Hormones??

I've always been a sensitive person in the aspect that I was sensitive of other people's feelings and my own. As a child I came home from school several times because of children that seemed too poor or if they were made fun of by other kids. I would tell my mom about it and cry as if it happened to me. But as I got older, I didn't cry that much. Except for Good-Byes! I've always been the world's worst when it comes to good-byes! But I never cried at movies. I didn't cry at sentimental things like letters and cards. But something happened to me after having Addison. I started crying all the time and not in a bad way. Just in a "Is this really me?" way I guess. But seriously, I cry at everything both good and bad. I bought a card for my Mother in Law two weeks ago and knew I had the right one because I cried when I read it. I cried when I picked out Nathan's card for our anniversary because it was so true and everything I wanted to say. I'm so in love with Addison that sometimes it brings me to tears. Any time I look back at pictures of Addison and see how much she has grown I cry then too.

I don't really understand this new me. It's almost like the post partum hormones never left. I feel deeper and things hit me stronger than before. I really never understood tears of joy until I met her in those first few moments. She opened something in me and I guess since it's 14 months later, it isn't going to end. So if I ever tell you that I read something on your blog and it made me cry, just believe me that I'm not just being nice, I honestly did. :)
