I get so emotional, baby!

These books. Whew. These books make me cry each and every time I read them to the boys. That Nancy Tillman is a creative genius.

On the Night You Were Born

Wherever You Are My Love Will Find You

Each night before putting the triplets to bed we read them a bedtime story.  I know as soon as I pick up either of these books that I will be crying by the end. They just get to me. Each story is so sweet and absolutely beautifully written and illustrated. Each and every word rings so true and has a path straight to the strings that tug on my heart. By the end of the book I'm all choked up and trying to just get the last few words out. The boys don't know what I'm saying yet but they probably know that their mom is a hot mess struggling to get through the end of the book and hopefully they know and feel how very much they are loved.

Even though I've warned you that they make me cry and they very well may make you cry as well, I would really highly recommend both of them. If you don't have them, buy them. If you have them but haven't read them yet, do it. You will be glad you did. That's all.

P.S. Did the title of this post make you start singing Whitney Houston's "So Emotional" in your head when you read it? If it wasn't already in your head, it probably is now! When I was trying to come up with a name for the post, that song popped into my head and it's a good one. Ain't it shocking what love can do?!?! If you want to reminisce and listen, here you go! Love me some Whitney. Enjoy.
