So tonight I was watching Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. Anyone that has watched it, knows what a tear jerker it can be.
The Mom of the family started talking about her illness and saying it was awful when they didn't think she would live, but at least she got to say good bye to her kids; She got to tell her kids all the things she wouldn't normally be able to do. How many parents (that die before their kids) get to tell their kids these things. She lived through it, but still....
I don't know why but this struck a note with me. And I thought, if I were to die in a car accident or some sudden accident I would not get that chance. And I started to cry....
The kids were still up and Dominic(sitting on the other side of the couch) came running over to me...
Domo:Mommy What's wrong, don't cry!!
Me: It's ok hun, the show just made me cry
Domo: is it b/c Daddy never gave you his phone number???
HAHAHA what a sweetie, how can THAT not make me smile!!!
