I Fell In Love With This Valentine’s Day Commercial

Have you seen this commercial? Okay, I’m not being sponsored by KMart, I just fell in love with this commercial. It really stirred up a lot of memories about the relationship my two sons had with their Grandmas. My sons worshiped their Grandmas. My oldest son had the most time with two grandmas, both of them gone now. My sons were 16 and 8 when my mom and mother in law passed away within a few weeks of each other, my daughter was just about to have her first birthday. Sadly, she’ll never know the joy of having a Grandma. She’ll never feel that love that only a grandma can give. Maybe that’s why I adored this commercial. My sons had that joy, that love. Seeing this commercial helped me to remember the love they had for each other and just how special it was….
You see, although some people do not “get into” Valentine’s Day and think it’s just another marketed holiday. I cannot help but celebrate Love, on Valentine’s Day, on any day. My life has changed and it’s different without my mom and mother in law around. When I saw this commercial it made me happy, it hit me in the heart that my sons had that chance to love their grandmas, to share special memories with them. So, if you are a boymom, I’m sure you will love this commercial.
Happy Valentine’s Day! Do you have a special memory with your Grandparents? I lived far away from my grandparents and could not wait to visit them. Most times it was a once or twice a year visit. We created a lot of memories. I loved how my grandparents would make such a Big fuss when I can in to visit!

It’s a great commercial. I wish I had known my grandparents but they passed away before I came to be me. I guess that’s why I try to be the best grandma I can possibly be. I’m making memories.
That is very cute.. i wish my kids would be able to do this.. too bad they can’t
Aww. I see why you fell in love with it! Its so sweet
What a cute video! OMG, all the feels!
Awww, that is such a sweet video! It actually made me tear up because I think of my grandma!

What a great commercial. That’s one thing I miss about cable all the clever and good commercials! I can see why you like it!
My kids adore their grandparents. What a great commercial.
I agree that this holiday is extremely commercialized. But you hit the nail on the heat…who can resist celebrating love.

That was soooo sweet. Glad you shared, I hadn’t seen it.
You are right about this video – it is soooo sweet and wonderful – in a perfect world, right? Happy Valentine’s 🙂
This is such a cute commercial. I would love it if my kids did this for me.
Oh wow, that commercial totally brought me to tears! I hope my son and I have that special kind of relationship when he is older. =)
The holiday is over commercialized. Another Hallmark day celebrating something that doesn’t need just one day to celebrate. Still, the commercial is very cute. Thank you for sharing.
omg this really is a great commercial!!!! Definitely a cutie 😉
It’s nice to find a really good commercial. This was an awesome share.
Definitely an awesome commercial! It’s so relatable and I’m sure many moms were tearing up watching this.
My grandfather died really young so don’t remember him too much. Thanks for sharing this video.
Ohh seems like a good one. I love a great Vday commercial – I totally love it myself.
I’ve never seen this video but I love it! Thank you for sharing.
The relationship between my wife and our granddaughter is amazing. I did not have grandparents when I grew up, they were all dead by then, so I had no knowledge of the love between them. Yes this is a great commercial.
This is such a sweet commercial and message. I hope you had a great Valentine’s Day this past week!
I just finally saw that on Friday and it’s absolutely touching. It’s nice to see when kids are getting more involved in their grandparents lives.
My parents were older when I was born and consequently, I never knew either of my grandmothers. I feel like I missed a whole portion of my life because of it.
I’m not familiar with it at all, but I can see why it pulls the heart strings. Very sweet.
Yes, this commercial is adorable and I’m glad that Kmart showed the reality to some children during this Holiday season.
I don’t have any special Valentine’s Day memories with my grandparents, but I have tons with my parents. My dad always gave me flowers and it made me feel so special.
I’ve never seen that commercial yet. I have special memories with my grandparents but they weren’t Valentine’s Day memories. Now I am nostalgic. My grandparents were all gone.
Such a sweet ad, I wish as much thought was put into ads here in Ireland. My little one loves his granda, it’s the sweetest thing.
