Jamie: "Do you like it?" Ava: "I surely do like it!" She's 4 and she says beautiful things like that. Ava has always impressed me. Such a smart, sweet and independent kid. Happy birthday, Ava! You're so special
@@TiMalice2009 , Why was that even necessary? Did it make you feel better? From looking at those 2 beautiful well adjusted little girls, it's apparent that BOTH Nikki and Jamie are good parents. It really doesn't have to be one or the other you know.
I struggled to hold back tears when she said that too. Also when I found out she had asked my dad to buy me a remote control car for her birthday too. That got me in my feelings
Jamie Perkins Wow. You have truly done an amazing job raising her and Zoe Jamie. I can tell. I’ve been a supporter here since she was born and it’s so heart warming to see how much she has grown to be so intelligent, sweet, respectful and caring. We see your love and dedication to your children, It’s so beautiful to watch.
Such an incredible person and both girls are just the two most beautiful souls. Protect their spirit at all cost, because we know this world can be so harsh.❤️
@@JamiePerkins I thought that was so cool that Zoe got to help open presents, she got a present (necklace) and you got a present! It was your "birth day" too!
The appreciation Ava showed towards Jaime was absolutely the cutest most heart warming thing ever. She was even more grateful to find out that Jaime has built the entire castle himself. She is so grown up with her adult like mindset in that she didn’t need a huge party or other materialistic things. Wishing you Ava so much joy and happiness on your special day!
Every video after the separation.. Watching him breaks my heart.. He seems so broken yet standing strong for his babies.. Great job Jamie.. one day at a time.. The entire events with the family made me realize that once the camera is off... a lot happens and you are a HUMAN!! A DAD- SINGLE DAD!!! I couldn't help but cry watching this..Her "thank you daddy" was breathtaking
You can kinda see the sadness on Jamie’s face on the drive back, but he kept a brave face for Ava and Zoe! You’re an awesome dad Jamie and they will cherish you for the rest of their life! 🌟
I've literally cried watching this... Never ever doubt even for a second that you're not good enough for Ava and Zoe. You're doing a great job, you're the best!
Okay I didn’t cry through the whole thing but when Ava said Daddy is my best friend at the end I lost it. You have certainly done something right. Thanks for sharing that with us.
I remember something Jackie Kennedy Onassis once said: "if you bungle raising your children nothing much else matters in life". Well Jamie you have shown your children unconditional love, have given them the confidence to reach beyond their comfort zone and have made them your priority in life. No matter where life takes you they will always adore you and you will feel proud to know you have given these girls the gift of pure love to carry them throughout their lives.
I so AGREE with your opinion and the quote by Jackie O, perfect! One of my favorite gems from her is this "There are many little ways to enlarge your child's world. Love of books is the best of all."
WOW!!! That was the most precious birthday ever!!! So many sweet moments! LOVED the castle, Jamie! Beautifully done! What an amazingly intimate way to celebrate Ava's 4th birthday!! I love how sweet she was with the remote control car being your gift instead of her's! Zoe and Ava looked so adorable in their princess dresses, and I'm so happy Grandma and Grandpa Perkins was there to enjoy the fun!! Thank you for sharing this beautiful memory with us, Jamie!
One minute in n I'm full on crying. I remember that first clip like it was yesterday and seeing you put in the effort to build that castle just pulled at my heartstrings.
Girl this had me crying too!!! Jamie building that castle says a lot about him! It made Jamie so happy that Ava looooooved that castle. I watched this video twice. That meant more crying!
That was amazing. Your little girls are absolutely beautiful. God bless you and your little angels. You are a great father. Wish they had more like this in the world. Happy birthday Ava. You are an amazing and caring sister. May God continue to bless you with many more birthdays. So glad you enjoy your day. Family is everything.
I think as he said financially it has to be sold, I don't think people should get in debt and end up loosing everything for sentimental reasons and kid's can live in a box with the right love and support.
@@omadjourney look at the numbers he still has great numbers, plus he can teach on use of new technology that he has mastered to offset his income. He is more capable than he thinks, I just see his girls where they feel secure.
Agree, sometimes the simplest things are best for kids. You don't have to spend a fortune on expensive kids parties. The fact that Jamie spent hours making that castle himself will mean more to Ava than all the expensive toys he could have bought for her.
Jamie, I don’t know what happened between you and your wife, but you’re a great father and the love for daughters is so amazing and genuine. They’re very blessed to have you as your dad, and the grandparents are awesome too. So sad not to see the whole family together.
Of all the birthday parties she’s had this one moved me the most. The rest while thoughtful and beautiful felt more like a production. Kids truly just appreciate the simple things in life. Happy birthday baby girl.
Yhea and I'm sure every effort was made at them parties to make it special but each to their own I will make no judgement just because parents are now co parenting both of the parents are doing well to bring such beautiful girls up
the emotion she showed on her face when she said "thank you daddy" then laid her little hand over her heart..made me cry. I have absolutely no idea what its like to have a dad. But that explained it for me....Thanks for sharing...
After watching Jamies latest video opening up about everything and now seeing this video , I just could not belive what he actually went through that day just to spend around 4 hours with her daughter's. He is a special person and an amazing father. A father every child deserves. We love and support you Jamie ❤️ Keep going
Jamie, I don’t usually comment but I’ve been following your family for years, and though I get sad when I don’t see things as they were (such is life), I wanted to let you know that I still appreciate your work and the great example you set for all fathers. Thank you sir!
Dang! Why do I have stones as eyes? My heart is definitely crying for joy and happiness and everything in between. God found the right father these precious little diamonds. Never waver, Jamie! God's love upon you from my end. God bless you!
When she said “daddy’s my best friend” I SOBBED y’all 😭😭 What a beautiful relationship you have with both Ava and Zoe. I pray every daughter gets blessed with a father as loving and caring as you.
I’ve been watching y’all for a long time. Although I’ve loved every party y’all have put together, something about this is SO SO SPECIAL. She will grow to be so proud of you no matter what.
Happy birthday Ava! Omg that little message at the beginning just melted my heart. I cried watching this video, love her reaction and her thank you for the castle. What’s the name of that toy that stretches up and down? Thank you for sharing these sweet personal memories with us. I love the story like narration of this video, and love the flash backs it’s the best thing I saw all day. Thank you 🙏 You are doing an amazing job raising these two little angels.
Kudos to you Jamie for the sweet princess birthday party for Ava. I love how you included Zoe in the festivities. You are an awesome father. I'm sure you made Ava feel special. A big shout out to Grandma and Grandpa Perkins as well. They really love the girls💕 this vlog warmed my heart. God bless you Jamie!
A father's love is like no other in the eyes of his daughter! She will always remember these wonderful and special times spent with her daddy😊❤! Simply beautiful 😢!
Yes, Mr. Perkins the song Thanksgiving has made a big here in the southern part of the US at least I am pushing the song because it truly speaks to the heart of the matter. Keep playing Thanksgiving!
Wow I actually cried when Ava said "I really love this castle. Thank you daddy" wow! My chest🥺🥺 She's such a sweet girl! Happy Birthday Ava❤️ And great job Jamie! 🙏❤️
Ooomygoodness😭😭 My heart melted all over the floor when Ava said “I really love this castle, Thank you daddy”💞💞💞 you can see she is a really appreciative kid and very grateful for everything that you do for her. I love to see it✨ Happy 4th Ava!
I so love Jamie’s interactions with his daughters. I love that this was a simple gathering. You can tell Ava enjoyed herself and felt special. Good job Jaime and grandparents. God bless you all. Happy Birthday Ava 🎉🎉
Hello Jamie I was saddened to hear about the words separation or divorce. Regardless of the bad days you both have had I bet there’s more and more good ones. It’s so easy these days to just give up and quit . You know I once was in your shoes and I could’ve given up years and years ago and took the easy way out but I knew that I took some vows that meant something to both of us. I’m glad to say we have been married for thirty eight years. Not all good but more good ones than bad. You both are such a beautiful couple with two beautiful kids. Take a breather and write ten good thing you love about Nikki and I bet there’s more good than bad and this goes for Nikki as well. I wish you both sincerely the best. Please don’t think that I’m judging but I see the hurt in both of you. Prayers and God bless to the both of you, AG
Jamie, please next time warn us to wipe out the mascara.. the whole video was very emotional. Love Grandpa and Grandma Perkins. Happy birthday sweet, smart and loving AVA.
LIFE IS TOO LONG.... RAISING KIDS ALONE ISNT AN EASY TASK.... DONT LOOSE HOPES FALL IN LOVE WITH SOMEONE WHO LOVES U WITH UR KIDS. TRY FOR ANOTHER TIME..there is never a failure again n again. LOVE FROM INDIA ❤❤
Too much onions around me at this point!!! Every little girl deserves to feel this special and you certainly did today, along with your sister. Thanks for sharing Jamie 👍🏽
Jamie can u get back with Nikki?is there even a 1℅ chance? ..I miss seeing both of u together 😣i wish things would get better between u both and we will soon get to see ur videos with Nikki in it😊
“I’m not crying, you’re crying!!” Awwwe, such a sweet & thoughtful bday video for Ava & Zoë to look back on in years to come. The best kind of well thought out present. HBD Ava, you’ve got a great Dad here!!
Jamie that castle was priceless, I'm sitting here crying like it's my birthday, continue to do your best and nothing else matter 🎈🐣💕💜🎈🎂 Happy birthday little Ava!!!
"I really love this castle, thank you daddy" I'm literally balling😭😍😍She's a sweetheart. Happy 4th Avie Aves. Great work Jamie. Castle is beautiful. Good work dad.
*Ava is such a sweet,smart, beautiful and appreciative little girl. I also love her Grandpa,he doesn't talk much but he looks like a kind gentleman and just looking at him makes me emotional,like the world needs to protect him. Jamie,you're a doting father and doing a great job. It's not easy being a single father but I hope you find happiness and satisfaction in whatever you do. I don't want to comment on your marriage but I really hope you and your children's mother would stay in good terms and be friends for the sake of your children and also for both of you. I really like the four grandparents a lot,hope they get to spend time together with their grandkids as well. All the best man,my best wishes*
Greetings Mr. Perkins, Happy Belated Birthday to Ava, As I write this I am in tears because you are such an amazing Father. I can only speak on what I see the girls are so happy with their Daddy. I am crying because my daughter just celebrated her 19th birthday and her father was not there because he passed away 6 years ago and she grieves him silently. She's doing everything that a young woman can do to navigate threw life without her father. So when she and I viewed your video tears were everywhere. Tears of joy that your baby girls have their father as an ever-present in their lives. Regardless of what life throws you, you appear to stand strong in your truth and that alone deserves respect. My daughter said that as a child Ava will remember that castle forever, she says it's the simple things in life that children remember and Ava looked so happy and pleased. You did an amazing job celebrating her day and it was very quaint and precious. I could go on and on but I won't. Continue to stand in your truth and love your children as well as your family. Stay Bless Mr. Perkins
When someone post a negative comment let’s all of us just ignore it and keep our comments going. Then they will go away because they are not getting a response. Please let’s just try it.
I just can't stand people throwing under hand shade and especially at the mother the person who carried and pushed out both them girls both parents are doing their best to co parent and love each other enough to keep things friendly because after all they made these kid not strangers them and they were made out of love
@@chantelletucker6385 yes, we know. You can't stand shade thrown at the woman who escaped to a different continent over Christmas AND new year to go party and smoke shisha in the clubs while leaving her children back home. You just can't stand it yeah? I'm sure if it was Jamie doing this, you would be pointing fingers already. A woman who allowed false rumors, harmful rumors swirl wildly about her ex husband AND allowed them to be commented all over her social media that he had to come out to dismiss them in a video. Which she never spoke out to deny. She trusts him with her children but silently made us believe he was abusive by letting those rumors fly. Yeah oh no bad bad if any shade goes toward the woman claiming to want a "Godly" husband but partying and drinking with her single friends. Be real and just say you don't want her to be held responsible because you side with her. If Jamie did this, people would be going wild
What bullshit you talking if she wants to go holiday that is her business and it wasn't her fault that people want to make up shit bout him and her relationship like they in it jump to conclusions like you say she leave her children to go smoke. I support both of them they are both good parents and no body should be throwing shade on either of them So you crack on with your negative I be over here rooting for both of them Peace and light
Absolutely loved the simplicity of the party. You dont need to have the perfect party with everything matching etc. This was beautiful, cosy and full of love. Well done Jamie. Keep going, you are doing amazing.
Jamie you are such a good daddy. Ava will watch this video years to come and she will know that she is so blessed to have a dad like you. She is also blessed to have Christian grandparents that are there for them and supportive of her dad. May God continue to bless and keep you all together in His love.
What a lovely Bday celebration for AVA🎂I always can’t stop crying when I see u Jamie with the kids. How ur kids love and adore u and vice versa. I love it when Ava said “THANK YOU DADDY” So proud of u Jamie.You’re the BEST DAD for ur children. You’re videos with ur kids are so heartwarming and it always touch my heart. Love u guys. You give me lots of happiness and joy watching ur videos. The kids are amazing and growing up so fast. Zoe and Ava are so adorable and sweet. Happy Birthday my dear AVA🎂🎉🎊🙏❤️Wishing you all the BEST and May you’ll always be the daughter your parents will be proud of. Stay sweet, loving and beautiful❤️❤️❤️
Jamie you are such great value, don't let anyone tell you otherwise, God does not judge or condemn you in any way, it's the enemy using people that are open to him, the accuser. You are so loved and appreciated. ..... and so blessed by all, that long to see a father's love for his little ones in action. Don't forget to look after yourself and your inner heart needs as well, so you can continue being that amazing dad, that you are. God loves you so much.
Its just so crazy to me how they were in love and created a family. Something happened between them and they decided to get a divorce. But they can't come together to celebrate. It just makes me wonder does that love just go away
@@heyyerica5873 i don't believe that love just goes away I believe Nikki was unhappy for a long time. I remember saying, It seems that Jamie loves her more than she does him... I wish they didn't go through whatever it was. I loved seeing their family unit😔
Seems like Jamie had Ava 2 days before her birthday to celebrate and on the day of her birthday she was with her mom. She shared some pics on instastories. It probably pained Nikki that she couldn't do a big party this year I know that was her thing.
OMGoodness. The manners and gratitude that emulates from Ava and Zoey is just breath taking. Manners are so important. Jamie.. Best Dad ever. This is one of your best videos ever. From all the Princesses who didnt have a hands on Dad. "KUDOS TO YOU" Mr. Jamie Perkins.
Jamie is a cool dad I love AVE she's so cute and sweet because she love the castle , is amazing seeing them happy to little girls 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰.I nearly cryed because she said thank you is emotional . Happy birthday AVE love yeh also I enjoyed the video.😘😘😘😘😘😘
Oh, Jamie! I haven't finished watching, and I'm already crying. I took one look at the pink castle and lost it. Thank you for ALWAYS going out of your way to make your kids feel special. So proud of you. Sending you so much luv all the way from the ATL.
This really brought tears to my eyes. You're the best Dad ever and Ava and Zoe will forever appreciate you. You have given them the best memories and a security that they will always cherish. It's so great that your parents were there as well. What a wonderful blessing!
Aww Jamie, that was so sweet, taking the time to build that castle. It reminds me of the crafts Nikki always used to make. Remember when she made that jar filled with tiny little handmade love notes? And Zoey banging her head to the music . . . ADORABLE! The time you spend with them is exactly what kids need. Keep it up, Jamie.
Omg..can’t control the tears. It was such a nice birthday surprise Jamie. You are the BEST dad ever. The girls are lucky to have you. Bless you
Hes is indeed
I know he did such a good job
Diya Ali he’s doing amazing! ✨
It is easy to be a fun dad when you have them 4 days a month😊
God bless you
Jamie: "Do you like it?"
Ava: "I surely do like it!"
She's 4 and she says beautiful things like that. Ava has always impressed me. Such a smart, sweet and independent kid. Happy birthday, Ava! You're so special
Well Stated 🙏👏🏽
Nikki is selfish.
@@TiMalice2009 How is Nikki selfish?
TiMalice2009 yes, please tell us how shes selfish 🤔 I’d love to know.
@@TiMalice2009 , Why was that even necessary? Did it make you feel better? From looking at those 2 beautiful well adjusted little girls, it's apparent that BOTH Nikki and Jamie are good parents. It really doesn't have to be one or the other you know.
I'm tearing up! I love how Ava was so grateful and she can see her dad is trying hard. When she said "thank you I love it" :'(
I literally cried so hard to this. 😢 especially when Ava said “you built this all by yourself? Thank you Daddy!”
I struggled to hold back tears when she said that too. Also when I found out she had asked my dad to buy me a remote control car for her birthday too. That got me in my feelings
Jamie Perkins Wow. You have truly done an amazing job raising her and Zoe Jamie. I can tell. I’ve been a supporter here since she was born and it’s so heart warming to see how much she has grown to be so intelligent, sweet, respectful and caring. We see your love and dedication to your children, It’s so beautiful to watch.
Me too😭😭😭..I was like wait a minute what is happening. ..then more😢😢😭😭😭😭.i think the sincere thankyou got me.
Such an incredible person and both girls are just the two most beautiful souls. Protect their spirit at all cost, because we know this world can be so harsh.❤️
@@JamiePerkins I thought that was so cool that Zoe got to help open presents, she got a present (necklace) and you got a present! It was your "birth day" too!
“I really love this castle, thank you Daddy”
That part was honestly the sweetest🥺😭
Ditto! I said "awwww" when Ava said that, my heart!
she has such good vocabulary and excellent manners 😁
It honestly was it makes you think about how great of a man he is ugh 😩 my heart is melting so sincere gosh ❤️
When Ava said thank you for the castle 😭😭😭 she is SO appreciative of everything you do. It's really sweet to see.
I think the same.
I managed to not cry the whole 10 minutes then ava saying Daddy's my best friend wrecked me! Happy birthday, sweet girl.
Hopefuldreamer20 I def didn’t manage
The end had me tearing up!
Every girl should have such a great daddy
I'm 3 minutes in and trying to hold it together

Beautiful even in its simplicity compared to the last one
Couldn’t agree more. It’s the most heartfelt and endearing of all their Birthdays to date. Great job Dad❤️👏🏽
Jamie, I don’t know what happened between you and your wife, but you’re a great father and the love for daughters is so amazing and genuine. They’re very blessed to have you as your dad, and the grandparents are awesome too. So sad not to see the whole family together.
Keep striving... I this was absolutely a heartwarming video
What happen? Where Nicki they no mora together?
Hope they are together
Of all the birthday parties she’s had this one moved me the most. The rest while thoughtful and beautiful felt more like a production. Kids truly just appreciate the simple things in life. Happy birthday baby girl.
I agree!
Also, she is old enough now to appreciate this effort. The castle and all. She understands.

I so love Jamie’s interactions with his daughters. I love that this was a simple gathering. You can tell Ava enjoyed herself and felt special. Good job Jaime and grandparents. God bless you all.
Happy Birthday Ava 🎉🎉
The simplicity was impressive...true story. ❣️
Hello Jamie
I was saddened to hear about the words separation or divorce. Regardless of the bad days you both have had I bet there’s more and more good ones. It’s so easy these days to just give up and quit . You know I once was in your shoes and I could’ve given up years and years ago and took the easy way out but I knew that I took some vows that meant something to both of us. I’m glad to say we have been married for thirty eight years. Not all good but more good ones than bad. You both are such a beautiful couple with two beautiful kids. Take a breather and write ten good thing you love about Nikki and I bet there’s more good than bad and this goes for Nikki as well. I wish you both sincerely the best. Please don’t think that I’m judging but I see the hurt in both of you.
Prayers and God bless to the both of you,
AG
Jamie, please next time warn us to wipe out the mascara.. the whole video was very emotional. Love Grandpa and Grandma Perkins. Happy birthday sweet, smart and loving AVA.
The overload of cuteness in this video between jamie being a great dad to the girls to the grandparents ugh my heart 🥺❤️
LIFE IS TOO LONG.... RAISING KIDS ALONE ISNT AN EASY TASK.... DONT LOOSE HOPES FALL IN LOVE WITH SOMEONE WHO LOVES U WITH UR KIDS. TRY FOR ANOTHER TIME..there is never a failure again n again.
LOVE FROM INDIA ❤❤
Too much onions around me at this point!!! Every little girl deserves to feel this special and you certainly did today, along with your sister. Thanks for sharing Jamie 👍🏽
It breaks my heart to see them not celebrate all together 💔
Right, how hard was that.
Give them time. I'm sure it wasn't easy for them either 🙏
They could be much happier apart. I see huge smiles on everyone face including the girls. Life moves on.
Me too
Jamie can u get back with Nikki?is there even a 1℅ chance?
..I miss seeing both of u together 😣i wish things would get better between u both and we will soon get to see ur videos with Nikki in it😊
"I really Love this Castle 🏰 thank you Daddy" Ava is such a sweet heart the look on her face melted my heart 👍 up Jamie you're a WONDERFUL Dad🤗
I'm about to cry! YOU ARE AN AMAZING DAD, MAN AND HUMAN BEING! YOU'RE UA-cam'S #1 DAD & MAN!
“I’m not crying, you’re crying!!” Awwwe, such a sweet & thoughtful bday video for Ava & Zoë to look back on in years to come. The best kind of well thought out present. HBD Ava, you’ve got a great Dad here!!
The last clip got me man... I can see you wanted to cry because of how proud you are of both Ava and Zoe. Happy Birthday Ava 🥳🥳
I’m not going to lie to you.I shed a tear on the drive back
Jamie that castle was priceless, I'm sitting here crying like it's my birthday, continue to do your best and nothing else matter 🎈🐣💕💜🎈🎂 Happy birthday little Ava!!!
It made me cry when ava said daddy is my best friend, at the end... such a good father she got
Ava “I really love this castle Dad, thank you.” OMG! My heart melts. Ava is such a sweet and loving girl. Happy Birthday Ava 💞
This was so beautiful to watch and listen to❤ Just goes to show you don't need to go all extravagant. Sometimes simple does just perfectly💫
When he said every princess needs a castle 😭 Jamie is such a good dad
"I really love this castle, thank you daddy" I'm literally balling😭😍😍She's a sweetheart. Happy 4th Avie Aves. Great work Jamie. Castle is beautiful. Good work dad.
Lovely💪💪 dad keep up.
Jaime is such an amazingggg father! ❤️🥺
That princess fort 🌸🌷🌸 she’s going to remember that even when she’s older so sweet
Jamie ur an amazing Dad and u have done an excellent job,may God be with u all along the way mostly in such a time as this.Lots of love to ur family
When Ava said thank you daddy for the castle my heart melted ❤️❤️. Happy birthday Ava 🎂 3:05
*Ava is such a sweet,smart, beautiful and appreciative little girl. I also love her Grandpa,he doesn't talk much but he looks like a kind gentleman and just looking at him makes me emotional,like the world needs to protect him. Jamie,you're a doting father and doing a great job. It's not easy being a single father but I hope you find happiness and satisfaction in whatever you do. I don't want to comment on your marriage but I really hope you and your children's mother would stay in good terms and be friends for the sake of your children and also for both of you. I really like the four grandparents a lot,hope they get to spend time together with their grandkids as well. All the best man,my best wishes*
Great advice.
When she said "Daddys my best friend" at the end, and pointed at you, oh the tears! Your such a good dad!
He’s such a great father !
Greetings Mr. Perkins,
Happy Belated Birthday to Ava, As I write this I am in tears because you are such an amazing Father. I can only speak on what I see the girls are so happy with their Daddy. I am crying because my daughter just celebrated her 19th birthday and her father was not there because he passed away 6 years ago and she grieves him silently. She's doing everything that a young woman can do to navigate threw life without her father. So when she and I viewed your video tears were everywhere. Tears of joy that your baby girls have their father as an ever-present in their lives.
Regardless of what life throws you, you appear to stand strong in your truth and that alone deserves respect. My daughter said that as a child Ava will remember that castle forever, she says it's the simple things in life that children remember and Ava looked so happy and pleased. You did an amazing job celebrating her day and it was very quaint and precious. I could go on and on but I won't.
Continue to stand in your truth and love your children as well as your family.
Stay Bless Mr. Perkins
Jamie u are d best, keep doing what you're doing tomake your babies happy God bless you
Happy birthday Ava
Well said
Jamie, do you listen to Aaron Neville? Listen to his version of STAND BY ME. Let me know what you think. I am 76 yo and I still love his singing.
Yes I too love that song
I liked seeing the parties in the past. But THIS I LOVE! this too me....is so much better and heartfelt. Amazing!💙💜
Hush yo shady butt up
When someone post a negative comment let’s all of us just ignore it and keep our comments going. Then they will go away because they are not getting a response. Please let’s just try it.
I just can't stand people throwing under hand shade and especially at the mother the person who carried and pushed out both them girls both parents are doing their best to co parent and love each other enough to keep things friendly because after all they made these kid not strangers them and they were made out of love
@@chantelletucker6385 yes, we know. You can't stand shade thrown at the woman who escaped to a different continent over Christmas AND new year to go party and smoke shisha in the clubs while leaving her children back home. You just can't stand it yeah? I'm sure if it was Jamie doing this, you would be pointing fingers already. A woman who allowed false rumors, harmful rumors swirl wildly about her ex husband AND allowed them to be commented all over her social media that he had to come out to dismiss them in a video. Which she never spoke out to deny. She trusts him with her children but silently made us believe he was abusive by letting those rumors fly. Yeah oh no bad bad if any shade goes toward the woman claiming to want a "Godly" husband but partying and drinking with her single friends. Be real and just say you don't want her to be held responsible because you side with her. If Jamie did this, people would be going wild
@@tessymay933 thank u! 👏
What bullshit you talking if she wants to go holiday that is her business and it wasn't her fault that people want to make up shit bout him and her relationship like they in it jump to conclusions like you say she leave her children to go smoke. I support both of them they are both good parents and no body should be throwing shade on either of them
So you crack on with your negative I be over here rooting for both of them
Peace and light
Tessy May wtf are you talking about ?? Sound like a jealous girl , don’t you ?
I love how Ava told his daddy she loved the castle and was so thankful, it made me cryyyy😭😭😍❤❤❤
Me too she 's absolutely beautiful as well as Zoey I love them
Absolutely loved the simplicity of the party. You dont need to have the perfect party with everything matching etc. This was beautiful, cosy and full of love. Well done Jamie. Keep going, you are doing amazing.
Oh you so right in everything you observed. I can only join you in this statement.
Yep
Jamie you are such a good daddy. Ava will watch this video years to come and she will know that she is so blessed to have a dad like you. She is also blessed to have Christian grandparents that are there for them and supportive of her dad. May God continue to bless and keep you all together in His love.
What a lovely Bday celebration for AVA🎂I always can’t stop crying when I see u Jamie with the kids. How ur kids love and adore u and vice versa. I love it when Ava said “THANK YOU DADDY” So proud of u Jamie.You’re the BEST DAD for ur children. You’re videos with ur kids are so heartwarming and it always touch my heart. Love u guys. You give me lots of happiness and joy watching ur videos. The kids are amazing and growing up so fast. Zoe and Ava are so adorable and sweet. Happy Birthday my dear AVA🎂🎉🎊🙏❤️Wishing you all the BEST and May you’ll always be the daughter your parents will be proud of. Stay sweet, loving and beautiful❤️❤️❤️
Dunno why this video makes me sad, that this used to be a happy family that does things together but now...happy birthday Avie, God bless you
Amaka Amaechi me too, I thought they would at least get together for her birthday.
I felt that way too. This separation is really bad for this family
Jamie your narration has made me cry from the first minute to the last. God bless you
I was emotional before you picked the girls up. The smiles on their faces and so much love. This is one of your best videos to date! ❤❤❤❤
This is EVERYTHING. The love. The smiles. The laughs. The memories. Happy Birthday Ava. ❤️
Jamie you are such great value, don't let anyone tell you otherwise, God does not judge or condemn you in any way, it's the enemy using people that are open to him, the accuser.
You are so loved and appreciated. ..... and so blessed by all, that long to see a father's love for his little ones in action.
Don't forget to look after yourself and your inner heart needs as well, so you can continue being that amazing dad, that you are.
God loves you so much.
This is everything. Well done Jamie, great great dad.
Hopefully one day Jamie and Nikki can come together and celebrate one big birthday party. That would be nice. Happy Cake Day, Ava🎂🎉🎈🎁💙🇺🇸
Its just so crazy to me how they were in love and created a family. Something happened between them and they decided to get a divorce. But they can't come together to celebrate. It just makes me wonder does that love just go away
@@heyyerica5873 i don't believe that love just goes away I believe Nikki was unhappy for a long time. I remember saying, It seems that Jamie loves her more than she does him... I wish they didn't go through whatever it was. I loved seeing their family unit😔
@@heyyerica5873 what does etching mean?
@Trina Jacobs my parents broke up around Ava's age. Well it took 20 years until they celebrated my birthday together
Seems like Jamie had Ava 2 days before her birthday to celebrate and on the day of her birthday she was with her mom. She shared some pics on instastories. It probably pained Nikki that she couldn't do a big party this year I know that was her thing.
OMGoodness. The manners and gratitude that emulates from Ava and Zoey is just breath taking. Manners are so important. Jamie.. Best Dad ever. This is one of your best videos ever. From all the Princesses who didnt have a hands on Dad. "KUDOS TO YOU" Mr. Jamie Perkins.
Jamie is a cool dad I love AVE she's so cute and sweet because she love the castle , is amazing seeing them happy to little girls 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰.I nearly cryed because she said thank you is emotional . Happy birthday AVE love yeh also I enjoyed the video.😘😘😘😘😘😘
Oh, Jamie! I haven't finished watching, and I'm already crying. I took one look at the pink castle and lost it. Thank you for ALWAYS going out of your way to make your kids feel special. So proud of you. Sending you so much luv all the way from the ATL.
This really brought tears to my eyes. You're the best Dad ever and Ava and Zoe will forever appreciate you. You have given them the best memories and a security that they will always cherish. It's so great that your parents were there as well. What a wonderful blessing!
wow i remember when Ava was born 🥺 happy birthday Avie ❣️❣️❣️
Grand ma Perkins are really a kool grandma also grandpa, JAMIE YOU ARE One of the kool dads!! Lol happy birthday Ava!!
Aww Jamie, that was so sweet, taking the time to build that castle. It reminds me of the crafts Nikki always used to make. Remember when she made that jar filled with tiny little handmade love notes? And Zoey banging her head to the music . . . ADORABLE! The time you spend with them is exactly what kids need. Keep it up, Jamie.
Jamie,
You are a kind and caring dad. This video brought tears to my eyes. I know God has a beautiful future waiting for you.
