When you cry in your sleep....
When you cry in your sleep.... I woke up crying. Not the weeping and wailing type of crying..... Just the continuous stream of tears rolling down my cheeks onto the pillow crying. I must have been doing it for quite some time as my pillow was just absolutely soaked. If there was a dream, I lost memory of it before I woke, all I remember is opening my eyes and feeling a tear slip from the corner of my eye. Middle 's graduation couldn't have gone more perfectly. I found a parking spot. The Spawn and I managed to find up front seating. I made it through the whole ceremony without crying. Well.... Almost. It was at the very end when the graduates were headed off the field. *Because of COVID and the size of Middle 's graduating class, the event was held in the football field.* I was clapping like a mad woman along with the rest of the crowd when I looked over at my tough-as-nails Spawn who remained seated in her chair. The rest of us were standing and waving and clapping and hollering..... And she was quietly crying. "Hey.... You ok?" I sat down next to her and gently rubbed her back, tears springing to my eyes as well now. "Yah, it's just sad." "Yep." So, there we sat, quietly contemplating the changes that are happening over the course of the next 24 hours. Our little family of three will very shortly become a family of two. |
