The most watched comedian by my son Grayson and me is Jim Gaffigan. His jokes come at you so fast that you only get short breaks to catch your breath between laughter. I believe in the healing powers of Comedy. Jim could have his doctorate in humor that heals.

This video is perfect for fall because it is Jim’s take on Fall Foliage. Who hasn’t raked up leaves and then had your children jump on them for a free activity? I would rake all our leaves from the yard to the bottom of the slide. Then I would yell to my son, “Get over here and slide down to this pile of leaves that could have your bike helmet underneath.” I tried to move everything before piling up the leaves, but you never know.

Jim Gaffigan could make any activity funny. This video clip helps remind me that the fall foliage is not only beautiful but soon to be on its way out…so get out there and enjoy. Then come back home and google Jim Gaffigan’s stand-up. Grayson loves to ask, “What is your favorite Mom?” Let me know what your favorite is.
