People often believe how celebrities have it all done for them and how they have it easy in life only because they are rich. But we all know too well that money can’t buy everything. 

This has to be the message Mike Fisher wanted to send to his and his wife’s fans out there. Recently, he took it to Instagram to share with the world how the couple felt and what they had to go through before the birth of their second child, Jacob Bryan. 

The former hockey player spoke about their heartbreak and all the moments spent in anticipation which is just another proof that these people are not that much different than us.

Posting a sweet photo of him and his baby boy snuggling together he wrote:

“Jacob Bryan Fisher! You are a gift from our Lord! The last few years has had its challenges and it makes this moment even more sweet!”

The couple wanted this baby so badly that they are now over the moon having him in their arms, but they are well aware that it was a rough path they had to undergo before this joyous moment took place. 

“We didn’t know if Izzy would ever have another sibling but we learned through it all that God is in control and his timing is perfect! He is good all the time even in the difficult times that are hard to understand.”

Izzy, or Isaiah Michael, is Mike and Carrie’s firstborn son, who is now three and a half years old.

Carrie openly spoke about her miscarriages between 2017 and 2018. The couple was fighting the battle against infertility and it wasn’t an easy one. In an interview with CBS Sunday, the country music star reacted to their hurdles saying how she was truly blessed, despite all the struggles they faced. 

“My son, Isaiah, is the sweetest thing. And he’s the best thing in the world. And I’m like, ‘If we can never have any other kids, that’s okay, because he’s amazing.'”

Having a caring husband, a lovely child, and being surrounded with so many people who were by her side all along, the 35-year-old wife and a mom said how there wasn’t anything she should be mad about. Her life was complete, despite her wish of having another child seemed to be out of reach.

During the period of agony, Carrie experienced another pain. In November 2017 she had an accident in their Nashville, Tennessee home after she took a tumble on the steps. She broke her wrist and had to undergo a surgery. But she also got stitches on her face. 

When she started feeling things were just going downhill, she suddenly realized that’s how life works. You simply experience ups and downs and now she just had to wait for that period to pass knowing good things are just around the corner. 

And she was right. At the end, they have their bundle of joy in their lives and everything seems just right. The Grammy winner wrote:

“Jacob Bryan Fisher entered the world in the wee hours of the morning on Monday … his mom, dad and big brother couldn’t be happier for God to trust them with taking care of this little miracle! Our hearts are full, our eyes are tired and our lives are forever changed. Life is good…”

Congratulations on your new baby Carrie and Mark, we hope your life will only bring great things along the way. 

Flower Girl Dances For The Crowd But When The Song Changes They Lose It

Another wedding reception you got invited to? That means having to choose some classy outfit, spend some money on a carefully picked gift, and get ready to celebrate the love between two people who will hopefully spend the rest of their lives together. And yes, have some fun along the way. 

If this is what a typical wedding looks like, than the one from the video below is everything but ordinary all thanks to the cheeky flower girl who stole the show. 

We haven’t seen someone so young being so confident in their dancing skills in a long time. This dance routine is definitely one to remember. 

Not only this sweetie took the dance floor, but she totally owned it. All eyes were on her when she started moving along the rhythm of Justin Bieber’s “Baby” and even rocked some lasso moves that were a clear sign of a great show. 

One of the guests thought it would be nice if he joins this little firecracker, but he soon regretted his decision as the flower girl totally ignored him. Her wiggling around the dance floor meant she wasn’t into dancing with a partner. This girl was born to solo! 

As the song came to an end everyone expected from her to take her way to her parents as she was obviously pretty exhausted, but she wasn’t ready to leave the dance floor just yet, especially not now when her favorite song was on. 

PSY’s “Gangnam Style” could be heard filling the air and it meant more fun. Doing the iconic moves that shook the world right after the song was first released, the girl put even bigger smile on everyone’s face. Her vigorous steps teared up the dance floor and she put so much energy into what she was doing that her pink bow came undone. 

People were so into this little’s girl show that they even forgot who this reception was all for. Everyone was cheering loudly and had their phones out because this isn’t something we get to see that often. It just had to be put on tape.

We are sure the bride and the groom were glad this flower girl made their wedding so special. 

You definitely don’t want to miss this hilariously sweet performance. 

Restaurant owner who received daeth threats over anti-Brexit message on receipts won’t remove them

Restaurant owner Ibrahim Dogus took a photograph of the anti-Brexit message printed on a receipt at Westminster Kitchen (Ibrahim Dogus)

Following the referendum about UK separating from the European Union, the Brexit has divided the British into remain-supporters and leave-voters. And now with the Prime minister Teresa May’s party’s Brexit deal being turned down by the majority of the parliament members, the country has fallen into deeper political uncertainty.

Unfortunately, this led to the country’s citizens getting into arguments defending their views of why it’s better to remain part of the Union, and why should the country leave. 

A Londoner who is a restaurant owner decided to share his political views in an unusual way, by writing them down on the place’s receipts. The message he wants to send his customers is that the Brexit is not a great idea, and he even elaborates his reasons. 

The message says:

“Brexit is bad. Immigrants make Britain great. They also cooked and served your food today.”

However, Ibrahim Dogus claims that ever since he opted to express himself regarding the political situation this way, he and the Westminster Kitchen’s staff are getting death threats by those opposing his beliefs. 

Dogus tells The Independent:

“We have been targeted by far right groups who are organised on social media and [it seems like they have been] encouraging each other to attack our business by leaving fake reviews on TripAdvisor, Google Business, and Facebook.”

This owner, whatsoever, is not planning on removing the message despite the phone calls he’s getting.

“The message will stay on the bills until 1 February and then we will replace [it] with a different message,” he says.

“I believe love will win over hate and those who are trying to disguise their racism as political activism are once again caught out.”

The problem is, as he states, that no matter that he’s not afraid, his employees “have been worried about threats of violence and abuse.”

“It has been a horrible few days and our staff feel worried about what’s happening.”

Dogus also accuses people for leaving negative comments on his restaurant’s site. 

“Why are they bringing politics into their food business?” one wrote.

“I do hope that 52 per cent of their customers decide to no longer give them their business,” he added,

which is the percentage of UK voters who voted to leave the European Union.

Fearing for his staff’s safety, this owner contacted the police and reported those threatening them. He hopes they’ll make sure everyone stays safe. 

“Our manager, Maliq Konjuhi, said that he is worried that someone will come and physically attack our premises,” he adds.

Do you believe Dogus choose the right way to express his thoughts on the matter, or he should have kept his business out of politics? What is your opinion?

Professor responds to a single mom missing class

Being a mom means having a lot on your plate, and as if raising children isn’t enough tiring and demanding by itself, being a student on top of that is definitely hard. 21-year-old Morgan King is a mother who attends university. Needless to say, she often has to miss classes and skip doing assignments because of her baby daughter. And as many teachers out there are not that considerate regarding their students’ excuses, this particular professor is unlike the most. She does care for her students’ progress and makes sure they don’t miss any of her lectures.

Recently, professor Sally B. Hunter noticed how Megan was missing her class so she decided to learn the reason behind it, and now their conversation went viral all for the right reasons. 

Twitter

Meghan had to be honest and tell her professor how she had to take care of her baby instead of attending classes. Professor Hunter’s answer was really surprising and shook Meghan to the core. 

“In the future, if you are having trouble finding someone to watch Korbyn, please feel free to just BRING HER with you to class. I would be absolutely delighted to hold her while I teach, so that you can still pay attention to the class and take notes. I work for the Department of CHILD and FAMILY Studies — so how terrible would it be, if I was unwilling to have a child visit our class? I’m very serious with this offer—just bring Korbyn with you!”

This young mother knew how she had to post this online so that everyone could see how considerate her professor is. To be honest, people like these are rare nowadays. 

Twitter

People from all over the country are praising the professor’s act. Who knows how many students that struggle would perform better if there were more professors like Ms. Hunter. 

Twitter

Knowing that many mothers who find themselves in the position of Morgan are not getting this same level of support by their schools and universities makes it difficult for them to continue their education. Many quit pursuing their dreams of becoming successful in certain field they find appealing. And to be honest, that’s really sad. Who knows what they can achieve if they are given a little push in life. 

Ms. Hunter’s children-friendly classroom is a place where dreams come true. If there are more people like her, the motherhood and education won’t be two terms we can’t imagine being incorporated together.

Incredible video shows how astonishingly precise Rami Malek’s performance as Freddie Mercury is

By

Fans from all around the world are overwhelmed by the stunning performance of Rami Malek in the movie that depicts the life of the legendary Freddie Mercury and celebrates the Queen, the band that left a legacy many pursue to achieve. 

“Bohemian Rhapsody” is a powerful piece of work that takes the viewers through a roller coaster of emotions. They are especially astounded of how accurately this young actor portrayed Freddie and his excellence on stage. 

And although everyone is aware of Malek’s incredible acting skills, the video below that vent viral in a blink of an eye is just another proof that he is one of the best in the business. It shows the authentic recreation of the remarkable performance of Freddie and the Queen at Live Aid in 1985. Every single move is perfectly replicated, from hand gestures, to pursue of the lips, the steps, and everything else. 

Fans are taking it to the social media to praise Malek’s devotion to making each scene of the movie a one to remember.

“These dudes were literally able to recreate the greatest live show ever performed and made a new generation be able to experience it as if they were actually there. This scene literally gave me f**king CHILLS god damnit (sic),” wrote @ruggeddonut.

He was joined by @IAmIknat who claimed that she became unsure which was which while watching. “They did it precisely that I got confused which is the original and which is the remake,” she tweeted. “Omg not a sucker for him but daaaang this sure is historical!!! Gotta watch this (sic)”.

The actor himself said on many occasions how he felt humbled and thrilled to be given the chance to honor great Freddie through this movie. He also said how he had watched the concert more than 1,500 times, wanting to perfect it, although, as he told news.co.au nothing in life is perfect.

 

“It felt like I had it in my bones and I didn’t want to keep going back to it,” he said. “It felt like sometimes you would lose a little bit of the authenticity if you tried to nail it so perfectly. Things won’t exactly always match up, there might be a hint of something that’s off, but I think that kept it feeling really alive and in the moment and it was better to sacrifice it that way, but yeah, I was watching it non-stop.”

He continued:

“That’s something we tried to get move for move, even just gesture for gesture perfectly. Every day we did (filmed) a song. Day one, Bohemian. Day two, Radio Gaga. Day three, Hammer To Fall and the Day-O. Four we did Crazy Little Thing Called Love. Five, We Will Rock You and We Are The Champions and on the sixth day we rested. Then we did the entire show which was the most phenomenal experience one could ever ask for. Adrenaline high like you don’t even know man.”

 

Malek told Who how he wanted to get into the life of Freddie completely, trying to learn as much as he could. 

“There’s just an eloquence and elegance to him that you see when he’s on stage, and then you can [see] where all that was birthed from,” he claimed. “I mean, not many artists are wearing an entire head-to-toe leather outfit, sipping a champagne flute and telling their audience to strip naked if they please. And he still comes off with this essence of royalty.”

This mind-blowing acting has to be seen to be believed. We hope Rami Malek gets the recognition he deserves. 

Man helps someone in need and is surprised to learn their identity

Being there for those in need of help can influence a person’s life to the extent they’ve never assumed. Many times when someone offers a helping hand, they don’t expect anything in return. But as no good deed ever goes unnoticed, these people are later rewarded this way or the other. 

That’s exactly what happened to a homeless man with a heart of gold who didn’t hesitate a bit when it came to stepping in for a complete stranger. 

This is one of those stories that teaches us how any act of kindness can go a long way. 

YouTube

 

Dave Cochran is a homeless guy from Kansas who lives in his vehicle, a 95′ Suburban. Although this man doesn’t have much money, he’s got something more valuable, a kind soul.

One day as he was laying in his car he noticed another man struggling to get his out of the piles of snow. The winter struck really hard and it made it difficult for people to navigate their vehicles. 

Cohran was aware the man wouldn’t be able to succeed in doing what he was trying to do, so he decided to offer a helping hand. His Suburban was way older than the 2019 BMW, but it was more powerful, so Cohran offered to tow the other car up the hill.

YouTube

 

After it was all done, Dave was happy to help and even happier for not scratching the man’s brand new car. The man on the other hand, thanked Dave and drove his way. 

But, never in his wildest dreams did this homeless man think this story will go viral and he’ll become famous in his hometown and even further. 

The stranger turned out to be the very famous Kansas City Chief’s NFL player, Jeff Allen. 

Jeff really wanted to do something nice for Dave. Ne though that that way he’ll show everyone how doing good is always the right option. However, he didn’t know anything about Dave, except for his name and that he was driving a Suburban truck.

But, tracking someone down is quite easy these days because of the social networking sites such as Tweeter where Jeff posted about what had happened. 

Soon after, people who knew Dave told him how the player was looking for him because he wanted to invite him to the AFC championship. 

YouTube

 

After they got in touch, Jeff gave Dave three free tickets to a game in Arrowhead Stadium. Dave said:

“He gave me three free tickets to the championship games [on] Sunday. And I mean, God bless him, I’ve never been to a football game ever in my life.”

All this made Dave believe that things may turn for the good for him in the future because now he’s faith in humanity was restored. He did what he believed was the right thing to do, and I believe that this story helped change people’s general opinion for the homeless. 

Now that people learned of Dave’s situation, we hope many will step in and help him get a new start in life. 

Soldier falls in love with puppy overseas, Watch moment they’re finally reunited in USA

Many animals make great pets, but let’s be honest, none beats dogs. They are easy to make friends with, and once they fall in love with you it means you have someone in your life who will never leave your side.

When Daniel Rindone was deployed to Syria, he hoped to meet fellow soldiers who’ll become his pals, but little did he know that he would find his best companion in the dog that would often approach the base along with a bunch of other pups. The smart creatures knew  the soldiers would give them some food so they would pay them a visit every now and then. Among the pack of dogs there was one that was sort of special. Rindone named it Syri and grew fond of it. 

As the time to get back to the States was approaching, Rindone knew it would mean saying goodbye to fluffy Syri, and that was something he couldn’t come to terms with. The only logical solution he could come up with was taking Syri home with him. After contacting the SPCA, he was told they had an international program that could help. 

“I have this little dog here that I want to bring home,” he told them and “How do I do it?” he ask.

The plan was for Syri and some other canines to be taken to the SPCA location in Erbil, Iraq until all the paperwork needed was completed. Unfortunately, just as they were supposed to leave the country and head to U.S.A, the Erbil Airport was shut down and there was no way for the dog to get to her friend any time soon. 

Eventually, four months after that, the so much anticipated encounter took place. 

“Five months ago, I met this pup fresh into my last deployment during Operation Inherent Resolve,”

Rindone posted on Facebook on Jan. 25. She was pretty skinny, but her smile was the sweetest he’s ever seen. 

“She stayed with me, sharing our food and getting stronger in the following months until she was handed over to the SPCA: I, who I found and reached out to shortly after she arrived in hopes that I could find her a way home with me. If there is any organization that can make miracles happen, it’s this one.”

For the time she was waiting to be reunited with Rindone, Syri was very well taken care of. The staff from SPCA made sure she was nicely fed while they were doing their best to get her to New York. 

“Three days ago, after flying through Lebanon, Paris, and finally to JFK Airport, this little survivor named Syri is finally here thanks to that great organization.”

“I’ll be eternally grateful to them for reuniting me with the puppy that was a light to me in an otherwise dark and awful deployment,” he wrote. “Welcome home Syri!”

Rindone believes that if it wasn’t for his sweet pup, he wouldn’t be able to get used to his old life that easily. She was there for him and although it may seem that he saved her, it was Syri who helped Daniel go through his dark times. 

Dad playfully argues with toddler about her new boyfriend

At one moment you see your little one learning how to walk and saying her first words, and then, boom, the time comes for you to understand that she fell in love! Although that’s part of life and pretty much normal, knowing your daughter is old enough to be bothered finding answers to what to wear on her first date or whether it is time for “the kiss” just yet, makes fathers feel old, and to be honest, a bit jealous.

Although she has a long way to go until she really starts dating, this cutie pie has some news to share with her dad. And you might be guessing already, she does have a boyfriend. Not a real one, that’s for sure. But we all know that pretending to have one is what little girls do sometimes. He might be the singer whose music they love listening to, or the cute guy from Big Time Rush. But it’s usually that boy that sits next to them in the school bus and doesn’t speak to them because he’s really shy. 

Well, no matter who the lucky boy might be, this sassy toddler makes sure her dad knows she has a crush on someone. Dad’s reaction? Priceless!

Facebook/Poke My Heart

She chooses dinner time to break the big news, and she’s all casual, holding the fork in her hand and pretending to itch her nose, as though she’s trying to add to the drama. 

Their conversation is hilarious. 

“I got a boyfriend.” “Oh no you do not.” “Oh yes I do.” “Oh no you don’t.” “Oh yes I do.”

Facebook/Poke My Heart

She’s not getting no for an answer and goes on trying to make her dad accept “she is in love.”

“That boyfriend better be talking to your daddy.”

Hmm, her cute little face says it all, she doesn’t really like the idea of introducing him to her dad just yet. Maybe wait until things get more serious. Plus, she has to choose the right time. Should it be a snack time or they should all organize a play date. So many questions the tiny head should think about. 

“No no no!” “Yes, he better.” “No. He is my boyfriend.”

Facebook/Poke My Heart

As giggling can be heard from the background, daddy goes on saying:

“He needs to come talk to me first. You tell him that.”

At this point, the sassy little lady puts her hand on her forehead, as though she wants her daddy to know she doesn’t need that much pressure. But he is determined to meet the lucky boy.

“You got it?”

Turning to the laughing crowd, she once again says how she has a boyfriend and she does look like she means that. And him meeting her daddy, that’s definitely a no can do. 

She is really super cute, but we do believe that if she is strong-willed like this from this age, than daddy might be in trouble when the time comes for her to date. But we also believe that most kids her age have this attitude. Trust me, been there, done that. 

Facebook/Poke My Heart

This father-daughter moment is definitely a must watch. You’re going to fall in love with this quick-witted girl.
