    This is such a wonderful video! I teared up watching it. I was listening to the podcast where you spoke about this at the gym, and when I got home I came right to the computer to watch it. So great!!

    I just watched the video with my husband by my side. We both think you are an awesome dad. What a great idea! What a great surprise… so inspiring. Now I want to do the same for my kids who have never been to Disney World and are dying to go.

    Like I've thought from the moment I read your blog for the first time… you are so inspiring! Keep it up!
