- **NEW FATHER'S DAY FILM- • Father's Day Short Fil...
To celebrate Mother's Day, Jaycie and I set out to create a short film based on a children's book that impacted my life in a very personal way. By the amazing comments we've seen, we aren't alone either. The book "Love You Forever" is the story of a Mother's love for her son as he progresses through life, and we sought to make a modern interpretation of the wonderful themes inside the book.
This short film comes from the bottom of my heart. It's inspired by a book from my childhood, Love You Forever written by Robert Munsch and illustrated by Sheila McGraw, and is dedicated to my mother Ali and Jaycie's mother Charissa.
Starring:
Keaton Haskell
Katie Jones
Carol Anderson
Camden Harwood
Rylan Harwood
Christopher Huber
Cooper Ursenbach
Addie Manapat
Jaycie Haskell
Adapted and created by me, Kim Haskell with the support of my loving wife, Jaycie.
Special thanks:
Katie Hassard and Love Light Solar for helping to bring light into this project
Kelly Haskell for baby wrangling and production assisting
My friends at St. Lukes for their support
Kennedy and Gage Manapat for lending their facilities and baby
Lexii Birch Ursenbach for donating a baby
Charissa Birch for lending us their home for yet another video ;)

Hi... I'm Sheila McGraw, the illustrator of Love You Forever. I was just surfing and came across your film, and it made me weep, just as the book still does -- timeless. You have captured the book's premise perfectly. Love it!
I can't even believe this reached you, we are just floored! Your endorsement is the best complement we could possibly receive. You've touched the lives of my family and the families of millions around the world, thank you so much. It's been a literal dream to somehow have you and Robert see it. Any idea how we could share it with him too?
Sheila~ Thank you so very much for your contribution to this darling little book! It is an ABSOLUTELY touching story and its words and illustrations give it that allure and enchanting quality. Your pictures ... in particular ... are what make it such a touching & heartwarming story, they just give it that special touch. And (in my opinion) without your participation in the creation of this book, it just wouldn't be as meaningful. I must have read your book to my 4 older children dozens and dozens of times when they were babies & until they were at an age where kids just lose interest in being read bedtime stories. You are an extraordinarily talented and adept artist & (in MY opinion) extremely unthanked & trivialized. I would LOVE to see some new children's literature containing some of your work!!!! There are so many of us who would still appreciate your beautiful pictures to go along with more of these meaningful stories, so please know that we are very aware of the dedication and perseverance that go into doing these enchanting little story books.
Sincerely• one of your BIGGEST fans. ♥️
"I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always.
As long as I'm living,
my baby you'll be."
-One of my most favorite parts of the book, besides the picture of the son holding his OWN baby & telling him that he'll love him forever.... you TRULY are an absolutely BRILLIANT artist!!🥰
awesome
I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, forever and ever, my baby you'll be ❤. All 7 of my children have a copy of your book with their baby books. I first heard it read by a nursing home administrator (not a dry eye in the room). The love always comes out and brings tears to my eyes. Thank you.
💖💖. Hey 👋
I’ve watched this 5 times n I’m still balling my eyes out n sent this to my son . I wished to God that I had another him but I’m grateful to have him now n today is his birthday to .. happy birthday pa , mami will forever love you
Your a good mom
Like so many others, this sweet touching story has me with tears streaming along my cheeks. Oh wow ... He continued with his own I'll love you forever. So true even with all the bumps along the road & I'll continue to love mine from beyond.
I had forgotten all about this video. It just came up on my UA-cam screen. I do believe that my son Zack wanted me to find it today❤️
I longed for my mother to say this. This made me cry.
I haven't cried like this in a very long time
I’ll love you forever I’ll like you for always as long as I’m living my baby you’ll be. Definitely inspired by that story ❤
I bawled my eyes out watching this.The love of a Mother is the powerful force ever. ..It transcends generations.
I love you forever I like you for always as long as I'm living my baby you'll be
So moving. On this Mother’s Day 2024 this video made me remember my precious mother who no longer is with us. Thank you.
WOW that was so powerful,it deserves a million 😢. We must cherish the ones we love and “ LOVE THEM FOREVER “
I cried like a few minutes after I started watching it and haven't stopped. It's something certainly to remember.
This film is well made. I lost my Mom in 2018, still miss her till this day....Happy Mother's Day Mom.
This truly pulled at my heartstrings! Tears flowing alongside the memories I hold dear to my heart of my wonderful Mother. ❤
For 2 weeks, I continuously read this book to my Mom while she was dying. This book touches your heart.
So nice of you to do that for your Mom.
Hello
Lost my Mom suddenly in Aug 2019. Never forget the phone call. Will also never forget her smile and her laugh that would fill the room. Mom, you brought so much joy to so many, and taught me to do the same. Happy Mothers Day, and I will Love you Forever. Thank you for this.
I lost my mom a month ago after 93 years of life with her. This made me cry....
So touching. Take the wonderful person she was, and try to pass it down as best you can. You won’t be perfect, but a mother’s love has the power to transcend a single lifetime
I gave my children this little book when they were little. My son gave this to me for Mother’s Day. Oh my the tears❤️❤️💧💧💧💧💧💧❤️❤️
❤ Robert Munch for giving the tender tale to the world and thank you to the creators of this lovely short film. 💕💕💕🇨🇦
My best friend and I had baby boys one year apart almost 40 years ago. We would read this book to our sons and just weep. I have gifted this book to every acquaintance who has welcomed a baby boy.
I can't stop crying 😭. Beautiful. How about We celebrate mother's day, every day , not just once a year. 🧡💐
I Love It A Lot
I bought each of my 3 son's this book (well my eldest was given one by my friend when he was around 3. He just turned 35 2 days ago. I kept it in one of my drawers all these years. And had 2 more son's. It's so weird i came across them last week and pulled them out. I want to write something in each of them. This film reminds me of my youngest he's 26 now married and 3 little one's ofhis own. Made me cry!!!! 😭 unconditional love ...as long as I'm living my babies they'll be....
That is so touching. Loved reading this
I love my mother so much. She means the world to me.
It is really beautiful to know that there is someone who is going to love you sacrifice for you and protect you unconditionally ❤️
Thanks mom for everything you did for me, I know I am not the perfect son but believe me whenever I try to do something I always think of you, you deserve all the best and I won't stop trying to make you proud of me.
Lost my mom a few years ago, and this movie really described her. I miss my mom and she always conveyed her love forever.
I miss my Mom to she was pretty wonderful
Absolutely beautiful....omgoodness the tears!
💖💖. Hey 👋
I’ll Love You Forever holds a very special place in my ❤. It’s the story I read to my children , and it was very special to my oldest son Zack. Each of them had their own copy. Zack died when he was 19, and we buried his book with him. I’ll love you forever is written on his tombstone. This short movie made me cry of course, but they were good tears. I think Zack wanted me to find it on UA-cam. Happy Mother’s Day to all moms , and especially those moms who are missing their child today and always💕
God bless you EllaMarie !
Oh my gosh, that is such a beautiful story. I’m so sorry for you loss. The fact that he was so attached to that book says everything about how much he loved you. I have no doubt we made this story for you. Thank you for sharing ❤️
Oh my goodness I am so sorry for your loss 😢 Sending you love and prayers 🙏❤
💖💖. Hey 👋
This made me cry , it made me think of my mom and how much I love her and how much she's done for me in all my 40 years.
I feel the exact same way
Hello Laura,, that's nice to hear from you
Is this your favorite song ?
@@hectorleon5100 😢❤
SWEET!! To all the Moms out there - HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY - Loving them forever is a default that is installed once we give birth, & all we know how to do - (even through those darn teen years - Hang in there, it gets better ... Sometimes even more entertaining, sometimes more relaxing, but they are in a different world from us, so let them be themselves and find out what works best. Before (tooooo) long, they'll know what we know today "Mom did know before we did, but we had to find out like she did" - !?) Namaste from USA.
That’s one way to make me sob like a baby. 😭
Tears.....this is absolutely beautiful.

Happy mother's day's to
All caring and loving mothers..
Keep your faith Active at all
Times and don't let evil
creep in...
🌬💞💞💞💞💞💞🙌🙌
Lol now and days
Nothing surprises me.
People change when life
Is not valuable to them.
Mary, Mark, James.... I will love you forever..
Only a mother could appreciate this. To my children I will love you forever ❤️💙❤️❤️. Unconditional love. Tell me there's something better than love, it makes everything worth it.
Thank you for the heart and happy mother's Day to every mom around the world .
I can´t understand how can 19 people put thumb down with such a masterpiece; what´s wrong with the world? It made cry for real. Beautiful!
Probably they have toxic parents... So they don't understand what true love is
Maybe, they don't have a good relationship with their mother?
End times cold hearts
@@virtueq thank you for that. Just want to say I just now watched and didn’t put my thumb down. But I did not cry. I had to learn from Gods love to me how to be a good mother to my son !! My childhood and into adulthood years as well were so bad that God made it so I’d disappear into my mind to a safe place and return when the yelling had stopped. And that is just the “ tip” of the iceberg …. So to speak. All I can say is my son and me are living breathing testimony of Gods miracles🤗
@@francinemattson6442 So glad you have a great relationship with your son. God bless you both 🙏🏽
A mother's love to her offspring (s) is, forever...😊
Thank u for such a profound and meaningful short story about a mother's love...
This video reminds me of my late mum even when she was about to die she told me and my brother I love you 😢I miss her so much she died 5 years ago
Who else kept watching it over and over again Because it was fantastic?
So glad you like it that much :)
This is so touching. I really teared up and want to call my mom right away. This short film re-emphasizes how precious life is between parent and child, specifically a mother, and what a beautiful ripple affect a mother’s tender love can have for later generations. Thank you.
Oh my heart........I love u forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living my baby you'll be
A generation apart, but never inseparable, to ALL the Mother's out there. Happy Mother's Day. Loved this short film.
That was beautiful.
💖💖. Hey 👋
I dedicated my life to mums and this made me so sad,. mums are the future... this was meaningful
last part make me Cry..
I Love My Mum..I'll love her forever In Sha Allah..

Beautiful 💗. Watching this video made me cry. I read this book to my sons years ago. I gave this book to my sons when they became Dads. “I’ll love you forever, I’ll like you for always, as long as I’m living my baby you’ll be” 💕
Mothers day isn't always a great day for everyone. To those who struggle on this day you're seen.
This is my first mothers day not wishing mine a happy mothers day. Not through her passing but my choice. It's still difficult but it's for the best. Sometimes we can wish a happy mothers day to those who have been like actual mothers to us.
Doesn't make it any less difficult though.
Stay strong ❤ day you are seen.
My teacher played this on our projectile at school.. and man me and my friends all cried hard. So hard infact that kids from other grades came to us
Wow, that's so sweet to hear. Tell your teacher thanks for sharing it!
This was 😢absolutely a beautiful film. A mother’s love is forever. I lost my mom in 2014 and I will cherish our love and friendship forever
💖💖. Hey 👋
Lost ,my Mama & best friend on a friday, the same day I was born 54 years later. The world for me turned dark and cold and empty. The pain will subside, once day, I know, but since its presence keeps us together I m holding on to it as I once held her ILY mama
I like at the end when he picks up his baby. ^____^
The tradition continues. ^___^
I'm not crying!! You're crying! 🥺🥺
This video made me cry I lost her mom and February of this year. She had Alzheimer's and slash dementia and sepsis. I know my mom's in a better place. But I will always love her forever. May everyone's mother be here or in heaven you'll never get another one. My mom was my best friend I'll never have another one like her. I love you Mama rest in peace
💖💖. Hey 👋
@@herryburr06 hi
@@susanschillo5330 Hello I hope you are doing good,I'm Herry from Minnesota USA and I saw your comment on UA-cam and I decided to say hello. I hope I haven't invaded your privacy
@Herry Burr you're fine just waking up work time.

Wow, que manera de hacernos llorar, sin palabras, con una sola frase y escenas que llegan al corazón...gracias, gracias!!
Every Embrace With My Mother I Absolutely Felt Her Love Flowing Into My Heart....She Loved A Cuddle.......And So Did I.....Thanks Mum....God Bless You.
I cried the first time I saw it. It was 10 minutes ago. And I'm crying again... Beautiful message!! Thanks a lot! Happy Mother's Day to all the Mommies!!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY
My mother read this book to me when I was a kid. Now I have a daughter and another baby on the way... I can’t get more than halfway through the book without SOBBING. No one warned me about the feels
Yeah, I bought the book for my wife and made the mistake of reading it to her. We were both a mess. Definitely didn't appreciate the message until I grew up!
I can hardly make it through this wonderful video with getting choked up. Whenever I read this book to my children and grandchildren they always get concerned because I have to stop often and collect my emotions. Thank you so much, both of you, for the sharing of your talents for the world to be touched. Beautiful, simply beautiful. ❤
So glad you liked it, the book has a special place in my heart too
This has always been one of my most favorite books of all time. And when my daughter was born back in 2013, my little sister had gotten this book for me to read to her growing up. Unfortunately, we no longer have it due to me losing my storage unit. But I still remember this book word from word & will still tell it to my daughter, (who is now 10 btw). This story has always made me cry. They are always a mixture of happy tears, sad tears, & tears of joy & feeling blessed beyond the universe. But watching this short film about this book has given the book itself a whole new meaning to me now. It has reminded me to always make sure that my daughter knows just how much I lobe her & how much she means to me. We need to cherish the time we have together bc you never know just how much time that will be. I recently lost my momma back on July 25, 2023 due to kidney failure. It was very unexpected & happened so very fast. None of us knew how to accept any of it. We still haven't fully accepted that she isn't here anymore though. But the ending of this short film has got me all up in my feelings right now & appreciate life a little more again. Thank you to all those involved in the making of the short film as well as the author & illustrator of the book itself. And if you still have your mother here on earth with you, please call & remind her just how much she means to you & how much you love her. And if you have kids, please d the same asap. We aren't on this earth forever & you also don't know how much the other person just might need to hear those words coming from the one that they love the most.
Thank you so much for sharing this. The love of one good mother has the power to change the world.
a LEGACY OF LOVE..❤❤❤❤❤
My mother never gave up on me and I never gave up on her. The eternal love all mothers send us helps us to discover ourselves. I was closer to my adopted cousin than I was to my relatives and we had a large extended family. My aunt and uncle, who had no other children, learned much about the Collective Soul that we are a part of through the love they shared with my cousin, Maryjo. Orphans are special teachers of humanity and should be loved as teachers.
I'LL LOVE YOU 4 EVER & EVER MOM
Wow...the love of a mom is forever
This made me cry I lost my mom at 53 years young to copd two years ago and the pain still feels like it was yesterday. Three months later that same year my fiancé passed away on mother's day. This day every year is about celebrating the life of my mother and everything she did for my family. At the same time my heart is torn because I lost my first love of 15 years. My life will never be the same again 😭😭😭
Beautiful reflexion on the circle of life. We must treasure every instant, every second we are alive...what a different world it would be, don't you think ?
My mother passed away nearly 4 years ago. She would read me the book this short film is based on, and would cry sometimes when she did so. As a kid, I did not fully understand why she would. But as an adult now, with 3 kids and a 4th on the way, I understand. The love I have for my kids is the same love my mother had for me.
I love you mom, and miss you so much. You are the reason I am the person I am today. And hope I make you proud still.
God bless you!
@@cameronfamtube5992 yes god bless you deeply
This made me cry for my mom too, but I am only 13. Wow
So touching. I recently lost my mom. This is the love my siblings and I had. I will love you forever until we meet again in Heaven.
Beautiful film. I will love my amazing mother forever. I have no children my son died at birth, but I will love him forever. Thank you for this heart felt video.
I'll love you forever
I'll like you for always
As long as I'm living
My baby you'll be.
How is this video not going viral?!!Its just perfect.Just the thing for someone who lacks words for Mother's Day.
MOTHER THANK YOU GOT EVRETING I LOVE YOU FOREVER NATASA 🤗🤗🤗
Was looking for something sweet to share with my mom before I called her to wish her Happy Mother’s Day this morning. This popped up and I watched. Now I’m crying so hard I’m going to have to wait a few mins to call my mom. Beautiful ♥️. Very well done!

Oh. My. Heart. I read this story to my sons nightly, for years. Thank you so, SO much for making this video. They are 28,24 & 21 now. I am so proud of the men they have become.
You did a REALLY GREAT JOB. 💖👏
Hello Margaret,, that's nice to hear from you

I cried after her son says: *I'll love you forever..*
There are no words to describe how this made me feel and how much I love my mother, and I turn 14 in 2 days
This video make me cry, this is so touching, beautiful.
My favorite book of all time. I read it to my daughter as a child. She's 30 now & is my heart. Thank you!❤
Thank you, so much, for making this film. Haven't cried so joyously in a while and just sent it to my mother, as well as my daughter, and we all cried together. A mother's love is beyond words, but this video sure comes close!
Thank you so much for sharing- this a beautifully made video! My mom and I watched it together and we both cried, lol! Again, thank you so much, it truly was and is appreciated.
Oh my goodness... you had me bawling. Well done, and thankyou. ❤🫂❤💐
This is one of my FAVORITE children's books! Thank you, in the blink of an eye, that time is gone and you can never get it back.
Too beautiful. Had to grab a tissue cause I laughed then I blubbered. I don't cry pretty like some do, because when I cry it's straight from my heart. Thanks for a blubbering I needed just now.🙏💖
I just wish all the kids could understand their mother love including my kids
Very touching video. Happy Mother's day to all Mother's out there.
This had me sobbing. Such a beautiful depiction of the book. I read this to my children by heart almost nightly. This touched my heart. Thank you for this! ❤
You are so welcome, thank you for watching
I cried when I read this book to my son I tell him every day that I will always love him this book is so sweet and adorable and sad
Sobbing. Thank you for this Joy and my tears and open heart wish you the most incredible Mother's day, every moment of ever new and divine day.
This so reminded me of my mom and when she passed years ago....I'll Love You Forever Mom....thank you for putting this together... I recommend you have tissue when watching this i am still bawling my eyes out lol.
This is actually awesome! It made me teared up. With just few words (I'll love you forever), BG music, and the story line itself is impactful. Not to mention the artists where not as popular but yet the way they deliver their roles and facial expressions is really amazing! Salute to the artists and the creator of this short film! Wait, I just hugged my Mom so tight. 💞 Thank you for this, it's wonderful! May God bless you, your family and the works of your hands abundantly. 💖
P.S.
More, more, more short films like this, please! 😊
😭😢😭😢I cried .it's really very buitaful relationship.
Very touching and so true...pay attention to your moments...they’ll turn into memories...my mama loved us kids just like this always there for us hugging on us cheering us on and those special “I love you’s “ and now we’ve passed it on to our kids...♥️ Thank you for a beautiful reminder...the circle of life...love ...lives on in all of us...what a beautiful legacy to leave behind♥️♥️
