I want a family man for a husband. He’s someone who gets married not just for the sake of getting married, settling down, and being with the lady he loves. He gets married because he wants to start a family. He doesn’t just want to be a husband — he wants to be a father, too.

THIS IS SO CUTE. I CAN’T STOP DAWWWWING OVER BABIES. I NEED TO FIND A BABY SO I CAN RELEASE ALL THE GIGIL INSIDE OF ME. I NEED TO BITE AND PINCH A BABY RIGHT NOW.
The video from Facebook is better because you can hear the original audio where the babies were laughing, which makes it a hundred times cuter. Too bad I don’t know if it’s possible to share/post videos from Facebook.
Heartbreaking Tearjerker of the Day: WTF, Thailand? Making a grown man weep over a life insurance commercial?
Not cool, man.

Thailand, why make me cry so early in the morning? ;~;
Four-year-old Paige Bennethum really, really didn’t want her daddy to go to Iraq. So much that when Army Reservist Staff Sgt. Brett Bennethum lined up in formation at his deployment this July, she couldn’t let go. No one had the heart to pull her away.

The Saddest Commercial Ever (by crypixle)
Commercials are getting better all the time and this may be one of the most intense ones I’ve seen yet. Get your handkerchief out for this one - the story is short but very powerful and is bound to make you cry.
“My Mum died suddenly on September 4th, 2006
After she died, I realized how much she’d been shielding from my father’s mental state.
He doesn’t have alzheimers, but he has no short - term memory, and is often lost.
I took him to the funeral, but when we got home, he kept asking me every 15 minutes where my mother was. I had to explain over and over again, that she had died.
This was shocking news to him.
Why had no one told him?
Why hadn’t I taken him to the funeral?
Why hadn’t he visted her in the hospital?He had no memory of these events.
After awhile, I realized I couldn’t keep telling him that his wife had died. He didn’t remember, and it was killing both of us, to constantly re-live her death.
I decided to tell him she’d gone to Paris, to take care of her brother, who was sick.
And that’s where she is now.
This is a journal.
An ongoing record of my father, and of our relationship.
For whatever days we have left together.

Children,
Do not wait until it’s too late to thank your father for everything he did for you. While mothers provide love and care for the children, fathers express their love by working and earning to meet the family’s needs. He may not be “expressive” but the long hours he spends at work, the times when he had to stay up at night to continue working at home, the days when he scolded you for getting in trouble.. all those things tell you how much your father cares for you. Be thankful that you have a father, a strong one, that you can rely on. Someone who makes sure that food will be served at the table, someone who makes sure that nobody will hurt you.
Don’t wait until he can’t hear you anymore.
