Unique Connection is a film clip that illustrates something we all know: that the bond between mother and child runs deep. What then makes this video so heartwarming? It’s the fact that we don’t need words to understand what we see here.
It’s the simple, beautiful truth we see with our eyes and understand with our hearts.
Set to soft sweet music, the viewer sees with her own eyes, that unique connection between mother and child. It’s a love that sets roots so deep that a child can pick her mother out of a line-up, blindfolded.
What a lovely way to bring home a simple and beautiful truth.
I couldn’t help but wonder if my children would pick me out of a row of many mothers, sight unseen. I’d like to think they would.
I think it would be delicious fun to set up a get-together of mother and children and see if these touching results could be duplicated. The hostess would need to have a lot of tissues on hand!
The Unique Connection
From the youtube caption:
As a small experiment of women’s uniqueness and the special bond between a mother and child, we met up with 6 wonderful women, and asked them to let us blindfold their most precious loved ones. Their children!
How we did it:
The children were guided towards the group of women, and using their senses and intuition asked to try to find the one they believed to be their mother. Anxiety, love and a bit of heartfelt tears filled the room as children from the age of 3-9 tried and succeed in finding the one and only they could call mum!
All women are unique in shape, personality and heart, and so is the beautiful connection and precious love we saw this day.
Celebrate the woman in your heart

I love the gentle, loving way these children cradled their mothers’ faces, with their small delicate fingers. Just so beautiful!
Would your blindfolded child choose you?
