I cut the grass and raked brush the other week. Although I didn't notice it while it was happening, it tore up my hands. Sweaty and hot, I came inside and inspected my blisters.
Par for the course. Apparently I've got soft hands. They blister easily with minimal friction.
I think of other areas in my life that are sensitive, this time in a good way. I want to have a tender heart. Give me a lip-dub proposal, draw me into a 52-second romance, remind me that my kids are growing up in a blink, or show me a father's love for his little girl, and I'm a sucker.
Oh yes, I cry easily at sappy things. It's a good kind of soft.
I can't be the only one. What book, movie, song, or commercial gets you every time?
 "Pin It")
I turn into a big ball of mush when i see those sweet diaper commercials. Also, a father and daughter dance at a wedding. Gets me every time!!
ReplyDeleteEverytime I hear that song " I Hope you dance." I think of my kids and cry
ReplyDeleteI make Steph tear up when I dance with my daughters when "I danced with Cinderella" by Stephen Curtis Chapman plays.
ReplyDeleteOy, this could be embarrassing! :) There was a Simpsons episode where one of Bart or his Grandpa saved the other from drowning and they had a little moment - and I cried. I don't typically watch the Simpsons, but I did one day - and it made me cry. There was also a commercial at one time about a couple planning for their daughter's education - and it was sappy, of course - it made me break down every time! So silly... Everything makes me cry!

ReplyDeletePretty much everything makes me cry, especially the Olympics. It doesn't matter who wins, when I see how happy they are I just cry.
ReplyDeleteOh man! I forgot about the Olympics. It reduces me to mush, too!
ReplyDeleteI feel you!
ReplyDeleteThat song will get you, for certain.
ReplyDeleteAnother good one.
ReplyDeleteI was just at a wedding and the father-daughter dance made me tear up, too! I was projecting into the future and thinking about my husband eventually doing this three times!
