Last night after i was done with my blogging i crawled into bed just when husband said i was right in time. He was watching this movie,i glanced at the screen and knew right away what movie was on.

It was I AM SAM. Shawn Penn as Sam,and Dakota Fanning as Lucy. A story of a Man with a mental capacity that of a 7 yr old. His struggles on raising a little girl on his own and the connection between a father and a child.This movie is a tear jerker,i could not help but cry watching while holding my husbands hand. It was like looking at my husband and kayla.I felt all the emotions and i really connected with all the character.Shawn Penn outdid himself in this movie, he was brilliant, Dakota was such a little charmer in this movie and i couldnt help but fall in love with her.

When it was almost over husband wiped my tears and whispered to me

“Now, you know how i feel when kayla was taken from me and why our bond is so strong”

I just nodded my head and kept on teary up.Like what Sam said all you need is LOVE. If only we see life through Sam it would be much easier.And it was true when he said that being a good parent is being patient,understanding and love.It matters not the difference of the mind but what counts is what is in our hearts.That is the most basic yet the most important lesson and gift we can give to our children.
