Butterbean Green Hopefully my daughter gets to marry one of these types!!! Strong morals, GR8 heart!!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 Beautiful Love, PRICELESS

[@andreacornelius3359]

so proud of him. I too adopted a sibling group of 3. I started fostering them when they were two, three, and four. They are now 17, 18, and 19. They are beautiful kids. No arrest, No drugs, no gangs. The 19 year old is entering her 2nd year of college. I kept them in church. Now, they bug me about giving them a ride to youth group. They don't hang out in the streets. I did it by myself, with no husband or boyfriend. Just training them up in the way that they should go. Teaching them the word of God. It makes me happy everyday to see how they are always told they look so much like each other. I am so glad that I did not let the agency seperate them. I kept them together. May God bless you and your new son. It will be a little difficult at first, but It gets easier. God bless you.

Andrea Cornelius what a beautiful story. Inspiring.

Andrea Cornelius 👏👏👏👏.... 🙌👆

[@dwn144]

Andrea Cornelius well done you. Im touched

[@mikaylahwoof8988]

Being a single parent doesn't mean you'll be a bad parent, despite what people thing. Yeah, it'll be harder, you'll be more stressed, you'll have to do it all, but you can still be a great parent.

[@elle19ism]

Thanks for sharing your story, it is so inspirational. I've been thinking about adoption for a while, but I'm only 21 so I still have a few years of maturing to complete. I felt really content when I started to realise that God wanted me to adopt in the future, whether I was single or married, so it's good to hear your story. May God continue to bless your family!

[@rachellenicolejoseph7568]

waaait a minute.. if my boo Hill Harper wanted a baby.. we could've discussed this.

[@alexadebayo6432]

Rachelle Sanders ikr she ready....

[@jordanabeaulieu2530]

My goodness, Hill Harper is like Benjamin Button, the older he gets, the younger he looks!

[@nicholas-vlogs7677]

Yeah

[@roginavaughn80]

I just said the she thing

[@estherlungu9332]

I am a 22 year old African lady and everyone thinks I am crazy for wanting to adopt. It breaks my heart knowing the people close to me call me crazy for feeling this way((. This story made me feel so empowered and encouraged. God bless you and your son

[@SL-lz9jr]

You do you! I want to adopt too (I’m Chinese) but my mom would prefer blood relative. SMH.

[@micaonyx5301]

I'm a foster kid and always wanted to adopt, but I never got married and already had a kid, who is now 25. I really wish I had adopted a child when I was younger. If you have the means and will give that child a good home then do it. Nothing will be sadder than being on your death bed full of regrets about the things you didn't do because of what other people thought.

[@ms22078]

Sadly in African culture, they don't really adopt. But don't let that stop you from changing a precious child's life

[@kimberlyjohnson8674]

@Esther Lungu don’t tell people your business. I’ve learned the hard way people are judge mental. I stopped mentioning adoption to my family because they are close minded.

[@tranquilshorestravelagency9641]

Follow year heart!

[@timswinson5693]

when you get hit with Cancer everything changes glad he got chance to be a Father

[@CC-rj6gt]

Yeah great way to look at this. Thank you for the positive outlook.

Read his book for black males my senior year in hs 12yrs ago and I still live by those lessons, good dude

[@km-ip9kz]

You mad fine.

[@fennyyahtaylor6772]

I am gonna adopt later on in my life. I am 22

[@tooblessedtobestressed1538]

Fenny Yah Taylor yes do it I support u. more people should do ut

[@UrbanLee92]

me too... its a dream of mine to adopt.

[@yourmajesty7012]

Fenny Yah Taylor I'm adopted and didn't have a good experience, so make the decision wisely because that will be someone's life in your hands

[@fennyyahtaylor6772]

With God by my side I am going to do my best to do right by that child. I am sorry you didn't have a good experience

[@elle19ism]

I'm 21 and hoping to adopt in the future. May God help you on your journey!

Exactly......

[@marthajane6617]

Wow, Hill he is adorable, God bless you and remember he is a gift and you have so much to offer him, I wish you the best. xo

[@nicford548]

This melted my cold dead heart. I wish them both the best. It’s the toughest job ever done - being a parent!

[@BElle-Ballentine]

I'm gagging on happiness 😍😍😍😍😍😍 I can't be more happy for him 😊😊😊

[@zinzimafela]

How's Hill single? 😳 this makes no sense whatsoever 😭

[@Stargazer9933]

Zinzi Mafela Think about what the reason could be. Interestingly, I wondered the same thing when I saw him speaking at Eddie Long's church, Newbirth in Lithonia Ga... :)

[@teammmx]

Maybe he's encountered a lot of "Blancita" type partners and rejected them. Hasn't found the right one.

[@AshleyJohnson-xd1ei]

He just hasn't found "the one".

[@star-qp4bi]

I know right?

[@Native-Kitty]

Pierce was walk running out like: “Umm, daddy what’s going on? You better pick me up!” LOL!!! What a cute kid.

[@SamoneHooper-gj9rc]

Right! He was looking around like who is all this people?! Lol so handsome

[@patriciabrown9316]

He is a favorite of mine. So proud of him for doing this.

[@mkyrillos8048]

U can feel the bond between them it's so lovely. When one can give a better life and love for a child it's great.

[@karenmbbaxter]

Awwww....... too cute........Does he need to adopt a wife too coz i am sure a lot of us would be putting up our hands for that.

[@mj5885]

[@alicegauteng2358]

Girl back off! He is mine🤣🤣🤣

[@richardmiiller1813]

Well to all 3 of u, whenever Mr Hill decides to bring in a spouse for he & young Pierce im afraid tht wont be of the female persuasion😋 sorry to disappoint ladie😉 (And i say this with luv im not being mean or anything but I just couldnt resist.) So im claiming him!! I will make a great step father/mother to thy ready made family!🤭🤗❤

[@cindyrolle6476]

What a beautiful human being! What a wonderful father.

[@mariacrudup2501]

This is wonderful to see! Congratulations Hill Harper. I know you will continue to be a great dad.

[@tipsygypsy8741]

That’s wonderful that he finally landed the biggest and best role of all, the role of being a parent!! I am so happy for him, and I loved those photos of them together! I especially loved the picture that had him on his daddy’s back, it’s so cute to see the little guy happily climbing around on Hill!❤️

[@Machenziethemodel]

He is so adorable

[@distorbia20]

OMG that baby is just so cute and loves his dad so much

[@polastar5198]

Omg I love me some Hill Harper he's such a caring and beautiful soul this is so beautiful we need more man like him not deadbeat dad's . Thank you for being a beautiful man lovable caring and I'm so happy for him for taken the biggest role in his life loving someone else's child ❤💖💕💗💙

[@longinusgalaxy411]

Story is so adorable and so is the kid. Blessings. Pass it on.

[@truthteller3181]

Why is he a single dad? I would marry him.Many women would.

[@frenchvanilla7109]

Dess D I know right, he seems like a great catch. I'm sure many single women out their he can choose from.

[@Anointed012]

French Vanilla , Isn't it obvious ? He's a good looking guy who's a actor ! Not stereotyping or typecasting but he's clearly gay.

[@truthteller3181]

Anointed Truth Noooo. I can't accept that. even if he is in the closet, in my mind he is waiting meet me so that I can be stepmom 😁❤😍💛

[@jdmoore5979]

French Vanilla U mean out "there" right???????

[@ohheybih]

Dess D ok?!?! LOL he did a good deed but serious side eye.....

[@dineomokgosi411]

Always loved him. Such a beautiful human being. Love, from South Africa.❤️

[@juliamackey6076]

So heart warming! What a blessing for both Hill and his son.

[@Stormyfoureleven3187]

Wow this is beautiful. He had so much to offer young Pierce and so much to gain from his blessing. I absolutely love this story. I’ve always love me some Mr. Harper ALWAYS ❤️

[@lisasangria1086]

This is pushing me closer to adoption. My husband and I miscarried once and aborted once. I have to be honest and say I didn't want any more children at the time. My daughter was almost 20 at the time. It was a selfish decision and we have cried about it on several occasions. We are now in a place to adopt and feel it's the right thing to do.

[@sinaicircle]

A blessing! Thank you for being a great father to your son Pierce.😊

[@hillharper460]

Very wonderful story! Congratulations Hill!

[@winderfulfoster680]

Great story!Love it!😊😊😊😊😊

[@BLACKLOTUSBUTTERFLY7]

someone who is choosing to love and share is molding another life to do the same, so that They can reach the pinnacle of their life. that's the impact. whatever version it comes thru is the blessing. we see that there are too many kids waiting to be adopted and even birthed into 'regular' situations that don't know love and care. so kudos to hill Harper for stepping into a divine role as a male figure.

[@ernestineanderson3323]

If that's true, we applaude him, if not and just entertainment to get publicity, NOT A FAN, because it's Robin Robbins I am sorry to say, I think it's the later

[@stephaniethomas-andrews9257]
