My word...
cach·in·nate [kak-uh-neyt] –verb
to laugh loudly or immoderately.
This word totally suited me today. For one, I need to laugh more. Laughing does SO MUCH for one's soul. It can instantly get rid of a bad mood, tension, stress, depression, sadness, irritability, anxiety, grief, you name it. Laughter is one of the best medicines there is. I have gone through A LOT this year...losing family members to death, friends to differences, and even a part of myself to the new role I have undertook...the role of a new mommy/wife and stay-at-home mom (while trying to create balance because I am still a business owner). It's been hard on me and it's been a hard adjustment. I haven't been laughing as much as I have in the past and I am determined to change that...and yesterday helped...
I spent pretty much all day yesterday "cachinnating". My friend Val's daughter (they have both been mentioned in this blog quite a few times) turned one yesterday so we spent the day together with our girls, champagne, and laughter. I feel blessed to have found a friend who can laugh her
It was SUCH a great day yesterday that I still find myself "cachinnating" today! :)
Cheers to friends, toddlers, laughter and champagne! :)

I cachinnated a lot yesterday, and even today reminiscing about all the cachinnating that went on, it made me cachinnate all over again :)
I too am grateful for the friend I have found in you.
Awww. We just had a warm fuzzy moment didn't we.
ps. my computer does not recognize this word cachinnate. It thinks it should be machinate (which is a verb meaning 'engage in plots and intrigues; scheme) when I spell check it! :)
That's kind of a fun word...I must be sure to add it to my regular list of "big" words...lol...Great post.!
Ooooh, champagne. Now that is something worth cachinating about :).
Yes indeed...we all need to laugh more..love the word and will incorporate into my vocab...whom I kidding.
First time visiting and love your blog...you have a beautiful family. I will definately be back!
What a fun intersesting word. I have never heard it before.. How sad is that? I love to laugh too. A girls night is tons of fun.. and chocolate chips straight from the bag.. yummo.
Hey, I learned something new today. Thanks for the post!
Your little one is adorable and like you, I had a lot of adjusting to do when my first was born. They take a lot out of you and it can be a little overwhelming!!
Thanks for reminding us both how important it is to cachinate!! :)
I think everyone can always use some more laughter in their life!!
