Apparently I am certifiable. I think I’m actually looking forward to tears at HS Grad ( a few weeks to go, then will report in). Don’t want a full-fledged breakdown,mind you (that celtic-coloring, EK4 :)). Trying to guess why I feel this way - and I’m thinking it’s due to S’s absolute refusal to act like he cares, at least most of the time. Altho I did post that he and two friends admitted to welling-up at their final concert performance, with “You’ll Never Walk Alone” as the special encore - designed to eliminate dry eyes, I figure, and it even worked for the boys!

Chase Card Services has a series of TV commercials running currently - graduations, weddings with the father going between current views of his daughter and flashbacks to her birth, childhood etc. I’ve seen them each 3-4 times and still well up anew. And it’s a commercial for gdness sakes!

Yes, a full box of kleenex at upcoming Senior events will make me v popular with the other moms, I’m sure.
