Last week someone told me they bought the Stuff Christians Like book as a gift for mother’s day. Let me just say, that is awesome. But maybe you’re not so sure. Here, in addition to it only costing $9, are 7 reasons the book makes a fantastical gift for graduates or moms.

1. Your mom needs to laugh. You did some horrific things as a kid. Diapers, missed curfews, that nose ring you gave yourself, you owe your mom.

2. Flowers die. It’s true. They are disposable. Mirth? Mirth last forever. Give your mom the gift of mirth.

3. Graduation gifts are horrible. No one wants the ruler made of glass with the “As for me and my dorm, we will serve the Lord” verse stamped in bronze. Give the book.

4. College seniors are graduating into one of the worst job markets ever. They need to laugh.

5. High school seniors need the first chapter of the book before they go to college.

6. Your kids will think you’re cool if you get them the book. It will make up for that time you called “Lady Gaga,” “Lady Jaja.”

7. You downloaded the free audio book but that promotion is over and now you want to pass on the mirth to a loved one.

If I convinced you, here are the easiest ways to give the gift of laughter.

Michael Hyatt is a blog expert. Seth Godin is a blog expert. I think of myself as a blog experimenter. I don’t always know what to do, but I have the patience to try it again and again in this lab of a blog until I get it right.

And lots of ya’ll are the same way. You’ve got a blog and have ideas and have had failures and successes just like me. I’d love to hear what they are today. I’d love to hear what you’ve learned about the blogging world. I’ll go first with 4 things I’ve learned.
