Signs You May Be a Little Overemotional Today
* Your sister left two days ago and you're STILL sad about it.
* Your 13 year old with the cracking voice has been talking about Dr. Who for 15 solid minutes and instead of getting bored you're just thinking about how you'll miss him dearly when he goes across the pond to play that role on T.v. as per his plan.
* You heard the song Everything That Glitters Is Not Gold, by Dan Seals, circa 1985, and sang along. But you skipped a verse because you were choked up.
* Your in a-picky -eating- phase 2 year old cleaned his plate at dinner and you thought, "Phew, he'll live another day!"

This picture makes you think, I just LOVE that weird kid!

This picture makes you admire the way he cares for his brother's stuffed animals and how cute it is when he attempts to say "slush". (The name of one of them)

Don't let anyone tell you its hormones.. It's only the sign of a tender loving heart and the lack of chocolate, lol.
awwww. I suppose my son makes me feel overly emotional every day.
Sigh.
My daughter leaves Sunday...to spend the Summer with her dad.
And all I can think about is Demeter, and Persephone...
sniff....

Awww. Love this.
Dan chokes me up too.
Hope today is less emotional.
You have the cutest boys!
@tkperito - I can tell you're wise, very wise.
@Wildflowersp - I'm gonna have to google Meet me in Montana sometime today, for sure.
Awwww, I've been feeling some of that over-emotional stuff too. It feels a little out-of-control, but I think it also helps us value life all the more, and see the precious! But, I don't want to be in tears every day either! Ha!
I get this. I think we must be on the same....well....NeverMind.
I haven't heard Dan Seals in an age.
Love your last photo.
Gotta run and take care of my family or things really will get emotional around here.
That was me last week. LOL Only I wasn't sentimental I was MAD. GRUMPY. I prefer your way. xoxo
One of my boys had those same sneakers in the first pic.
Tell your son that my Jacob bought a Dr. Who t-shirt this weekend! I'll take a pic at some point.
HUGS.

my sister Mo's daughter went to England on spring break with her class and mother wasn't invited. She likes Dr.Who also.
I think I miss them more-sisters and brothers after I see them in person then if I hadn't seen them at all. It's all a good sadness though-you see how much they mean to you.
I have a photo of Phillip with all his stuffed animals and Captain Kangoroo at the dinner table having a little pretend party.
before I looked at the receipt four $6615, I accept that...my... mom in-law woz actually taking home money part time at their laptop.. there moms best frend has been doing this for less than seventeen months and just now paid the mortgage on there apartment and got a great McLaren F1. I went here, http://www.rev24.com
~*Giggles*~.. still fighting my little ones with eating... took up vitamins to help me feel better about their eating. Gotta love when a kid eats just one color phase, or only eats carbs, etc
My three year old grand kid is a picky eater too. The nine year old will eat mainly chicken nuggets, or chicken strips or some such thing. He has now started eating a few pieces of pizza. I too feel so happy when they eat some different food.
I am sorry you miss your sister so much. They are the best aren't they? I miss mine too, hope she comes up from Florida this Autumn and visits me.
