UP

Tonight was February's special time with mom for Mason. He chose to go to a movie with me, but since there are none at the theatre worth seeing with kids, we rented UP instead. I haven't cried that hard at a Disney movie since Old Yeller. 10 minutes into the show and I am bawling. Cried in the middle, and yep, cried the last 15 minutes of the show. I'm talking about tears streaming, throat hurting, hold my breathe kind of cry. As I'm trying to muffle my sobs at the end, Mason turns and says,"Are you crying mom?" Yes, and I just couldn't help myself. When the old man pinned his grape soda pin on Russell's badge I thought I'd lose all control. Lucky for me, I have a sweet boy who helped me get through the end of the show. Thanks for the show Mason! Mom loves you.

Now you've got me really interested in seeing this movie. I love crying in movies while trying to hide my tears from Mardy.

Get this....we saw that in the theater in St. George with Steph. We saw a matinee with Will. That "15" minute part comes, I am crying, and look over and realize that they had bussed in about 75 senior citizens to see it! AWKWARD!

That's one of the boys favorite movies and even now after seeing it a couple hundred times, I still bawl like a baby all the way through. Stu's been known to shed a tear or two as well.
