Darby's Story

When she became pregnant at age 16, she knew she had three choices: 1) become a parent, 2) have an abortion, and 3) put the baby up for adoption.

The best moment for any filmmaker is being there for a subject's authentic, vulnerable emotional moment. When they speak what they know & their information or opinion carries weight because the full force of their experience and heart is in it, we know we have found what we are looking for.

Nan

A lot of us take this special person for granted, but this video will remind you just how irreplaceable she is.

'Nan' is a short film that shows a bond between a Nan and her Grandson. The piece looks at the things we learn from our elders that eventually are reversed and used to help them. Through this beautiful friendship, the film takes a true to life insight at how life begins and ends the same.

Johnny Agar

This athletic dad feared he’d never bond with his disabled son, but God gave them a shared love that’s bigger than any obstacle.

Born with cerebral palsy, Johnny Agar was denied the physical gifts that made his father, Jeff, a Detroit Tigers prospect in the 1980s. And then last summer, without notice, as a race unfolded, 19-year-old Johnny rose to his toughest challenge.

Dad Shocks Daughter

As baseball fans settled into their seats at BB&T Ballpark Friday night, a young girl warmed up her arm for the first pitch.

Isabella Elmore, 8, watched a message from her dad Philip, which he taped the day before in Germany. She watched him on the big screen before throwing the ball to the catcher behind home plate.

It was moments later when Isabella realized the catcher was her dad. She was noticably shocked to see him home early once Philip pulled off his mask.

The rest doesn't need words.

Mother's Day 2014

This Sunday is Mother's Day... enjoy these two videos! I love you Mom!!

Of 2.7 million people who saw a job posting by a Boston agency for a 'director of operations' position, just 24 applied. That's likely because of the brutal requirements.

 

Sometimes it’s easy to get caught up in the ordinary details of life and forget that motherhood is a miraculous and powerful institution with eternal significance. Be brave, moms. Carry on.
