sappy post...
today I had an appt. about a half hour from my house. The drive is a nice country drive and I was listening to some Kenny Chesney? One of the songs-I think it's There Goes My Life-I could not stop crying then rewinding then crying then rewinding. I was making myself suffer. For those that know the song I'm sorry but I must say it's the part where the daughter is leaving, he watches her pack the car, she hugs them goodbye (I get to that part and I choke up completely), then he says,"there goes my life, my everything, baby goodbye." I'm sniveling at this point. Okay more like sobs. My daughter is turning 14 next week. I think I say this all the time but how did this happen? I know the song is sung by a male but I was feeling this song. I come home and this is sitting on the counter. My Secret Sis gave it to me and I hadn't put it away yet. Soo many things make me happy. I had an awesome week and I'm still grinning about it. I loved it. Loved the women. So, even though I'm sad my daughter is growing up wayyyy tooo fasssst. I have happiness still! I can't be sad. I scrapbook it and my little girl will always be on my pages.

Ohhh Christine....try not to be sad. Try and remember that she is growing into a wonderful young women who you get to spend wonderful times in the future. Sorry that your sad.
Kenny's songs get me too!!!!! I was watching the I go Back Video this morning and it made me sad too.
That's true! That's why we scrapbook. I do that to myself too-sometimes a good sad song & a cry in the car are good for us I think!
Ok. A challenge for you. Make a layout about "10 Things that Make Me Happy". Ok, I know, really cheesy. But then when you have these sad moments you can look at it and smile. Just like seeing that patch, only 9 more things that also make you happy.
Chris has a great idea... and things that make you sob like that just means that they have deep meaning for you.
