Sweet Little Girl Tells Her Adoptive Mom About the First Time They Met in Video

Share

Whether because of adoption, a blended family or a biological family, there’s something special about the bond between a mother or father and their children.

While kids may be kids and might not always express their gratitude for their parents, there are moments of sweetness that come through when a kid takes a moment to recognize the role their parents have played in their lives.

For many, this comes in the form of kids asking a step-parent to become their adoptive parent.

Often given as a birthday or Christmas present, adoption papers are an official step toward an unspoken agreement between parent and child.

According to WIAT, Leonard Avila had known Alessandra since he met her mother, when Alessandra was just a few months old.
