Meet The Couple That Adopted 6 Foster Siblings: ‘These Are Our Babies’ | Megyn Kelly TODAY
When Alo started crying I was like “that’s a real man.”
Devon Craney “that’s a real man”*
That’s the best man you could ever hope for.
He is a real man you're right!
She's a beautiful mum!!
A really man?
When her husband started to cry😭😭😭
God bless their hearts
Me To Suzy its one thing when you see the wife cry but for me when i saw him cry as a man that touched me so much what amazing people these two are, and when she said its all of them or none of them because she didn't want to split them up wow great family!!!
Men are the true romantic.

I am sobbing!!!
My foster mother also adopted me and my 4 younger siblings out of foster care. 🙇🏻♀️ the only person that ever cared for me in my life ❤️ May she Rest In Peace. GOD BLESS THIS FAMILY FR!
Soy IRY - So happy for you. Your mom’s an angel. Xoxo
I'm crying 😭 I'm so happy for you
Sorry for ur loss, but thank u for sharing ur story, god bless u and ur family, especially if 4 siblings
God bless youuu ❤️❤️❤️
❤️
I was separated from my baby sister, as she was so little I was told it was best for her to go alone, it would be easier for her to be adopted, she was and I haven’t seen her since, I never got fostered or adopted, and now live in accommodation without anyone. I hope she’s happy, I love her so much ❤️
jessie x: I pray one day you find her.💕🙏🏻
Maybe u can find someone that can help you find her. I’m sorry u didn’t get adopted. These videos must be especially hard for you. Just know you deserved a family every bit as much as your sister or these kids. I pray you can find some supportive older people. Seek them out! God bless you !
I am steuggling to understand why would someone think it is ok to separate siblings. It just does not make sense to me
Khadhri Khan it’s easier to place a younger child, it jsut means one will live a happier life at the sake of the other never seeing Another a sibling again
@@jessiemia3100 Thank you dear for the explanation.
But I must say, it feels to me like, in the end not many parents have good intention when adopting and the agencies officials are mostly interested in their figures, not the children happiness. Siblings should be kept together, being adopted is already a change situation to be goung through as a child/young person, on top of that you are stripped of the remaining stability/known environment you have. This is just too much I believe for a young person. I understand why the couple adopted all the siblings, and I applaude them for that.
This made me cry when they talked about calling them mum and dad.
Same I cried so hard
Did anyone else cry?
Definitely
yes
Yes 😢😢😢😢
Not physically but on the inside
Yes😭
im on a Adoption story video marathon, keep em coming!!
If you are queuing for adoption, just wait. It will be the most amazing ride of your existence. 🙏🏼🎈😻😍🥰🤪🙈😍😍
Me too
Cynnx7 if you’re still watching adoption videos, check out The Crazy Middles and The Crazy Pieces channels if you haven’t already! I found them while binging adoption videos a few months ago. They have huge families with adopted children and they’re such wonderful families to watch!
Me tooooo😂I am so happy
Me too🙋
Omg love an emotional father that can show his emotions like that
Polynesian men have really big hearts
Diys Y helluva man
I do, too! It's a blessing to be able to Feel!
I just more men could express their feelings without other men (or women) telling them to "man up."
I have been mom to my son since he was 3. One day while I was at work his dad called me. Said our son was talking about me, called me mom, then stopped and looked nervous. His dad told him he can call me mom instead of Miss Niki. He screamed with joy and ran around the house. When his dad told me I was bawling at my desk. Then everyone that asked why I was crying ended up crying. It's an amazing moment when a kid that isn't biologically yours calls you mom. Bless this beautiful family. They now know that special feeling.
I can tell an islander when I see one. He's heart is genuine. God bless tbeir family.
I had close friends in high school that were Polynesian and when I met their families, they treated me like a fellow family member with endless hugs and serving upon serving of food ❤. That's real love
Yup and "Utah" was a dead giveaway.
@@prankgirl9112 yes there are many Polynesian families out here
A truly selfless couple. You gave hope and love to six children who badly needed it. We need more couple like you in this world.
I love the father. He’s so kind and nuturing. Mom is too.
Polynesian culture is absolutely beautiful. They love everyone period!
@@bravoprojectrunwayfans not true ask the rock
Yes He really loves his Wife, FIRST, WHY all this GOODNESS happened 🤗He Took those VOWS seriously ❤️
Adoption is the most beautiful thing. I actually have 7 friends who are adopted. If it weren't for the parents who adopted them, I'd would never have met them. They are a blessing to be friends with!!
Why would anyone give this a thumbs down. These are the thyme of people that are doing Gods work. What a blessing they are to the sweet babies.
I was thinking the SAME thing. Ashley & Alo are amazing people and parents to their 6 beautiful children!
When he cried about them calling him dad, it made me cry. Its beautiful, makes me think I can take on more than I thought!! God bless u guys. Congrats!!
What sweet people. 6 kids is a lot and some with special needs isn’t easy.
Honestly this is normal for Tongans to adopt children, especially in his circumstances where the woman wasn’t able to bare children. The only difference is, we usually adopt inside the family. It’s usually a family member who isn’t able to care for a child or the children and give it to the family member who is more stable. It’s common Tongan adopt, just usually within our own families. It’s beautiful to see this Tongan, go outside of his family and help.
Yo Bo ur actually annoying and so irrelevant
Lol sorry ma bad. Stupid joke on my part. peace
Now that’s a beautiful tradition!
This is true! In Australia, we have a high amount of Tongan or even Samoan people, this is something i've noticed that they do. It's lovely!
Angelina L while white people pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to conceive sickly kids who should have never been born. Smfh
What an amazing couple! 💜 We’re in the middle of an international adoption so this hit home - thank you for sharing!
Good luck
Good luck with your adoption so far. Can I just ask you why so many people choose to adopt outside of there own country. I watch alot of those gotcha day vlogs with international adoption I guess I find them really touching and beautiful stories to watch. But they never really explain why they chose a different country etc. I'm not asking anyones personal reasons just general question.
Congratulations and thank you. I was adopted and I am so very grateful for my family. 💕💕💕
KD Campbell Thanks for the kind words! ♥️
Respect💗💗💗💗💗😁🌻🌺🌻🌺🌺
The older ones look only a few years younger than the parents.
One of them is at least 20. They all aren't kids.
Ikr when i first saw the pic i was thinkng, which one is the mom and dad??
You can see for one second the year they were born. The oldest was 1997, so when they adopted he was probably 16-17
0 5 he is also special needs
doreal the older ones have special needs so legally they are dependent
Love this! Adopt instead of doing IVF. There are so many kids that need a home and loving family.
Yes love to adopt
Did you adopt?
N B yes! My mom went through so much ivf and I’ve been fascinated with adoption for as long as I can remember. And I remember being so confused why she was spending so much time and money on these crazy procedures instead of just adopting!
Then don't just go after couples who can't conceive naturally. Then say adopt instead of having children all together.
Love your profile pic
If I ever change my mind about having kids, I want to adopt. There are so many children out there that need loving parents. I’m glad these siblings got to stay together
Such a powerful story..i went to high school with alo!!.. bless your heart guys 😊
Who's chopping onions? 😭😭😭
We all are ✋🏻
Big brother is enthralled by sisters account. So cute. They all look so well cared for.
That’s called unconditional love ♥️🙏🏽🙏🏽
Yes! God IS Love!
Wow this man is wonderful. His wife amazing. These kids are the luckiest children ever. This is an amazing happily ever after. The kids wanting to be permanently thier children. This made me cry so much my heart hurt. God bless you two
Love, love, love!!! I’m at over 3.5 years waiting to adopt my sons from foster care, I can totally understand when they say they’ve always been our kids but then after adoption they’re ours forever! I can’t wait until that day ❤️ (I’ve also got their 1 yr old twin siblings I’m hoping to adopt as well AND I’m a single mama!!) I love them!
Tara C oh my god you’re an angel!! Thank you!! How wonderful!! 💓💓💓
Amazing! Blessings and love to you! 💕💕💕
You go girl
tenderlovingtara .. thanks dear..
No, they haven't always been yours. They have a mother, father & two sides of a family already. Why do you people pretend these children have no history or CURRENT family other than the ones who adopted them?
we need more people like Olo and Ashley in the world.
I adore this couple for having a big heart to those kids who are not related to them. They may not be blessed for having their own children but people like them have a special place in heaven for taking care of their adopted children as their own.
A New Love Official .... shut up
A New Love Official - They are blessed, and these kids are their own. Nice try, with your ignorant and shady comment.
Love this story! As an adoptive parent myself, it’s good for me to remember where we started! What a beautiful family!!

2:51 they now have a father.. 😍
The mother is absolutely jaw droppingly gorgeous.
Such a beautiful loving family.. ASHLEY LOOKS LIKE THE ACTRESS JENNIFER GARNER
Fatima Chelsea Shah miller ummm not seeing that at all
Not even a little
U mean Jennifer Lawrence
She also looks a lot like Melisa Gilbert
Younger Amanda bynes*
Having been in the system with my siblings, and knowing judges wanted us together and kept us together, this made me teary-eyed. When you're separated from your family, your brothers and sisters mean the world to you.
Awe the husband started to cry ;-; bless 'em.
He didn't say 'I always wanted a child' .. he said he wanted something for her that her body couldn't give her... are there really such sweet wonderful men out there?
Ok when he cried telling the interviewer about the fist time they called him dad I broke down 🥺 this is so beautiful
I grew up with Ashley because her sister was one of my best friends! She is an absolutely amazing woman!
Another selfless couple that kept a family, siblings together. Heaven sent!
Ashley and Alo are beautiful people so are their children. Wishing their whole family well.
These are an amazing couple this is beautiful. Their family is beautiful.
You are amazing people. I am sure you will raise wonderful children.
Yes they will 🙏🙏💝
start a vloggg
Eno they are Mormon so most likely there is one. It’s what us Mormons do... family blogs or vlogs.
I’m sorry but family vlogs are a REALLY bad thing to be promoting. It’s not a good thing to be pushing, and it’s an awful environment for those small kids, them just being pushed into the spotlight. And yes I know, these kids are already on TV so what’s the difference? But I think having a daily or even weekly channel will get in the way of the entire family’s personal lives and the parent obviously have jobs so that would be a large distraction.
I’m not trying to smack you down in any way, I’m not trying to be mean and if you thought that I’m really sorry.
Just maybe don’t ask to and promote family UA-cam channels
Shawn Jones, how do you know they are Mormon? And I really don’t think just because someone is Mormon they have a blog, that’s like saying all Catholics are really likely to have their own website “it’s what us Catholics do”
(I’m not catholic by the way)
@@gracienoblw3507 that comment was really funny. I know it wasn't supposed to be but I just found that hilarious 😂
Ikr
when he said how he felt when his kid called him dad i got tears
This man has the biggest heart ever. Wow. I want one.
What a beautiful story! I was in tears the whole time. God bless this beautiful family.
Gah, I'm bawling my eyes out, feeding so humbled at how open hearted this couple is. Taking in any child is a huge change but to take this many at once is truly inspiring.. Proving what I've always said, babies aren't the only children in need of parents, a home, love. Such a beautiful family
Mad respect. I have a special needs little boy. It takes so much love patience and dedication. Not just anyone can do it. Thank you so very much
Takes special people to adopt and love a child like their own
This brought tears to my eyes I have 6 siblings and only know 2 of them the other 4 have been taken by the system and I pray one day I cross paths with each of them this is so special these people have big loving hearts!
When brother said I want a big family you know he is from the Pacific. Thank you brother Oli. And thank you to your brother sitting there in the crowd with the white shirt for bringing these kids to you. Much Love from your Pacific Familyy
I’m a 30 year old woman, but I want to be adopted by them too! Incredible parents.
What a beautiful expression of love! Blessings to you all!💕
bawling my eyes out right now - beautiful story
These parents are such good people!! This story made my day!!
These are nice people who are beyond heroes and now a true family.
Some couples are such amazing people on this earth.
Beautiful story and an amazing couple. Warms my heart that these siblings get to stay together.
We're all so sentimental these days...I'm crying I don't know about you...it fills my heart with joy... because so much bad happens these days as well... happiness is contagious and I'm so happy for them...this is uplifting...brightened my day ! lol
A colleague of mine has the same condition as hers, and she had a baby after 10 long years! It was a miracle! According to her, after years of trying to conceive, they stopped and just leave everything to God. And miraculously had a baby without an effort. Her baby is going 2 now and named her Miracle. ❤️ So, don't lose hope ❤️
How can you not like this story. I think their story is a blessing.
I cried so much. I always wanted a family and wanted to be adopted but I never was. Id give anything to have a family but Im still alone. It does affect you everyday because you question your worth that no one wanted you. Its also extremely difficult because being alone desiring a family but you see so many other happy famies like this one. You pray to God every day.
Im extremely grateful and happy for every family that is able to make a difference and love. Love does make a difference and save lives!
They should start a UA-cam channel.Very kind couple.
Truly amazing people. God bless this family
That’s what a lot of people said.. it was easy to become a parents but it was hard to become a Mom and Dad.. much respect to this couple❤️
What a lovely couple! So warm and loving and funny...with the biggest hearts. The world is a better place because of people like them!
Anyone who opens up their heart like this really are the true heroes of the world ❤
Beautiful people, beautiful story. 😍
I'm trying so hard to become a foster parent. Pray for me because I have been targeted for ridiculous things. That make no sense to anyone. I'm in the home stretch tho and no weapon formed against me shall prosper and every tongue that rises against me God shall condemn. Beautiful story!! Thanks for sharing! I cried all the way thru.
„That‘s what mom and dad taught us“
😭😭😭
That is so sweet. They are so kind. God bless this family. 👪
Bless their heart's adopting special children isn't easy.
You can tell this man really loves his wife because I know some people who would get up and leave a relationship if something got in the way of them having kids, which is so unbelievably sad seeing that there are so many options out there including adoption. And there are so many kids in foster care that need a home.
Beautiful moment when a Dad tears up....
This mom and dad are Earth angels
WOW
what a great couple
most people get a divorce when one of them is not able to have a child (men leave most of the time)
kudos for this husband and may God bless them
they have a good heart !!!
Beautiful people to adopt these beautiful siblings and not break them up. We definitely more people like them, so much love ❤️.... Love Love
Mom n Dad taught them to have an open home, awe.
What a great, awesome husband. He loves his wife and they're gift to these children.
These people are amazing!!! I know people usually want to adopt small children but they saw no age. I love this,they didn’t give up on the older kids. 💯 God Bless Them! ❤️
Thank you so much for taking these kids in adopting them
God Bless them all! Such a beautiful story!
There such loving and caring couple bless them take all 6 children special needs bless them all what a BEAUTIFUL couple and beautiful family they are heroes bless them all amen
This couple has the midst kind heart ♥ in the world. May God bless you and guarantee happiness for you 😍😍😍
I'm glad they opened their home to these children! Very special people ❤️
Oh God. I love these stories, even if they make me cry. 😢
Bless this family with many wonderful memories.
Good evening Sherrie 🌹 how're you doing tonight ❤️
Brave people..pious souls..God bless them..
HOLY MOLI thats an instant BIG FAMILY!!! God Bless them all❤️
This isn't just a family of 6 siblings, it's a family 6 times bigger and better with much more love to share.
What a wonderful example of the meaning of family.
God bless your beautiful family, wishing you all lots of joy and happiness in all that you do. All the way from the UK 🇬🇧 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
when he said he was tonga i was like omg omg omg OMG this is a beautiful famiy😇😇😇😱😱😱😱
These stories are so good for the human heart and spirit. We’ve adopted out of foster care and we also have 4 of our own biological. I will never turn away a child needing a family. We’re not perfect but we can offer love, safety, a warm bed and a big family. ❤️ I pray everyone would be moved to help children in the foster system
These people are going straight to the good place
I had severe endometriosis and wasn’t able to conceive naturally. We adopted a 2 year old girl. 6 months later I just told my doctor to take my uterus out! I was a MOTHER and was, am and will forever be in love with our daughter! Period.
this was so incredibly sweet- definitely shed some tears
I need to stop watching these videos at work. 😭😭😭
Sammmmeee
Andrea Johnson LoL really? Crying at your desk? 😂😂😂
This couple have hearts of gold there beautiful on the inside as well as on the outside God bless them
They made me cry😭😭😭 God bless you both 🙏🏻💖🌹🕊️
Needed this today.. What a beautiful story, and thank you for sharing what love and family is all about!!!! Allowing others to hopefully learn a little something from yr story...
This couple has big hearts. Much less 6 and some with special needs. I pray the government or Go-Fund-Me helps them. God bless them.
