RINA Hi sugar I have been waiting for this video and praying for you and shane and the kids so glad it is here...would you do me a favor...Ive asked before but I still really want to move near my kids we are 2 hours apart...could everyone please pray for a move for me? Thank you I love you so much and your family give Nanny my love hugs and blessings Traci Losee
I am blessed to be close to 3 of our 4 children and our 5 grands. We have one child about 8 hours away. Eight hours don't seem too far unless that baby is sick or going through the challenges of being an adult. I will pray that an opportunity will present itself and that you will know that God put it there just for you!
How did Shane become such a great man without a father? He has become the dad every kid would love to have. And for you, the husband every woman dreams of❤️
Your open letter to Shane’s dad had me in tears!! I’m so happy he was able to meet his family and i’m so glad jesus paid his price on the cross so we can see our family again one day!! your love for shane is priceless and so glad you live by example of what a Godly marriage is supposed to look like!! Love you guys❤
Who the heck is cutting onions? Your open letter has me sobbing 😭💖 What a beautiful thing you did for Shane and his family. I'm certain his dad is looking down from heaven smiling about everything y'all have accomplished together. Y'all let your light keep shining, this channel of yours is bringing so many people joy and positivity. This world needs more people like y'all! 💖💖
This was the most heartwarming video!! Shane looks alot like his Dad. To be the man he is today without having had his Dad present in his life it a testimony to the man Shane truly is. I'm so happy that he has you Merina to push forward and experience this with him and all the family. Always remember, there are 2 sides to all stories and memories are things we alone own. Bless y'all. I'm so happy and proud for all of you. Love you guys to pieces and glad y'all made it back safely!! 🙏💖💖💖💖💖🙏
Oh my I was not expecting to cry but girl this got me. Seeing Shane standing at is daddy's grave holding flowers and then your letter to him had the tears flowing. I'm so glad that Shane was able to learn more about his daddy. If he was even a small portion of the dad that Shane is to y'all's kids that he must have been somegthing great. Shane is a dad your kids can be proud of. And his "love you" at the end to you says so much. You two are a great team and appear to be raising some wonderful kids. Prayers for you all. Our God is so good all the time!!
Happy Peach I see & feel the same as u see I also cried a bit. Such a Godly loving family & a Blessing to share their life with ALL of us like family. Shane u LOOK a lot like your daddy. Thanks for sharing :D
Shane's dad would be incredibly proud of the man, husband, and father he has become. He knows how blessed you two are for having each other and those sweet little kids. He watching down on you all Riner, I can imagine that smile from those pictures looking out the heaven window at his living legacy.
Wow! I was not expecting that in this video. I was crying tears of happiness and love for Shane. If I ever need someone in my corner I hope I look over and see you. What a beautiful sole you are in this world. Also, I think Shane looks just like his Daddy.
Merina, you are one in a million. The love you have for Shane and your children is evident in everything you do. Making something like this happen for Shane is beyond love, it's a gift that will keep giving for years to come. I must have missed the episode about how Shane got separated from his family, but there is beauty in finding them and seeing how much they see their Dad in him. The tribute you wrote to your father in law melted every heart that heard it. Much love to all of you.
He’s going to sit down with us and talk when he’s ready 😊 it was a whole lot to process and I wouldn’t dare rush it. He’s grieving over his dad in a very different way and we’re trying to learn to navigate allllll the feelings!
Merina, that was so sweet of your love for Shane and your father in law, I’m tearing up right now. I never knew who my father was and it was so hard, I just found out through a DNA but that side does not want to acknowledge me so it won’t hurt others and it’s ok now that I’m almost 60, but I dreamed about who he was all my life like what was his occupation or what did he look like all those things. I’m so happy for Shane to learn about who his Father was and maybe get most of his questions answered. Love to your family and sorry this comments so long
Please don't take this the wrong way. I'm a 60 yr old grandma who watches your channel faithfully & just loves you & your family. Sometimes, when you're cleaning & going about your business I forget just how breathtakingly beautiful you are, girl. Thank you for taking us along for the ride & sharing so much of yourselves with us. Y'all are such a special family & I feel so happy when I watch y'all. Your Sister in Christ, East Texas Granny
I am so happy for Shane.He deserves this.He is a great dad and husband.Thank you both for letting us share this very emotional part of your life.Shane looks a lot like his dad.Merina that letter was beautiful and got me crying but it's a good cry.Once again thank you both so much for sharing your beautiful, amazing and loving family with us.
This video has me all up in my feeling. Seeing Shane in the graveyard and you inserting his dad picture just made me tear up. Thank you from the bottom of heart for doing this for Shane he deserves to know everything about his dad and you my dear are making it happen. Blessings to you all. ❤
If there were more families like you and Shane the world would be a better place. I think some people are just born with decency and integrity despite their family circumstances ❤
Merina and Shane, I sat here watching this and crying, not tears of sadness but joy. God brought all of you together. There is something about knowing who you are, what your heritage is, I believe this has opened up a whole new world for all of you. I am so happy for you, you have been given a precious gift, cherish it, nurture it. God Bless all of you.
Merina...what a beautiful way to show your love for Shane. YOUR THE WOMAN! So glad you made the trip n found out info n hopefully Shane feels a little better about his dad.God bless you n your family.
I just bawled like a baby when I watched this! So happy for Shane and your family and your tribute to his dad was just heartfelt! Much love to you all! God bless!!❤️❤️
Omg i cried for all of you. I cant imagine what Shane went thru growing up with no dad. Im so lucky to have my dad still at age 55. Please give Shane a huge hug from me. If i didn't live in Michigan I'd do it myself.
Leaf Like on a Tree sent her viewers over to share the love. Watching your latest video and sending you some love. Have a blessed day.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Family is everything. Finding out where you came from is important especially to find the truth. Sometimes the truth hurts but it is amazing to know. I am so glad that Shane was able to find family that knew his dad. Daddies are incredibly important to children, for Shane he has done a amazing job of being a dad with the children especially when he has learned it by the seat of his pants.
I have been praying for you and your family. I'm a mama of 7 who homestead homeschool and we live in a small single wide like yours.I dream of the day we can declutter etc. It's har to get rid of somethings our oldest passed away 5 years ago, shew as 12 from an asthma attack. And you remind me of my younger self. we have twins boy/girl age 15, please if you have time send prayers our way we will be debt free at the end of June and we have been struggling to get there. Love you and your precious family.
Merina the end of this video put me in tears . Jesus definitely knew what he was doing when he created y’all . Such beautiful souls you and Shane are . The world needs more people like you in It ❤❤❤ much love
This is just precious. My goodness. 😢 my mother died right before I turned two, I still look for her, I visit her grave, dream about her. One day I’ll never have to say goodbye again. This video was really special for me to watch, I understand how Shane feels. God bless him and your family. ❤ Shane looks so much like his father.
There are no words to explain how I feel watching this video. What an amazing thing you have done for the love of your life. When you were showing a picture of the boys sleeping I noticed them almost hugging. Colton is always going to be his brother's keeper. Love your family so much.
Oh, my. Merina, God put you and Shane together for so many reasons. This is just one, Honey. With your last little open letter to your Father-in -law, you put tears in my eyes. My Samantha had already don that to, sending me a audio of her singing to her baby. We all have so much to be thankful for because of the love people have for us, but no one could live us more than our Jesus. On top of that, look how he uses us to do good things in our lives. God bless and keep you all.
I'm glad Shane got to meet some of his fathers side of the family . That letter tore me to pieces and made me think of my own father whom I didn't really know
Somehow didn't think this video would make me cry, but here we r 😭 😭!!!? Shane ur a good man, husband, friend and ur father from above is SO PROUD of u. Merina I wish I could put into words how much of a beautiful person u r and how I wish we where friends in real life. Have an amazing week
Wow!! I’m in tears this has got to be the most heart warming video I’ve ever seen! Shane looks just like his dad for sure! Y’all are the best family ♥️♥️
I'm not cryin' you're cryin'! Merina you are such a joy. What a sweet letter. Shane was made for you and you for him. You are such a genuine caring spirit and you have touched so many others with your loving kindness. I'm so glad this was able to happen for you and your beautiful family. ❤ I just can't quit tearing up. 😢. Wishing you continued success here on your channel. We should all strive to be more Christ like. You are a wonderful daughter. 🙏 ✌🏼❣️🙋🏻♀️. 🌸💕🍓🌹❤️🔥🍑🧡🧀🍯🌼🍋🥝🍏🛼🦋🫐🪁🔮🦄⛸️🧁✌🏼🥠🍪🍩🪺
What a precious trip! When you have a missing parent, it’s hard not knowing where you came from. I’m so glad that Shane is getting some answers to where he came from! Such a blessing😘
Your letter open letter to your father in law made me get so teary eyed and goose bumps as well. It was so beautiful. I am so glad you took us on the trip with you! Blessings to you and your family! 💗
Merina, you are such a sweet caring and loving person to do something like this for the ones you love. I glad Shane got to meet his family on his dad side and to get to know more about his dad. You can tell you truly care as it's important he knows about his dad and to meet his family. I hope he contuines a relationship with his family and continues to visit with them sometimes. If Shane don't mind can we get a story behind what happen to his dad and as to why he didn't know the the real story about his dad and family! I hope you and your family are having a great week!?
Man it’s dusty in this room! Im not crying at all. No but really thank you for sharing such a beautiful moment with your family. My prayer is for even more blessings and love and peace for you. Now I gotta go run to hug my hubby and kids! 💕
Wow Shane looks just like his father. Bless you Marina for making this happen for Shane and your children. You all deserve to know what some of the missing pieces were in order to heal. I was extremely blessed to have had a wonderful father. I am so happy that people like Shane have a heavely father that he can turn to and model his life after for his own children. May you all be blessed!
This may just be the most beautiful video you have ever created! Tears of joy and peace are flowing over here girl. Sending so much love, hugs and prayers to you, Shane and the littles! Go Scooby Dooby Doo! ❤
Ok, I don’t think it would be possible to watch this without crying! Happy tears and sad tears both. I’m just thrilled that it was possible for you all to take this trip and I hope it was all you hoped it could be. For Shane to be the amazing father he is shouldn’t come easy to him but clearly our Heavenly Father stepped up and looked after him and showed him the way. Let’s all remember though that it was our precious friend Merina who made this trip a reality and girl I’m SO proud of you. You are amazing! I’m so very glad I found you and this amazing group of women. It gives me hope in this messed up world that there are still good people out there. Much love!❤️❤️❤️
Is someone cutting onions because man are my eyes juicing....Shane is a rock star husband and father. The world is truly blessed to have such a good, decent, hardworking man like him in it.
Merina & Shane... so happy for you all to find out more about Shane's dad, and all the missing pieces that have been hidden for so long!!! Dang though, if I wasn't bawling like a baby through 80% of this video. 😭🥺❤️ My heart is melting, and I hope Shane gets to find out all he possibly can. He looks so much like him too!!
✝️* A beautiful Tribute to Shane's Father and Family. How touching and meaningful... I had a few tears roll down my face when you read your letter to His Dad. My Dad has been gone now for 13 yrs this March and I'm a only child and my parents divorced. It's really hard to grieve when no one can relate to the extent that you feel when it's your Dad and you feel so alone. Big hugs to Shane and what a beautiful HelpMate you are to your Husband. You inspire me to be a better Christian woman, Wife , and Mother. Im not gonna lie but I was ready to walk out on my marriage about a month ago and I had been binge watching you. The Lord softened my heart towards Chad and I no longer want to leave. I Don't want to leave a legacy of another broken home in which we both had come from ourselves. We want to change our outcome for our 3 children. Plz pray for me and my marriage and for the Lord to be the wife I need to be for Chad. Thank you ** ✝️ ps did u get those address labels I sent to you with the leopard print cosmetic/baggie?
How is it possible to love someone so much that you have never met? I know just a little bit because of how much I and so many more love you and your family. So sweet.
What an emotional and heart warming experience! I’m so glad Shane and all of you got this opportunity! Everyone deserves to know where and who they came from!❤
Although Shane didn't know his father, his mother/grandma did an phenomenal job raising him.. I'm so happy that he met his family on his dad side.....just remember his dad is always with him... Love you all ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I was holding back my tears fairly well until you photoshopped the picture into y’all’s live action 34:17 😭 Merina, you are so loving and kind. Even my world is brighter with you in it! Beautiful, beautiful family! Prayers & love always, God bless!✝️🤍
Isn’t it wonderful how the Lord works?Shane has you and four beautiful children, and a deep love and faith in Christ. He is blessed beyond measure..as you are Merina! 🥰🙏🏻
12:39 When you said the name of the #1 favorite candy, his little face popped up so quickly! ❤ Shows little ears are always listening. Yo are a beautiful person, inside and out😢
Going back watching all the videos and the letter to your father in law brought tears to my eyes God bless you sweet lady ❤love watching you and your family ❤
This was so sweet! I love ur letter to him! He has a great daughter in law! And boy Shane is a spitting image of his dad! Happy y'all had a good and safe trip! Love y'all bunches!!!
So beautiful, Merina! ❤ I love that y'all got to meet his family. I'm sure they absolutely love y'all. Shane, we're all proud of you, and the kind, hard working, husband and father, you are. We're rooting for you all as you trust and follow Jesus.
I am so blessed to have seen this. Merina I cannot describe what my heart feels because of what you did for Shane. To see a wife touched so deeply by her husband's joy.. is simply amazing! You my darling, are a gift from God to those who find you. God bless you all.
Dear God. Merina you made me ball my eyes out. I’m so sorry for Shane. He does look a lot like his dad. Shane, you are a good man and a good father. Merina, you are a good wife and mother. You both are so blessed. Deep breath. Whew. The tears man. I feel this. ❤
Girl this video has me in tears!! I just want to give Shane a big hug. You too! I am so happy it went well meeting his family. I love your channel. You guys always crack me up. Sending big hugs your way. Love you all!!!!
Shane looks a lot like his dad so glad that you were able to get to meet some of his family. Praying blessings over your journey to find out more about his dad.
Girl you made me cry several times watching this. I lost my Daddy last July and it’s been hard. I can only imagine what Shane has gone through not having his Dad in his life, Shane has turn out to be an awesome Father. I love watching you two together and love the fact you are a Jesus loving family. Love you guys!
The bucket on top of the fridge is your ice bucket and the thing in the closet opens up to lay your suitcase on 😊This was such a beautiful video, I’m so happy for Shayne to be able to find some answers ❤
Hi merina, I am already a fan of you and your family but I also watch "leaf like on a tree" and she wants to spread some love. So I'm here to do that, hope you have a great day.

"A camper sink" 🤣🤣 love it

Cammie is beautiful!! What an angel 😇
Hello Vicki how are you doing,
where are you from?
I'm sure his Daddy would be so proud of Shane.God Bless you all❤️🙌🏼🌹🕊️
This may just be the most beautiful video you have ever created! Tears of joy and peace are flowing over here girl. Sending so much love, hugs and prayers to you, Shane and the littles! Go Scooby Dooby Doo! ❤
The best video I’ve seen in ages. So sweet, touching, respectful and totally honest. Go Girl! You and Shane were meant to be together.
Ok, I don’t think it would be possible to watch this without crying! Happy tears and sad tears both. I’m just thrilled that it was possible for you all to take this trip and I hope it was all you hoped it could be. For Shane to be the amazing father he is shouldn’t come easy to him but clearly our Heavenly Father stepped up and looked after him and showed him the way. Let’s all remember though that it was our precious friend Merina who made this trip a reality and girl I’m SO proud of you. You are amazing! I’m so very glad I found you and this amazing group of women. It gives me hope in this messed up world that there are still good people out there. Much love!❤️❤️❤️
I was sent over by Leaf like on a tree to spread some kindness. Can’t wait to start watching your videos. 😊Mercy
This was such a beautiful testimony you gave Shane about his dad. Had me bawling
Is someone cutting onions because man are my eyes juicing....Shane is a rock star husband and father. The world is truly blessed to have such a good, decent, hardworking man like him in it.
Merina & Shane... so happy for you all to find out more about Shane's dad, and all the missing pieces that have been hidden for so long!!! Dang though, if I wasn't bawling like a baby through 80% of this video. 😭🥺❤️ My heart is melting, and I hope Shane gets to find out all he possibly can. He looks so much like him too!!
So beautiful!!! Now I’m just sitting here crying for Shane and you.
✝️* A beautiful Tribute to Shane's Father and Family. How touching and meaningful... I had a few tears roll down my face when you read your letter to His Dad. My Dad has been gone now for 13 yrs this March and I'm a only child and my parents divorced. It's really hard to grieve when no one can relate to the extent that you feel when it's your Dad and you feel so alone. Big hugs to Shane and what a beautiful HelpMate you are to your Husband. You inspire me to be a better Christian woman, Wife , and Mother. Im not gonna lie but I was ready to walk out on my marriage about a month ago and I had been binge watching you. The Lord softened my heart towards Chad and I no longer want to leave. I Don't want to leave a legacy of another broken home in which we both had come from ourselves. We want to change our outcome for our 3 children. Plz pray for me and my marriage and for the Lord to be the wife I need to be for Chad. Thank you ** ✝️ ps did u get those address labels I sent to you with the leopard print cosmetic/baggie?
Leaf Like On A Tree suggested that I come and let you know how loved you are and how much we appreciate your channel, Praying for you always!
How is it possible to love someone so much that you have never met? I know just a little bit because of how much I and so many more love you and your family. So sweet.
What an emotional and heart warming experience! I’m so glad Shane and all of you got this opportunity! Everyone deserves to know where and who they came from!❤

All I can say is I wish the world had more of you guys You truly Give us a little piece of heaven Thank you
Dear God. Merina you made me ball my eyes out. I’m so sorry for Shane. He does look a lot like his dad. Shane, you are a good man and a good father. Merina, you are a good wife and mother. You both are so blessed. Deep breath. Whew. The tears man. I feel this. ❤

It seems Shane has so much insight into God's love that he gives his children what he should have had. God bless him
Girl you made me cry several times watching this. I lost my Daddy last July and it’s been hard. I can only imagine what Shane has gone through not having his Dad in his life, Shane has turn out to be an awesome Father. I love watching you two together and love the fact you are a Jesus loving family. Love you guys!
I’ll try and do it tomorrow. Thanks so much!
The bucket on top of the fridge is your ice bucket and the thing in the closet opens up to lay your suitcase on 😊This was such a beautiful video, I’m so happy for Shayne to be able to find some answers ❤
Hi merina, I am already a fan of you and your family but I also watch "leaf like on a tree" and she wants to spread some love. So I'm here to do that, hope you have a great day.
