waiting for the tides to change

[purgatory]

Very brave of you to see *that* movie. The previews for it alone are enough to bring up the tears. (It doesn't help that I had an uncle in tower 1 that didn't make it out... it's a tough topic in my family.)

I have limited my self to movies that fall into 'action', 'suspense' and 'stupid funny' categories- very carefully avoiding anything that could possibly bring up emotions. Unfortunately, I went to see "Contraband" (GREAT movie btw, and Mark Walburg is some good eye candy) BUT the main characters, are mine and H's names! AND they have 2 little boys- a little too close to home.

I know it must have been tough to be around her kids, since they are so similar to your own. It's good that you call your babies every night, they might not be able to verbalize it yet to you- but they will remember that you *always* told them goodnight/ I love you, even when you were away. You are planting the seeds for them to know how much you really love them.
