My Girl

 


Hey everyone! I hope you all are doing well, I had a good week with Father's day coming up I decided to celebrate the holiday with the movie My Girl! 

It is a wonderful and amazing movie, It stars Anna Chlumsky, Macaulay Calkin, Dan Ackroyd and Jamie Lee Curtis are the main people in the movie and they all play a significant role in the movie it is also from the year 1991 a few years before I was born. 

The movie is set in 1972 Madison Pennsylvania we are first introduced to Vada Saltenfuss she is an elven year old girl and she is a hypochondriac.  

Her father is named Harry he is a widower and he is a little awkward and doesn't really understand Vada and he ignores her , he runs a funeral parlor in his home, and because of that it has led vada to develop an obsession with death and disease. 

Her mother died two days after she was born she had birth complication issues so vada thinks that she killed her mother. She also helps with her elderly grandmother who suffers from Alzheimer's and Harry's Brother Phil who lives close to them comes and helps out too. We then get to meet Vada's best friend Thomas J and Vada gets made fun of because her best friend is a boy. 

When you see the movie you will get to experience their friendship and the adventures they go on. They are happy and exciting adventures they make the cutest best friends. 

Later in the movie there is a sad moment that happens with Thomas J you will see when you watch the movie, Thomas J was a very wonderful friend to vada and she was a good friend to him too. They loved riding bikes together and climbing trees. He also told her that he wants to be an acrobat when he grows up, he loves the circus and he is a Ringo fan. 

Later in the movie We are then introduced to Shelley Devote she is the new Make-up artist at the funeral parlor and she also provides Vada with Guidance and encouragement. 

Vada has a crush on her teacher she steals some money from Shelley without her knowing so she can attend her teacher's writing class in the movie you will find out how Vada steals money from Shelley and where she gets the  money from. 

And also when you watch you will see something start to happen with Vada's father and Shelley. Also you will see something happen with Shelley and Vada and the way their relationship works and how they bond together.

In the beginning their relationship is a little rough around the edges as they get to know each other and learn about each other they become more comfortable and form a good relationship together and you will see a happy ending for everyone in the movie. 

I decided to write about this movie because I wanted to celebrate father's day and honor my father, and my family members also who are fathers.

 My father is a wonderful father, he protects and takes care of me, he is there whenever I need him he supports me and my dreams. He takes me on Daddy-Daughter Dates, he always makes sure I am happy and good. 

I have a lot of favorite moments with my dad one of my favorite moments is from my high school graduation party, I graduated from High school in 2015 from Middletown Area High school! 

It was one of the best moments in my life,I had my party at the Red Lion Hotel so before my party started my mom wanted me to make a grand entrance with my dad so for my grand entrance I decided to walk into the party with the song My Girl with my dad, so before I walked into the party with my dad my mom told me that I will walk into the party on the third beat of the song. 

I said ok,so my mom went into the party and announced on the microphone my name, i heard the third beat of the song so me and my dad went in and all the guests at my party stood up and I was amazed and excited to see everyone,my dad walked me around the room like a royal princess!

 I felt so honored and grateful to have him by my side walking with me! 

It is something I will always remember! My dad is very knowledgeable and enjoys history, we also enjoy watching movies together and he tells me different trivia facts that he knows about the movie, and he also enjoys playing with Elijah like I do he will ask me where is Elijah in a funny way to get Elijah upset and barking! 

He is a good dad and has always been there for me,before my Diabetes was diagnosed I had a doctor appointment to find out what was happening, my doctor checked my levels and she said that my numbers were so high they were not coming up on her screen and said that I have to go to the emergency room. 

My dad Jumped right into action and drove me to the Hershey Hospital, on the way there he was talking to me and encouraging me that everything will be ok, he was keeping me awake because he didn't want anything to happen to me because If I didn't stay alert  I could have gone into a coma. He did the right thing by keeping me alert, on the way to the hospital he thought he was going to lose me because he said it looked I was dying. 

He didn't want to lose me that is why he kept me talking and alert. I am glad and grateful to have him as my dad and happy to be his daughter. 

I also wanted to honor my Amazing Uncle Deric and My Favorite Cousin Devin, they are awesome and outstanding Fathers. My Uncle Deric is a really good father because he is always there for his sons and is there whenever they need him.

He always looks out for them and supports them and is always by their side. He laughs with them and talks with them, he always tells them that he loves them and very proud of them. He gives them encouragement and good strong talks. 

He is very strong and courageous and has a heart of Gold and he is very caring, kind and genuine. We have good talks together and always have a wonderful and good time when we see each other, he has always been there for me too every step of the way in my life. 

And he is always there to celebrate with me if I have a special event happening in my life! I have always looked up to him! He is a wonderful father,Brother,Son, Uncle and Friend! 

He is also very outgoing and lights up any room he goes into, and always has a bright and happy smile on his face! I love having him as an uncle and it is a honor to be his niece, and he also loves seeing his family happy and his boys happy because when they are happy he is happy.

My Favorite Cousin Devin is an Incredible father. He loves his daughter very much and she adores him. I think he is enjoying fatherhood very much, I can tell she adores him because she always a smile on her face when he is holding her and when he talks to her she does a cute laugh and smiles, and sometimes when she is sleepy he will pick her up and rock her and she will fall asleep quick because she feels the calming and loving presence of her dad. 

She knows that he will always be for there and will always be by her side. Devin is jovial, loving, caring, kind. He has an amazing laugh it makes my heart smile. He is a very hard worker and always put a hundred percent in what he does, he loves and takes care of his family. He has an amazing smile and it always brightens my day! His hugs are my favorite! I think fatherhood suits him very well and I am very proud of him! His daughter is his little princess and his heart and world!

There are a lot of outstanding fathers in my family that love and take of their family and will do anything for them, My Uncle Tony and My Uncle Warrie, My Cousin Tia and her husband Wayne is an amazing father. 

My Cousin Damon and My Cousin Mickey! They are all loving and caring fathers! I am very proud of each and every one of them and love them dearly!

My favorite moment from the movie is when Vada and Thomas J are talking about why do people get married. And Thomas J says when people get older it is just something that they do, and then Ava asks him if he has ever kissed anyone and he says no. 

Then Vada tells him maybe we should try it to see what the big deal, so they practice a little on their hands And then Vada counts to three and then they kiss! And first it is a little quiet, Thomas J is stunned, Ava tells him to say something so he stands up and says the pledge of Allegiance and then Vada  follows his lead and says it along with him. 

So then they decided to go back home, and before Vada reaches her house Thomas asks her if she will think of him if she does not get to marry Mr.Bixler she tells him I guess and then he smiles! That is a very cute scene in the movie! I think it will it put a smile on your faces too!

I recommend this movie to anyone who wants to watch a heart-warming drama comedy and have your hearts filled with happiness and joy! And enjoy the music in the movie because there is a special surprise song that you will hear when you watch and will probably sing along too!
