I love giving home made gifts…which one of the kids would you like?

I have to interrupt this spiritual movement. I have to. I don’t want to, but I have to.
What you probably don’t know is that I took another blog break this week while my testimony has been running, and oh I can’t wait to tell you how I have been blessed already just by sharing, but I have to wait… for a little.
I wanted this to be a reverent week and not post anything BUT my testimony, but something happened tonight that warrants an interruption.
I’d love to tell you that it is a God thing… actually, depending on how you look at it, it IS a God thing. Because I PRAYED HARD that this would turn out ok.
You see, several weeks ago, Matthew came home and announced the he was entering the talent show in the comedy category. I cringed. Yes, I think my son is HYSTERICAL, but he’s my son. I have to think that. I have to laugh at his jokes.
He did not share what he was going to do, just that it was about me and he did ask permission if he could use me as part of his act. What do I care? I make fun of myself every day on my blog.
He auditioned and he got a spot. And that’s when I feared going to this talent show. I didn’t want to invite anyone because I feared that I would be embarrased for him… (and for Samara… she entered too!)
Yesterday, I picked him up from dress rehersal and I was told that he was funny. But I was still fearful.
And so he made this little video (a MyPie Production… yes, there’s a story there) and I’m pretty impressed. And flattered that he asked me to be in it.
So please watch.
Watch him make fun of me.
Watch the audience ROAR with laughter. (And that’s not a laugh track after his jokes… because I WAS prepared to add that later.)
Watch me heckle him… and his comebacks.
And then remember, when he’s on Last Comic Standing and then on Comedy Central with his own show? Remember…you saw him here first!
It’s a Matt & Mom production! How cute is that? You need to keep that for some certain young man’s wedding.

Great job Matthew! I loved how he was strutting around the stage. LOL My favorite was the ’she can’t cook’ thing. That was hilarious. He did a great job! And you are a good sport for letting him make fun of you on stage
