Quite Possibly the Cutest Video Ever
I'm sorry, but I had to steal this video from a blog called I Am Beautiful, I Am Woman (which, by the way, is written by a 15-year-old feminist!). Is it just me, or should we all have this type of confidence, gratitude and hunger for life? I plan to start my "daily affirmation" regiment tomorrow.

"We Will Remember" (A Video Tribute to My Dad)
It might not seem like it, but this video took me hours to finish. It's a tribute to my dad who passed away last month. It's a celebration of his life, and it makes me smile and cry every time I watch it. Love ya, Dad.
