I don't know why but I am a lot more emotional lately. I cry at sentimental, sad or even happy things. Maybe it's because I appreciate my family more since I've been away at school, or that I just appreciate life in general. Or that I'm getting older and with age comes experience. I even get emotional watching characters get killed off of tv shows like when Dr. Pratt got killed off ER. I guess I'm becoming more like Jillian because she cries at everything. This news story is what touched me today. A mom serving in the military in Iraq comes home to surprise her family.
