   Silly is my mother dancing around the kitchen, no music playing, just the tune in her head. Silly is my sister making crazy faces to make me laugh when she knows I've had a hard day or I'm upset. Silly is my puppy as he tries to chase the only bird who dares to enter our yard, though the poor miniature dachshund stands no chance against the wings of a hummingbird. Silly makes you laugh, it makes you feel good.  Sometimes being silly is a forced act, to make a loved one laugh, but other times it's natural and that's the best kind of silly. That kind makes me smile the biggest and laugh the loudest.
