Things that make me cry

I'm not much generally prone to tears but I've noticed that there are a few things that I simply cannot make it through without a misty moment (or even a gushing, water-spouting, snot-free-fall bawl):

Taps

Whether a military funeral or just a nightly ceremony, Taps does it to me pretty much every time.



Extreme Home Makeover

Any episode. Any week. Left to right, right to left. Ty and Paulie goofing off included. Simply cannot do it.

Baptisms

They'll never run short of water in the baptismal if I'm in the room. Although this one makes me laugh.



Proposals

Marriage ones. Generally not any other kind. (Although I have an accepted business proposal that I look back on with a tear or two ... )

Daddy/daughter dances

Yep - sentimental fool, that's me.

Happy weddings

Go figure. But at least there are occasionally tears of joy.
