately. She picks up things I cant get and brings me water when I don't feel well. I love her so much and appreciate her sweet desire to serve. Charles is busy with work and recently was called to be the stake auditor. Lucky guy, now he can even count numbers on Sunday's :)

We are all looking forward to the new baby! For Ella, October cant come fast enough. (though it is hard to tell what is more exciting, picking a costume or getting a brother.)
