babies cry all the time but so do moms! i cried when my baby came out into this world due to pain, happiness, disbelief and so many more–i was a melting pot of emotions!
i cried when mikkel said his first word (dog!), when he ate his first solid meal, when he took his first step, and when he sang his first song (it was during mass and people were solemnly singing “our father,” mikkel joined in by singing the only song he knew, “happy butdey”).
i cried buckets of tears the first time he said, “i yab yu ma” and i know i am going to flood the church when my son gets married (hopefully with someone whom i i approve of! i can imagine what a big monster-in-law i can become).
i’m a one big crymommy. i am more a crymommy than mikkel was ever a crybaby. i don’t know how that happens. it’s like whenever mikkel does something, even the simplest, most ordinary feat that he accomplishes, i feel a surge of emotion much more powerful than what rationality or logic can explain.
now i understand why i always caught my mom crying during moments that were supposed to be happy. she cried during my first ever dance performance in school, she shed a tear or two when i gave her a happy mother’s day card, and she uncontrollably sobbed whenever i or any of my two brothers tell her we love her. up to now, she still does!
a mom’s love–it’s a happiness that’s beyond the laughable kind. you’d only get it when you become a mom yourself :)when you become a parent, that is the only time that you will ever begin to comprehend the enormity and depth of your parents’ love for you.
