Things that make me Cry

I was thinking the other day how strange it is of what makes us cry. I cry, or get weepy, from the strangest things. Here are a few things that make me cry/weepy....

1. A Parade - i don't know why, this one is a mystery

2. The retired man that works at Tim Hortons - i see this man every morning while i am in the drive through. He's probably about 65 -70 years old, and every morning at 7:50 he comes to work with his Timmy's tennis hat and packed lunch in hand, ready for a fun day of cleaning tables. I smile and say a prayer for him each day. God Bless Timmy man!!!!!!

3. Watching a air plane take off - I always think of how many people have loved ones on those flights, praying for their safe return. Also that they are getting some dehydrated puppy poop substitution for nuts and a urine sample size cup of "something cold to drink" and I am not.

4. When Nathan answers the phone and says "hi this is Nathan" - He is just so....sweet. I love you Nathan!!!!!!

5. Fire Works - This year in particular the fire works made me cry. I was reminded of the many memories that fire works bring back for me. I watched them this year thinking of my memories and looking at my young son, thinking, "i hope his fire works memories are as good as mine". I would like to share some of my most fabulous fire works memories.
- Detroit Lakes (x 20) these are a given of the fab memories - God Bless America!
- Charleston, SC 2005 - Hey Sailor you like my clubbin pants? - God Bless the Navy!
- Spruce Woods, 2000, 2001, 2002, Bay 8 site 21 - A Jamie and Ryan Production
of "don't try this at home" - God Bless Cananda, and the good ole Canadian Boys!

6. Old people digging for change at the grocery store - i cry because i KNOW that will be me one day.

7. When you ask Sawyer if he wants to see Papa and Grandma and he wants to hug you.

8. On my last day of work before I leave for Holidays (i know this one kills me cause it's like "hey see you in 2 weeks") What could possibly be sad about that.

9. When I read emails from my sisters kids (all of them, especially the walking down the hall ones)

10. Driving past the junction of Hwy #2 and Hwy #5 ( Ryan you can relate?)

11. and last but not least, when i get a brazilian



So next time you get weepy, think about that baby and say......hey watcha cryin for, mama never raised no suck.

Oh, I can sure relate to some of those (except the brazillian). Don't know if I'll ever go there. One thing that makes me cry is when another school year is over and my kids say good-bye to their teachers.

I cried hardcore once because there was an old man and his older mom having breakfast in some restaurant and he was drinking a glass of milk. Totally bawled!
And I just about cried just reading your blog. You shouldn't do that to a pregnant woman.

If it makes you feel any better Crystal, I got very teary eyed reading her blog too.
