Veteran moms have warned me: once you become a mom, you'll cry over the dumbest things. You thought those sad homeless puppy/kitty commercials wouldn't get to you? Heck, roadkill will get to you!
Ok, maybe its not that extreme, but for SURE, my emotions run courses they've never run before. Something clicked when I became mommy.
The other night, my husband and I were watching The Walking Dead. MAJOR SPOILER ALERT (avert your eyeballs from this page if you've not watched up to season 4)::::::::::
You know that part where Carol has to kill the older daughter because she went bezerk and stabbed her sister to turn her into a zombie? First of all, I was horrified when I saw that girl with the knife in her hand and her little sister bloodied and dead on the floor. But then, what to do with her now? She's gone off the deep end for sure! So, Carol shoots her dead! I BURSTED OUT in tears. My husband missed the scene and when he came back and asked me what happened, I couldn't even tell him because I was too busy crying my ass off. He literally laughed in my face, but understood and told me he purposely walked away because he didn't want to see the inevitable happen.
It happens to dads too. While watching the series, my husband confessed that he kept thinking about Ethan and putting himself in Rick's shoes. My husband, the hero. Now I'm crying again....tears of laughter.
