I've Been Crying Every Day

If anyone has been listening to Mix 101.5 WRAL FM these last few days, you'll understand why.

They're currently doing the "Bill & Sheri's Annual Radiothon for Duke Children's Hospital" and what that means is that they play emotional songs about kids and love and heartache and joy and intersperse them with personal testimonies and kids' voices saying cute things and asking us to support the children's hospital.
What that also means is that every day, on my morning and evening commutes, I end up crying. This morning it was "Butterfly Kisses" by Bob Carlisle that did me in. Of course, that song makes me cry every single time I hear it, without fail. But there was one song they played the first evening that was interspersed with a mom telling the story about her twin babies born premature and how one of them died. Then there was the poem Sheri read last night called "Before I Was A Mom" and she couldn't read it without crying. And that made me cry.
I'm not an at-the-drop-of-a-hat crier but I'd have to say that most of the times I cry it's because someone else is crying - in real life, in a movie or show, or because of a song like "Butterfly Kisses". This 2-day radioathon has sent me over my annual quota of tears.
