I understand what you mean about normally being strong & not being able to hold it in. I am normally one to hide my feelings as well. I try to never cry infront of my kids esp. but there have been a few times over the past 5 yrs that I just couldn't take it. We all have the time in life when we feel like we can't take it anymore & it doesn't make you weaker to cry. It just helps get it out so you can continue pushing on.
