I am an emotional person. When I read of a sad story, I get really effected by it. Well, I have been following this blog about a man who's daughter was born and his wife died all within a 27 hour period. It is so sad. :frown:

    Omg, I don't think I can even read it. I get super emotional, especially about mother/babies dying. I couldn't even watch Americas Most Wanted last night because it was about a baby killer! I cry at all of it, especially since having a child of my own.

    I am the same way, but this man is amazing. He has a way of writing. Poor thing, I just want to hug him :(

    Yeah...I know I'm a guy, but I'm also a big softie. I'm going to read that and I am sure I will tear up if not outright cry :sad: . Stupid empathy. :grumble:


    :happy:

    When I became pregnant with my first child I became a walking waterfountain. 10 years later I still cry at commercials sometimes. SOmeone told me once that when you have a child they take a piece of your heart and they are out ther in the world with that piece and it makes you more vulnerable. I think that's why the waterworks can come gushing out. I don't think I can read it, I've had a pretty emotional night already.
  • I want my daughter to grow up and have a healthy life. But I cry at the thought of not seeing her everyday. One day I will be like my mom and get a call on holidays.:sad:
