    Having her arms crossed like that and still allowing him to hold her; she is literally putting all of her trust into this man. Very very vulnerable time for her. Keep up the work, dad. So awesome.

      @lockgam Рік тому +23

      In my opinion, I think it was the energy of having her siblings there. Siblings can have very different relationships than others, and I believe that in this particular case it might have been more comfortable to have just the father and mother in the direct viscinity of this moment. I think she was having very complex emotions she couldn't identify and process but it all lead to embarrassment at the time.

    Beautiful way to ask a father of love, to adopt children not of his blood. But in affection close to the heart. It seems he is more a Dad to them, than biological fathers can be to their own-children, in sad situations. - That is something to treasure, value and APPRECIATE. - I just hope those girls are mature enough, and can see clearly-enough _how grateful they should be:_ for embrace of a Father who cares for and loves them! And obviously a dear mother.
    Creative and thoughtful way to honor him, by asking that he adopt them!

I hoped my Mom would find love again but it never happened so after a while I started to give my Mom a Father's Day card every year on Father's Day since she was doing double duty.
