I just tried to explain the end of The Railway Children's emotional hold over me to my husband ('Daddy! My daddy!') but was crying before I could get those three words out.
Same with the end of The House at Pooh Corner. I'm going to make DH read that to DD when she's old enough because I know I won't be able to.
Tell me I'm not alone? And tell me what makes you cry like a child so I can go and research it for myself and enjoy a blub
