Someone posted a video link on Facebook of "Mary Did You Know" about a month ago, and I stared at my computer moniter with tears streaming down my cheeks. I don't know why this year, but the song's not "speaking" to me, it's beating me over the head. Maybe because this Christmas, I am watching my first baby morph into her own little person - she's still some of me and some of my husband, all blended together, but she's her own person. It's amazing. It's miraculous. And this Christmas, I'm holding another baby - and have a better idea of what is ahead for us. It's overwhelming.
Merry Christmas, blog readers. Merry Christmas.

I completely lose it about 2 minutes in on your top link, when Christ falls while carrying his own cross, and she is reliving the time when Jesus was a tot and fell, and she's stumbling and running to help him... but of course she can't help this time.
*nods in agreement*
I think that was the point where my breath started catching.
