I fav'd this video and have watched it 4 times now. I don't even know Eli, yet I feel such affection for him, and I think it has a lot to do with how you portray him.

Like your choice of music. It's sublime, and I am awed by both of you.

[maryann712]

Thanks Scott, he's an easy kid to love. Thank you so much!

[musosf]

I'm so glad this found it's way home again. And I really hope E gets to meet Ms. O in person someday.

[thebrownboysdotws]

You did it, Eli... with your own two hands! :) How special you are. We miss Ms. Ophelia, too, but I bet she'll treasure that gift for a life time.

Maryann, this video really touched me! The look on his face when he slides the bead on... Here I am sitting at work and crying! LOL Bless his socks. We love you Eli! And um, ahem, I like yellow, Eli. ;)  hahahaha

[maryann712]

Shauna this is one of those videos that gets me everytime. I took it down with the whole "partner" issue and copyrighted music. Nice that UMG has agreed to let me use it, I couldn't imagine a better song. Eli and I love you too!!
