Extreme Home Makeover = tear jerker

Well it has been a wonderful weekend (although my husband was away golfing in France & I was missing him!)
But the weather in London was lovely & I had a nice weekend - will post about it tomorrow

But for now
why is Extreme Home Makeover such a tear jerker? I was just watching an episode and ended up crying my eyes out. They were rebuilding a home for a man who had recently lost his wife and was raising 3 little girls on his own. What a great show. Too bad all the middle bits are annoying - I just watch the beginning, then tune back in when the house is actually done - they always do such an amazing job! I want that job - how fun!
