Food Neglect is a very sad thing. I am sure the parents make sure there is plenty of food in the house and it is readily available. I would not be surprised if the children hoard food in their rooms. Bless their little hearts.
I am glad the kids were allowed to speak about there tragic past! It’s important for healing. They have endured a lot! I bet they are well behaved! Grateful!
Love those babies!! I have a sibling group of five myself ( waiting for final on number five), and I have always though that I have been the one who is blessed. They mean the world to me. Cannot explain the happiness they bring.
Gosh the fact that they still believe in Santa. My foster son was 5 and he told me Santa isn't real, he's never come to our house. I told him look, yes, mommy's and daddy's buy the presents, but Santa comes to you every year, if your sad, he'll sprinkle some happiness on you, if you need courage, he'll sprinkle you with courage, he brings the gifts you can't see. He said ohhh, that makes so much more sense, and seemed relieved that Santa had been coming every year.
@leegordon5223 it broke my heart to see a kid that little think that when it wasn't like a religion thing, had it been I'd have respected that but man it was hard to hear, had to do some fast thinking lol. I'm glad we can still believe in a different way as we get older.
These kids are so special. What a wonderful story that they got a home they deserved where they're loved and appreciated for the great people they are ♥️
I would love to know what age they were fostered with their new family and how long it took to get all the siblings together under one roof. So great they have permanent home and routine, so important to children. The stress these children lived with not knowing where their next meal would come from, getting to an age when they begin to realise that they were not in a normal family situation, not being able to get to school, thank goodness they were taken out of that situation and finally found a family willing to adopt. Would like to know how they are doing now, some must be of college age.
I always wanted to adopt, no matter age, gender or race. Just to have the child know that the child will always have unconditional love and support home with love of a family. But, instead my daughter had a best friend that was staying with us months on end, and to me, she was my second daughter. Understood how parents feel having 2 teenage girls in one house.
I love it when families adopt all siblings so they won't
be separated.
I feel it should always be that way.
GOD BLESS THIS PRECIOUS FAMILY.
This is the best thing I’ve seen !!! A lot of spoiled children around need to see this !!!!
it would be nice to get an update dont you think?

There is going to be grief in the mix, which can show in some interesting ways.

If only the Turpin children were so lucky.

I love this a lot about you all taking in seven kids just saying that now
Dad is real santa
Can you please repeat the first story of the children's lives with their birth parents before the adoption have not seen it
Please keep an eye out not all homes are a good home 😢bless Jordan
Maybe they should allow adoption to other states… 🤷🏻
What do the parents do for a living to afford 7 kids 😂
❤❤❤❤
