A Heartwarming Crest Holiday Video

Thank you Crest for sponsoring this post. As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

There are so many great things about the holiday season: the music, the decorations the celebrations. Perhaps the greatest part is the inherent spirit of giving that accompanies it and the ability to make someone’s wishes come true. We always tell Kai that there is magic in the air during Christmas and that is exactly what Crest was able to do this holiday season. If you are looking for a little inspiration, a little heartwarming cheer, today’s story is for you! In partnership with Wish of a Lifetime, a non-profit organization that grants wishes for seniors, Crest made one lucky lady’s dream a reality. Bertha Nunn who is now 86 years young, spent the majority of her adult life providing for her family by working as a corrections officer and teacher’s assistant. As most of us raising families can relate, this meant that her passion had to be put on the back burner for the greater good of her family. Bertha’s dream was  to act in a national TV commercial. Crest helped fulfill Bertha’s wish by casting her in the leading role in her very own holiday commercial. 

Watching the video on Bertha’s story left me feeling inspired in many ways. I can’t help but admire this sweet lady’s perseverance and the way she tended to the needs of her family long before thinking of herself. It’s a self-sacrifice that many of us with families can relate to. The video also reminded me that the best gifts of all are those that are given without the expectation of reciprocation, and the ripple effect of kindness that it can create. This further instilled the importance I place in teaching my children the joy of giving! While it’s always nice to receive a gift, the happiness that comes with giving a gift is infinite!

You HAVE TO watch this amazing heartwarming story! Go ahead, send it to all your friends and family and spread a little holiday warmth and let them know Christmas is magical and it’s never too late to pursue their dreams.

I just love that Crest, a company we have supported and used for years gave Bertha this opportunity! As the official toothpaste of Santa Claus, Crest is sure giving everyone a lot to smile about this holiday season! Look for Bertha, with Santa and Crest, this holiday season on your TV screen! After viewing please share her journey and share a smile this holiday!
