I thought it would be fun and enriching to share some of our "silly" emotional episodes....
My latest was last Tuesday,Dh and I were going out on a much needed date.(We almost didn't cos I said I was just too tired.)So we arranged for the kids to visit my parents while we went out.They were pretty exited, and Dh bought them happy meals,(a point of compromise in our relationship...)so they were way exited.We dropped them at my parents,and my mom was outside, so she just took them in,and we stayed in the parking lot.Ds(3 3/4+ yrs.)started walking in all happy,then turned and got a little teary and ran back for hugs and kisses,dd (2 yrs)just pranced in with grandma.I got in the car and litterally sobbed uncontrollably !My kids were going to open their happy meals in all their exitement without me, and the look on ds's face was just SO heart-piercing!(I get teary-eyed just typing it!)Poor dh had no clue what was going on, and once I could finally speak, I just told him it was a pregnancy thing, and quietly cried for a few more minutes....Such a "silly" reason for a breakdown! But it was too much, and very serious at the time!KWIM?
So, there is my latest.Anyone else care to share?
