Falling for Commercial Advertising

I'm usually not one to fall for commercial advertising.  I think of the old computer game Lemmings when it comes to advertising.  I do however sometimes fall right inline with Lemmings when it comes to late night burger commercials on the weekend.  I can hear my arteries clogging.

I did get the change to see a commercial that sort of stuck with me.  It came from an unlikely source.  It was a commercial for a browser on your computer.  Odd huh?  I know.  But it is a really nice commercial.

Yes, that stuck with me and it was probably an emotional response which the ad was designed for.  But I did set up emails with my birthday for all three of my kids.  Ever since the birth of our third baby 2 weeks ago I have been emailing messages, videos and pictures to the kids trying to express how I feel and what is happening.  Cheesy I know, but it is late at night and that was my late night confession.

Geez, Blake. That's the second chrome commercial that had me crying. I'm such a baby. But, in all seriousness, what an amazing gift to your children! I'm glad you are doing one for all of them!
