Hockey

A call from a child in the middle of a busy day at work can be awkward. But calling your father between periods during a hockey game—well, it could be embarrassing especially if the request is for a bedtime nursery rhyme. Our father in this case obliges his young daughter. A moment made even more charming by the great song "Do You Believe In Magic" underscoring the fact that love isn't always convenient, but is appreciated forever. Love... Pass It On.

This is one of my favorite commercials. I think it's incredibly sweet the way the father takes a moment to sing to his daughter, it just shows how much he loves his little girl.
