Every woman is unique.
That's the premise of the latest made-you-cry video in which six moms stand in a Usual Suspects style line-up while their blindfolded children are tasked with picking out the woman who brought them into the world.
As hardened as we think we are to ads, I defy you to stay dry-eyed at this touching effort by Pandora Jewelry.

The bond we share with our children is second to none. What's fascinating is how each child intuitively feels his or her way through touch and smell alone to the only one on earth who belongs to them, and the distinct way each mom-child has of greeting and embracing each other. Instinctive, I guess.
This video reminds me of how lucky I am to have a son who is affectionate, constantly wanting to cuddle, play with my hair and touch my face and eyes, and of how precious that time spent with him is.
(As for the day when he won't want to curl into my lap or hold my hand as we walk down the street... Don't even go there. I'm in total denial.)
I can only hope that my husband would pick me out of a lineup so blindly!
Watch, weep, and share.
