bday

It's my baby's birthday today, and by baby I mean my daughter, my last and only little girl. She turned 8 today. She is growing so quickly and I feel like crying. I am such a sook lately! I can't explain why, but anything will set me off. I was watching the time traveller's wife and cried. Actually I had to stop the DVD a couple of times to compose myself and then continue watching. I didn't really like the movie but it made my cry. Then I watched Mao's last dancer. Guess what? I cried again, cried like a little baby. And today I went to watch my younger two at their cross country. I saw a young mother with her younger child pointing to her older boy amongst the other children. The little brother was calling his name and he couldn't hear him so he kept getting closer and closer until finally he heard his baby brother and turned around and smiled and waved at his brother and when he saw his mother his face lit up, it got me a little emotional...again. At this stage I think anything could set me off.


Happy birthday my daughter.

Happy Birthday! Eight is a lovely age. I know what you mean about the tears; the only thing I can think of is to embrace it?

Well not much else I can do but accept the tears and try not to embarrass them when I do cry.
