the Blind side


Another night watching a movie with red wine.... Tonight the movie is the Blind Side.

It's talking about a rich white woman adopted a black kid who has nowhere to stay and no future at all based on a true story.
However, while watching the movie, I feel touched not only for the kindness of the Mother but mostly for the love between the white couple.

Sandra Block is the Mother in the movie. She is a tough woman who gets what she wants no matter how hard it could be or how difficult it could be.
Her husband is the owner of a chain Taco store in USA. He loves her and supports her no matter what she wants to do.
The most touching part in the movie... well for me anyways is....
While she is thinking about to adopt the kid....
husband: I mean the kid we barly know.     wife: That's another thing. We need to find out more about his past.     husband: He won't talk about it. He's like an onion,     you have to peel him back a layer at a time.     wife: Not if you use a knife.     What if we took him to a child psychologist or something?     husband: Do you really expect Big Mike---
wife: "Michael"     husband: You really expect Michael to lie down on a coach and talk about his childhood     like he's Woody Allen or something?     wife: I mean, Michael's gift is his ability to forget.     husband: He's mad at no one and he really didn't care what happened in the past.     wife: You're right.     husband: Excuse me? "You're right?" How'd those words taste coming out of your mouth?     wife: Like vinegar. At least promise me you'll think about it.     husband: Alright.     wife: "Alright" you'll think about it or "alright" we should do it?     husband: Is there a difference?

And then, they adopted the kid... :)
It makes me feel that how lucky it is to be loved and understood and supported by your husband.
