I was adopted by two gay dads in 2001 and I’m now 25 years old. I’ve played sports my whole life and served in the military. The most common misconception when you have two fathers is that they’re going to raise you to be feminine. This is not true. Two gay fathers at the end of the day are still men. It might be different with girls but as a man, in my experience, I had been raised to be a mans man. As i talk to my fathers today as an adult, they always seem to be blind to the fact that they are men just like any other man and that that being raised by two gay dads is no different than being raised by two straight ones.
I'm a single mother raising 2 teens alone and I'm proud to have both my kids , even if my children don't know what it's like to have a father , they know they have a amazing hard working mother and grandparents to love them . I enjoyed this video because it shows the true beauty of loving parents to they're child . The bond that this amazing beautiful family has is something only built by true love , congratulations on the adoption perfect family 👪 💜 keep up the amazing job guys
Thank you so much for commenting! I wish I could give you a big hug!! Thank you so much for your sweet words. Your kids are so lucky to have a mom like you. Sending you so much love 🥹❤️
Kenzie is growing up with the love and support of two people who love her wholeheartedly and are committed to this family unit. I wish every child could know so much love and witness such commitment. You all rock!
Gosh, this one broke my heart. I can’t imagine what Kenzie went through in her young life. She is certainly a strong young lady but no child should ever have to suffer abuse. It’s evident that she is now very much loved and cared for and living a happy life. She has the most beautiful smile ever.❤
I'm so sorry for the amount of hurt and pain your family must have gone through over the years and for that I'm so sorry 😔 I truly can't imagine. I'm happy that Kenzie is in a home where she gets to flourish and thrive and become the best version of herself in a loving and healthy environment ❤️ Like I said on y'all's insta posts CONGRATULATIONS 😁 🎉👏
thank you sm i just found your account and i’m a teen and me and my gf have been rly worried about how to start a family as two girls but you gave us a bit of hope 🌈❤️
So sorry for everything Kenzie went through. She’s so fortunate to have two parents that love her and support her. Thanks for sharing this wonderful part of your life with us.
I only came across this video when I typed in adoption day. All I see are two loving parents and a child that needed a home. Two very loving individuals opened up their hearts and their home . Whether it be two women, two men, or a male and a female it doesn't matter. As long as the child is loved and nurtured. Clearly your daughter is such! From somebody who was adopted, thank you for giving her a home. Thank you for loving her.
I don't know how your video showed up in my feed, but what an absolute pleasure to watch your beautiful family at an incredible time in your lives.. Kenzie is one lucky girl to have two parents who adore her. Sending lots of love to you all from England. These wonderful memories you have all created together are so full of love they made this Daddies girl who no longer has her Dad cry happy tears. xxx
Awww this comment warmed my heart sooo much!! Thank you so much for it. So sorry you’ve lost your dad… Bryan lost his mom when we first met and I have seen that hole it leaves in one’s heart, that can never be replaced. Sending you BIG a hugs and lots of love. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love how you love her! You are raising a smart, happy and confident young woman. Congrats on officially becoming a family, although it looks like you were always one from the beginning. Much love 💞
I could not keep the tears away on this one!! Words can’t describe how touching & special it was to share in your day. She is one blessed young lady. You can feel the love radiate from the screen. Wishing you all a wonderful life. I’m here for as long as you’re making the videos Going through a rough patch & your joy and family brings me a sparkle. So thank you!!! 🌈💜🩷
No matter how much pain she had to experience through her biological mother. Angels sent another two angels to save her and provide the love, protection and affection she deserves. A COMPLETE NUCLEAR FAMILY. 💞💞💞💞💞
My heart broke. I just left a long comment hoping and praying that Kenzie’s mama could get her life together and come back in as a supportive parent one day. It breaks my heart to know she’s passed.
I had no idea the process was so long. I thought she was already yours (like surrogacy)! I even thought you guys were adopting again 😭 This is the most wholesome video. You guys are amazing!!
OMG!! I'm in tears!! I'm so happy for you!! I'm happy that Kenzie was blessed to have such wonderful Dad's. I am happy I found you three on UA-cam. Your videos always brighten my day. Congratulations Holgate family! Much love and respect! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
OMG what an absolutely beautiful Video. Diddy, you have raised this little girl with sooo much love, as your own daughter. You can tell she absolutely loves you, as she does her biological dad. Together you have created a home so full of love and fun. This beautiful young lady feels very safe, and is able to express herself freely. Thank you for giving this child a safe loving home that is filled with fun, excitement and lots of love. From Jack and Family (all 9 of us, including 1 adopted and 3 foster kids) from Brisbane Queensland Australia.
This randomly showed up in my UA-cam feed this morning and it gave me all the feels! 😍😍😍 SO happy for Kenzie that she has such a beautiful home to grow up in and two amazing dads to be there for her! 😁
Hi! New here. I’m so happy for all of you!!! Kenzie is a little princess!!! She’s growing up in a home with so much love and fun. I’m very sorry about her mama. That is terrible. On the other side now she will be growing up with 2 men with fashion sense. That’s Amazing in itself!!!💛💛💛💛💛
Not a dry eye in our household after watching this! This is an incredibly beautiful journey to see. Thank you for sharing and huge congratulations to your family ❤️
You guys are angels. Don't let anyone take away those beautiful spirits yall were given. I hope Kenzie n yall have the best, most amazing, adventure n fun filled future!
Congratulations on Adoption Day! Even though your 3 hearts have been bound all along, you now have the added security of legal bond, as well. It signifies that every day & in every way, you are a family! You guys are a gorgeous couple with a gorgeous daughter; even your dog is gorgeous! You're all so lucky to have one another. Your love for each other & your love for her have created such an amazing life together.
@TheHolgates You're so welcome! I just call it like I see it. It's refreshing to see relationships that bring out the best in everyone involved. I think this calls for a flash mob just busting out, in the spirit of total awesomeness, with "It's Raining Men" outside on the courthouse steps! Just saying...
Oooh girl! This was the most poignant & wonderfully real story that I’ve seen in a long time. It made me smile & laugh, made me cry, & in the end…gave me strength & hope. What an intimate glimpse into the lives of a fabulous family that was destined from the start. It was evident in the first few photos of Diddy with Kenzie as a little one, that you two would be inseparable. I could not be happier for your family, and for the happy milestone of Kenzies adoption! Y’all share so much love, laughter, personality, patience and fun! I’m thankful 🙏🏻 to have discovered your family. You have gained another cheerleader. Gooo Holgate Family!! 🙌🏻💜
Oh my gosh you have no idea how much this made our day 🥹 Thank you SO much! Had to screenshot your sweet comment to save it. Thank you for your kindness and words. ❤️❤️❤️
Just finished watching the adoption vlog and it was a tear jerker. You can tell that Kenzie is so loved by you both and she is so lucky to have you as her parents! She is one lucky girl! ❤❤
This was absolutely beautiful and thank you for sharing. I thought she was officially both of yours. This has to be my favorite video yet. So tender and loving. She is one lucky little girl to be blessed with to daddy’s who love her unconditionally. Your family is beautiful. Congratulations 🎉
The way ya'll mention her beauty then follow with how she's going to do amazing things and her organizational skills. THIS IS PARENTING RIGHT! I don't GAF the make up of what makes "parents" or "guardians" so long as the child is loved, shown what love means and has a life similar to what we see here.
Such wonderful memories! You can see how much Kenzie is loved. Stephen you are a great dad. The only thing that matters is she is loved, in a stable home, and loved. Well done dads you are making Kenzie into a wonderful lady!! ❤❤❤
Diddy, i wrote to you on instagram a few weeks ago, and just re-watched this video, another 3 times with many tears of love and joy in my eyes as well as sadness but all in all of huge respect for you both as parents to kenzie giving her such a stable and loving life, you are such an example to the world of what good parenting is, WELLDONE i love getting to know you all more and more.
Yours and kenzies relationship is the absolute best. You’s have an amazing friendship which makes up for most of a relationship with a child in my opinion. The fact you’s can be so sarcastic, funny honest and open with eachother is amazing. She is so lucky to have you take care of her along with her bio dad. You’re absolutely fabulous. In All ways! Wish you guys nothing but love, luck and happiness!!!
I just found your videos this past week. I was curious as to the dynamic of your family. You all seem so happy. It's great to see so much good come out of such tragic circumstances.
As an adopted kid myself, this story tugged at my heart. What wonderful parents you both are. And Steven, you are a way better girl "mom" than I could ever be. I am so glad I had a son. (I know you prefer to be called a dad, but you now what I mean.) You learned from a beautiful mom and sisters. Your family is beautiful! It is wonderful to see her grow with you. Congratulations! Xoxo
I just found y'all's channel, I'm so glad I did. This is such a sweet and loving video. Kenzie is a beautiful young lady. And I'm so happy that y'all have your happily ever after 💗
Two of the most deserving and beautiful Dads ever! What a wonderful video! Much love and respect, I loved this video. There needs to be more people like your family in the world.
I sobbed and sobbed through the photo slide show!! You guys have the most fun filled, Loving , Joyful and real bond I’ve ever seen with a child and parent xoxooxox Truly your such a blessing to this beautiful little girl and it’s very clear how much she absolutely ADORES you and her daddy! It’s too cute 😆😆❤❤❤
Such a touching story and video. I found your family through our shared loved of Disney but I instantly felt a connection to your guys energy and love for one another. My family has had a hard few years and its been tuff to find the silver lining but I've been watching your channel every morning to put my in the best mood for the day. You all are an inspiration for other family's and parents out here. So glad I found your family to watch! ❤❤
Omg!! 😢 thank you for this ❤️🥰. You have no idea what this video has done for my life and those around me. Please pray for my family that my husband will be able to adopt my daughter (our daughter). 🙏🏼❤️.
That is so special, my husband adopted my daughter. You are a lovely family and is so special as you have been a constant in her life from a baby Kenzie is a beautiful young lady ❤
I’m 70yrs. young pick me, pick me! Oh please! You three are adorable! I’ll be really good! I’ll never understand what makes people so against gays. I just don’t get it. The three of you plus pets and extended support are the prime example of health and happiness. The Lord Jesus Christ could not be more pleased with this incredible family. Truly I’m so happy for each of you. Congratulations! 🎊🎉 🎂🥳❤❤❤👋🏻🧑🦳😊🥳🎂😀💐
What a heart warming video. I am so happy Kenzi is safe now and with 2 amazing, loving dads. You guys are doing an awesome job! You are a beautiful family!
I cried like a baby when I realized she’s been singing songs with you since she was little! Stephen you are an amazing person, you and dad are doing a fantastic job raising a Queen we are so happy for you Kenzie you really did get you’re happy ending ❤❤❤❤❤ #weloveourholgatefamily
I know this is a year old ... just want to say congratulations on becoming one of the most awesome families in these United States!!! So super happy for you all !!!
This was beautiful! I’m so glad I found you, you’re such a fun family. You can tell you all love each other and are definitely best friends too. My mom is my best friend and as much as people say your parents shouldn’t be your friends, I have to strongly disagree. Kenzie is going to be able to come to you with everything as she grows up and even when she’s an adult. She won’t be sneaking out doing things, because she has a home environment where she’s allowed to be herself and express herself. I’m pansexual and never had to come out of any closet, as my mom is a strong ally and I grew up seeing all kinds of people. She would ask if I liked any boys OR girls my entire life and always said she hoped I found a good husband or wife someday. When I got a girlfriend I just told her “mom I’m dating this really cute girl” and my sexuality was NEVER discussed. Because to her it really doesn’t matter at all. People ask me how I came out all the time, as I’ve been out since childhood, but I can’t answer that question and I’m actually grateful for it? Sorry for ranting, but you two just remind me of my mom and she’s a star, so it’s beautiful to see her grow up in such a beautiful environment. Thanks for sharing your story, earned another sub. 🥰❤️
Oh my gosh, Naomi I loved reading your comment so so much 😭😭😭 Just read it to Bryan and Kenzie. You seem so amazing and it definitely sounds like you have one special Mom. I love that you were lucky enough to have an environment like that to grow up in where you could just completely be who you want to be. That is SO how it should be. We’ve always hoped that because of the type of relationship we have with kenzie that as she ages it will strengthen and she will always be able to come to us with anything and be upfront and honest. So I loved reading that part from you! 😭😭 You have no idea how much your sweet words made our day!!! ❤️❤️❤️
@@TheHolgates Omg you angels! 🥺 I didn’t think it’d even reach you and I’m so glad you read this with her, I promise you’re doing amazing and you’re lucky to have such a wonderful and beautiful daughter. ❤️❤️❤️
Congratulations!! This makes me sooo happy! I’ve been obsessing over the videos you have on IG from when she was a toddler. Thank you guys for posting this video!
Ужасно,когда красивые молодые мужчины,вместо того,чтобы создать нормальную семью с женщиной и иметь своих детей,извращаются друг с другом и им ещё девочку дают на воспитание(((
Hello!! I just came across this channel and needless to say I'm so glad how you guys had been taking care of her as two fathers. She's really lucky to have you both! Love from India 🤍
I’m so glad Kenzie has her happy ending ( beginning) with her Diddie ( legally) forever. Thank you for the window 🪟 into your wonderful family. 👨👨👧🐶🐱
Hello BEAUTIFUL Holgate family! I am so sorry that Kenzie had to go through through so much at such a young age but how BLESSED she is to have 2 such wonderful involved Fathers. This warms my heart so very much. I started watching your videos a few months back when I booked my first Disney cruise. After awhile I just enjoyed watching you guys and absorbing all the positive vibes. My Dad passed away late July and watching your videos have definitely helped lift my spirits. I am extremely happy for your little family and send you all a great big hug in congratulations for this momentous occasion. HAPPY BELATED ADOPTION DAY!!!! XOXO
Aww Denise I loved reading this 😭❤️ Thank you SO SO much for your incredibly sweet words. Means the world to us. I am so sorry about the loss of your father 😔 sending you big hugs and positive vibes. I’m so glad you left a comment. You are the best. 🥹❤️❤️
This is like the show “The Fosters” Where in the show... the kids were being raised by two moms. In your case It’s two dads❤ which is pretty awesome & cool. I’ve been waiting for something like this to happen. Your family is beautiful
You make me cry! Wow I can feel the love there, all the pictures,times ,dedication and you are truly her dad .Honestly , if every family has a Diddy ,the world will be better and the kids will more happy . Fatherhood requires love, not DNA .love you guys.
OMG her little note at the end made me cry like a baby 😭 you tell should be extremely proud of yourselves! You're raising her better than most parents with a mom and dad. I can't speak from experience because i only had my mother growing up. But I just KNOW most people don't have this much love for even their own children, let alone one they've adopted. My son in law actually adopted a little girl and he's very abusive towards her and stuff it's very sad. Anyways congrats 👏🎉 i bet you're just over the moon happy about your amazing little family ❤❤
Hold upppppp!! I just came across this in my recommendations and OMG I’m screaming with JOY!!! How how HOW is there only 2.7 k subs????? Um NO NO!! You guys are going to be huge ON HERE SOON I KNOW IT!!!!!!!! Xoxoxooxooxoxo
You know what you two make the best parents I've ever seen so far on UA-cam or really in real life she is an adorable beautiful beautiful child growing up to be a beautiful woman you have raised her since she was a baby and I've been watching you guys since she was a baby your UA-cam videos are beautiful I hope you guys last forever and more in your marriage and more and watch her grow up to be a beautiful woman as she is a beautiful girl now you guys treat her so good but now you need a little brother or a little sister so work on that she's going to want a sibling but she's very well mannered very respected child I am very surprised your videos are absolutely wonderful cuz you guys tell it how it is you guys don't sugar coat anything and that's what she loves about both of you God put you in her future and now she's adopted and that is the most beautiful thing in the world
BEST FAMILY EVER💜❤️💙💛💚🧡 I’m so sorry Kenzie had to experience trauma regarding her bio mom, but I am so happy she has 2 loving parents who adore her. Anyone would be lucky to be adopted by Diddy!
Omg.... who's cutting onions 🥹🥲😢 What a beautiful and blessed young lady Kenzie is to be covered in so much love ❤ Love this and a super late congratulations to your sweet family ❤️
I’ve always noticed Kenzie looking a lot like Daddy Bryan. I cried a little after Diddy said, I’m not gonna cry, I hate crying. So much love and happiness shining! I’m so touched by how you guys are to each other every day that I’ve watched the videos. I’m a silent subscriber and quite guilty of not commenting every time I watch. I’m thankful that I’ve found you guys and it brings me joy every time I see you guys! Many blessings to you and to yours! Happy, healthy, peaceful family life from me to yours! 🥰😘
I have just recently found your channel and have fallen in love with your family! This vlog was the most heart warming thing I have watched probably ever. I cried such happy tears watching this...thank you so much🥰.
Thank you for this. Especially when people are so unknowledgeable about what makes a family. I have seen both ways being positive but also negative. I love the positivity in families. Because blood doesn't always make a family. A family is full of love, nurturing and kindness as well as teaching and belonging. I'm so happy for your family and am excited to see what's next.
She actually looks like a perfect blend between the two of you; this had me crying happy tears congratulations on the adoption
Awww thank you so much!

That is so sweet of you to say! Thank you SO much!
Could this be any sweeter? What a beautiful, and happy little family. You are blessed.
You are so sweet! Thank you!
Such wonderful memories! You can see how much Kenzie is loved. Stephen you are a great dad. The only thing that matters is she is loved, in a stable home, and loved. Well done dads you are making Kenzie into a wonderful lady!! ❤❤❤
Aww this made my day to read. Thank you so much!!! 🥹🥹
So happy for Kenzi and Didi. The videos of her growing up was beautiful. Seriously, she has the best dads.
Aww thank you sooo much! You’re the sweetest 😘😘
Diddy, i wrote to you on instagram a few weeks ago, and just re-watched this video, another 3 times with many tears of love and joy in my eyes as well as sadness but all in all of huge respect for you both as parents to kenzie giving her such a stable and loving life, you are such an example to the world of what good parenting is, WELLDONE i love getting to know you all more and more.
I am so glad Kenzie is now in a safe, non-abusive home
❤️❤️❤️
Yours and kenzies relationship is the absolute best. You’s have an amazing friendship which makes up for most of a relationship with a child in my opinion. The fact you’s can be so sarcastic, funny honest and open with eachother is amazing. She is so lucky to have you take care of her along with her bio dad. You’re absolutely fabulous. In All ways! Wish you guys nothing but love, luck and happiness!!!
This is so incredibly sweet ❤️ thank you so so much!
You raise her for ten years, regardless of legal documentation, she is your child. God bless your family. 🙏❤
You are so sweet 🥹 that means a lot… thank you so much, love! ❤️❤️❤️
I nearly cried when it got to the videos of her birthdays...i never knew one video could radiate so much love and positivity ❤
Awww you are so sweet! Thank you!
I just found your videos this past week. I was curious as to the dynamic of your family. You all seem so happy. It's great to see so much good come out of such tragic circumstances.
Hi! Aw thank you very much! ❤️❤️
As an adopted kid myself, this story tugged at my heart. What wonderful parents you both are. And Steven, you are a way better girl "mom" than I could ever be. I am so glad I had a son. (I know you prefer to be called a dad, but you now what I mean.) You learned from a beautiful mom and sisters. Your family is beautiful! It is wonderful to see her grow with you. Congratulations! Xoxo
Is it weird that after one video I love you guys already?
Your family is so cute! Wishing the best for you guys!
Awww thank you!!! You’re so sweet! Love ya ❤️❤️❤️❤️

My family has had a hard few years and its been tuff to find the silver lining but I've been watching your channel every morning to put my in the best mood for the day.

Awww April 😭😭 you are the best. Thank you so much means a lot ❤️❤️
Adoption day...Kenzie was absolutely stunning. You guys are so fun all around.
Aww thanks so much!! ❤️❤️❤️
I know this is a year old ... just want to say congratulations on becoming one of the most awesome families in these United States!!! So super happy for you all !!!
Aw thank you so much! ❤️❤️
This was beautiful! I’m so glad I found you, you’re such a fun family. You can tell you all love each other and are definitely best friends too. My mom is my best friend and as much as people say your parents shouldn’t be your friends, I have to strongly disagree. Kenzie is going to be able to come to you with everything as she grows up and even when she’s an adult. She won’t be sneaking out doing things, because she has a home environment where she’s allowed to be herself and express herself. I’m pansexual and never had to come out of any closet, as my mom is a strong ally and I grew up seeing all kinds of people. She would ask if I liked any boys OR girls my entire life and always said she hoped I found a good husband or wife someday. When I got a girlfriend I just told her “mom I’m dating this really cute girl” and my sexuality was NEVER discussed. Because to her it really doesn’t matter at all. People ask me how I came out all the time, as I’ve been out since childhood, but I can’t answer that question and I’m actually grateful for it? Sorry for ranting, but you two just remind me of my mom and she’s a star, so it’s beautiful to see her grow up in such a beautiful environment. Thanks for sharing your story, earned another sub. 🥰❤️
Oh my gosh, Naomi I loved reading your comment so so much 😭😭😭 Just read it to Bryan and Kenzie. You seem so amazing and it definitely sounds like you have one special Mom. I love that you were lucky enough to have an environment like that to grow up in where you could just completely be who you want to be. That is SO how it should be. We’ve always hoped that because of the type of relationship we have with kenzie that as she ages it will strengthen and she will always be able to come to us with anything and be upfront and honest. So I loved reading that part from you! 😭😭
You have no idea how much your sweet words made our day!!! ❤️❤️❤️
@@TheHolgates Omg you angels! 🥺 I didn’t think it’d even reach you and I’m so glad you read this with her, I promise you’re doing amazing and you’re lucky to have such a wonderful and beautiful daughter. ❤️❤️❤️
Congratulations!! This makes me sooo happy! I’ve been obsessing over the videos you have on IG from when she was a toddler.
Thank you guys for posting this video!
Aww thank you so much!!! 🥹❤️
Oh my gosh! What a beautiful family! I am adopted from South Korea so I love stories like this! Congrats! 🎉
Hi!!! Awww thank you so much!! And thanks for sharing your being adopted! I love that ❤️❤️❤️❤️
This was simply amazing. Thanks for letting us go along with you three on this life journey.
Thank you so much!
Не поняла ни одного слова,но столько позитива и добра от этой семьи,что досмотрела весь фильм!Люди,будьте счастливы и любимы!!!
This made my day! Thank you so much! ❤️❤️
Эххх.... я бы с радостью перевела бы Вам всё видео, такая милая семья)) Жалко видео долгое.
Ужасно,когда красивые молодые мужчины,вместо того,чтобы создать нормальную семью с женщиной и иметь своих детей,извращаются друг с другом и им ещё девочку дают на воспитание(((
Hello!! I just came across this channel and needless to say I'm so glad how you guys had been taking care of her as two fathers. She's really lucky to have you both! Love from India 🤍
Aw thank you very much!
I’m so glad Kenzie has her happy ending ( beginning) with her Diddie ( legally) forever.
Thank you for the window 🪟 into your wonderful family. 👨👨👧🐶🐱
So sweet 🥹 thank you so so much ❤️❤️
Hello BEAUTIFUL Holgate family! I am so sorry that Kenzie had to go through through so much at such a young age but how BLESSED she is to have 2 such wonderful involved Fathers. This warms my heart so very much. I started watching your videos a few months back when I booked my first Disney cruise. After awhile I just enjoyed watching you guys and absorbing all the positive vibes. My Dad passed away late July and watching your videos have definitely helped lift my spirits. I am extremely happy for your little family and send you all a great big hug in congratulations for this momentous occasion. HAPPY BELATED ADOPTION DAY!!!! XOXO
Aww Denise I loved reading this 😭❤️
Thank you SO SO much for your incredibly sweet words. Means the world to us. I am so sorry about the loss of your father 😔 sending you big hugs and positive vibes. I’m so glad you left a comment. You are the best. 🥹❤️❤️
This is like the show “The Fosters” Where in the show... the kids were being raised by two moms. In your case It’s two dads❤ which is pretty awesome & cool. I’ve been waiting for something like this to happen. Your family is beautiful
Aww thank you! I love The Fosters! Such a good show. Thanks for the sweet comment 🥹❤️❤️❤️
So happy for you all 1! MY fav movie was Annie as well when i was younger ! Congrats to youall
Such a loving family!!!!!! Kenzie is to lucky to have such incredible dads!!!!! Congratulations to you all!!!
Thank you so much!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I hope the Universe blesses you three for EVER! Love and light!!!
You are so sweet. Thank you so much!
You make me cry! Wow I can feel the love there, all the pictures,times ,dedication and you are truly her dad .Honestly , if every family has a Diddy ,the world will be better and the kids will more happy . Fatherhood requires love, not DNA .love you guys.
This is sooo sweet! Omg I had to screenshot cause it means so much to me!!! Thank you so so much!!! 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@TheHolgates I wish I can give you the 10 % of love you give
She looks very happy. She has a great family and the stability she needs.
Aww so sweet of you to say 🥹❤️Thank you so much!
OMG her little note at the end made me cry like a baby 😭 you tell should be extremely proud of yourselves! You're raising her better than most parents with a mom and dad. I can't speak from experience because i only had my mother growing up. But I just KNOW most people don't have this much love for even their own children, let alone one they've adopted. My son in law actually adopted a little girl and he's very abusive towards her and stuff it's very sad. Anyways congrats 👏🎉 i bet you're just over the moon happy about your amazing little family ❤❤
Awww you are such a sweetheart. Thank you so much! That means a lot! 🥹
I’m so sorry about the situation with your son n law 😢
Sending you big hugs ❤️
She is so lucky to have two dads
Thank you! 😭❤️
Ikr! Double the dads, double the fun is what I say ❤
Right. I ever so wish I had 2 dads or 2 moms even
I cried !!!! 😢 Such a wonderful family !!!!!
Aww thank you so much!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Hold upppppp!! I just came across this in my recommendations and OMG I’m screaming with JOY!!! How how HOW is there only 2.7 k subs????? Um NO NO!! You guys are going to be huge ON HERE SOON I KNOW IT!!!!!!!! Xoxoxooxooxoxo
❤️❤️ You are by far the sweetest ever! Thank you!
You know what you two make the best parents I've ever seen so far on UA-cam or really in real life she is an adorable beautiful beautiful child growing up to be a beautiful woman you have raised her since she was a baby and I've been watching you guys since she was a baby your UA-cam videos are beautiful I hope you guys last forever and more in your marriage and more and watch her grow up to be a beautiful woman as she is a beautiful girl now you guys treat her so good but now you need a little brother or a little sister so work on that she's going to want a sibling but she's very well mannered very respected child I am very surprised your videos are absolutely wonderful cuz you guys tell it how it is you guys don't sugar coat anything and that's what she loves about both of you God put you in her future and now she's adopted and that is the most beautiful thing in the world
Wow this is so sweet!! We appreciate it. Thank you so so much! 🥹❤️❤️
How sweet! It’s so clear how much love y’all have for one another. Congratulations!

Awww you are such a sweetheart! Thank you so much! ❤️
What an amazing, beautiful and loving family you are... So many kids would love to have such loving parents
You are so kind! Thank you so much!!
I’ve always noticed Kenzie looking a lot like Daddy Bryan. I cried a little after Diddy said, I’m not gonna cry, I hate crying. So much love and happiness shining! I’m so touched by how you guys are to each other every day that I’ve watched the videos. I’m a silent subscriber and quite guilty of not commenting every time I watch. I’m thankful that I’ve found you guys and it brings me joy every time I see you guys! Many blessings to you and to yours! Happy, healthy, peaceful family life from me to yours! 🥰😘
Awwww you are so sweet! Thank you so much! 🥹 I appreciate you taking the time to comment. Sending big hugs! ❤️❤️
What a loving family ❤
I have just recently found your channel and have fallen in love with your family!
This vlog was the most heart warming thing I have watched probably ever.
I cried such happy tears watching this...thank you so much🥰.
Congrats, just beautiful ❤
Thank you so much 😀
Watching this from Germany and this is what America makes great
Aww that is so sweet! Thank you so much! ❤️
Such a beautiful family ❣️❣️ stay blessed guys ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much! ❤️❤️
Thank you for this. Especially when people are so unknowledgeable about what makes a family.
I have seen both ways being positive but also negative. I love the positivity in families. Because blood doesn't always make a family. A family is full of love, nurturing and kindness as well as teaching and belonging.
I'm so happy for your family and am excited to see what's next.
I love this. Thank you so much! ❤️❤️
Les deseo lo mejor de la vida a ustedes!!
Thank you so much!
Ah Im already crying. Such a loving family. Im so happy for Kenzie. You were meant to be together.
Awww you are so sweet!!!! Thank you so much!!!
I’m so sorry for kenzies mom 😢but I’m glad Kenzie is in a good home ❤
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
