What mad thing has made you tearful today? Lighthearted!

[Flylight]

Today on a school trip to the sea life centre I found myself welling up at some enormous lobsters - I looked into their eyes and they looked so intelligent. The kids thought I was mental

Aibu to ask what bonkers things have made you cry of late?

My u11 rugby team winning their first game for 2 seasons. Their little faces.....

An elderly man carrying a tray of tea and cakes to his wife in a cafe. Proper welled up!

The face of one of my form when I told them I was leaving. Dear lord, he couldn’t have gone any whiter. I’m his ‘safe’ person, he has serious anxiety. Sorry, not too light hearted.

The cavity wall being replaced. Who knew it would be so bloody messy. Spoiled my planned afternoon in the sun

I had a full on meltdown in a car park today because there was a hornet in my car. I’ve never seen one before and thought it was a wasp on steroids. To be fair, I’m 33 weeks pregnant and v hormonal and I convinced myself I was going to die. A nice lady came and helped me but everyone must have thought I was insane

I follow baby animals on instagram and just been on looking at the pictures.
Gorgeous pictures of proud mummies andtheir adorable wonderous babies.
I've got something in my eye

Not light-hearted but had to leave my ten month old for his first full day at nursery. He was sobbing and reaching out for me but I had to go as was late for the train. All day I kept picturing his little face as I left and bursting into tears. Left uni early and went to get him at 3 because I couldn’t bear it any longer. Now up going through the lectures I missed, periodically getting sniffly at the thought of leaving him again tomorrow .

We have a really old Cd, an album of kids songs that i had when I was little and now love to play for the kids. Got songs on like 'Right said Fred', the original Robin Hood, and 'A Mouse Lived in a Windmill." And "Two little boys" which Dd loves. I know it's Rolf Harris, but she doesn't.
No I found myself tearing up listening to it on the school run today, as she was singing along. "But I think it's that I remember, when we were two little boys".

Love the hornet in the car, that would be pretty scary to be fair!

The last two days of my period make me very down. I had to hold back tears over the most stupid things today including dropping a biro. I have been super stressed over the last few days so I think it is adding to it.

Greg James in radio one at tea time introducing the queer eye gang as having the most kindest diverse reality show in the world.

It’s kinda true and I maybe crying now 😢

We got my adopted DS's Life Story Book from his social worker- basically a child friendly version of the first year of his life. All information that I have been aware of for the past 6 months since we first linked with him. In fact I know a lot more detail than is included. But reading it in one place in a story that I will read to my son, broke my heart and made me sob!

[PandaG]

Revising poetry with DD for GCSE Eng lit tomorrow. Poppies is about a mother mourning the loss of her son as he leaves home, implied to war, or at least joining up.

My DS will soon be leaving home, but for university (results pending) and I am happy for him spreading his wings, but oh, I will miss him so much.
The poem describes Eskimo kisses (rubbing noses) - I did that with my Gran, she did it with my kids and so did I. She died 7 years ago...

Watching a DVD of Due South that I found in a charity shop, it made me cry because I was 14 and innocent when I first saw it and the actors are all older. I'm pregnant and it mattered more at the time!

[MuddyForestWalks]

I cried because I am so bloody tired and I was nearly asleep after another never ending day, and just as I was nodding off DS woke whinging for a feed, and he nursed for forever and now he is in my bed making me too hot to sleep.

[BuntyII]

I was walking along carrying my son and my foot went from under me? I went over on my ankle and had to sit down on the pavement. A kind women came and asked was I ok and held DS while I stood up. I hobbled to the car and cried and cried!

[NCPuffin]

I told a year 10 boy (aforementioned literature exam TMRW) I might cry a little on the inside if he left his revision materials in school again. TA says "Miss might actually cry tears on the outside too you know." And I welled up. Do not say such reckless things to a pregnant woman

[Birdshitbridgegotme]

My son went on a huge roller coaster today with my friend (I was too chicken to go) I didn't know when he was on as the que went round the corne. but I heard him screaming at one point (could tell it wa him)and I welled up as he sounded traumatised....when he got off he said he loved it!

[Sillybilly1234]

I couldn't find my whistle so my kids ran around until we found it because they knew I was really tired.

[Treaclepie19]

That The Middle is ending (tv show) and how lovely it might be to have 3 children like they do (We have one)
I'm blaming my period.

[Inarightpickleandchutney]

I’ve just gone in and looked at DD asleep with around 0.78 million teddies around her and felt so bloody lucky I cried.
Then I went to the fridge and found a KitKat I had forgotten about and felt so bloody lucky I cried again!!

I may have PMT.....

[UnlawfulBannanaPeeler]

My dad made my kids a sand and water table because I couldn’t afford to buy one. And it’s really good. I regularly cry at home because he’s old and the best 😂
