"Realizing"




Our film: "Realizing"
Presented for the 4th International Infertility Film Festival:
Finding Out, Letting Know, Realising

Over the span of time that Mook and I have known each other, we have come to realize many special things about each other, our relationship,
and our hopes & dreams.
We realize (without a doubt) that our biggest hope and dream is:
to become parents
.

Enjoy our entry as well as others that you can find: here.

What a beautiful and hopeful tribute to your marriage and a testament to the strength you both share. I loved watching this, and the photos, the music, everything just fit together so perfectly.

I can't wait until you can add some other pictures showing the 'realizing' of your children.

JJ, This was so beautiful. What a blessed life we have. So many of us have felt what ya'll portrayed in this film. It is an inspiration to keep going, to realize our dreams. Sometimes it's hard to put these feelings into words, much less a movie. Well done.
