FOSTER CARE, ADOPTiON & BIRTH PARENTS 🥰🥰

My husband and I became foster parents in 2000.  We got into foster care because we did want to make our family bigger but we also wanted to just be a help to other families and these children who really just need a place to be until their families can get their lives together. We went into foster care, knowing that the children who came into our home, probably wouldn’t stay. We would just be a resting place. But we both really prayed that we would be a blessing to whoever came into our home and that we would trust that when the kids went home, it was God‘s will. It’s definitely not easy being a foster parent because you do fall in love with every child that comes in to your home, but we realized early that was it was important for us to also love their families because when the kids did go home, it made it a lot easier knowing the parents and supporting them when they were struggling and helping them get their families back together. We did adopt six of our children through foster care. Each situation was different, but we still trusted God with each one, and we honestly did not plan on adopting six children, I’m very thankful, but I do understand it’s very hard for the family and for our children. The children, the parents and us. We all need a support system when you are in the foster care system, or like us parents who are fostering other children. We were foster parents for 11 years and we learned a lot. It really helped us to grow as parents and to be more patient and loving to others who are struggling and maybe not so perfect but you definitely have to step down off a pedestal and realize that everybody needs a friend and support and none of us are perfect and when you realize that you’re not perfect, and that everybody struggles, it really does help loving people who sometimes aren’t lovable.
I just wanted to share my thoughts on how me and my husband dealt with been in foster care, adopting, children, and the most important thing dealing with their birth families.
When we talk to people and explain to them how we decided to deal with the whole foster care situation, people are shocked that we kept our home open to helping these birth families. And I’m telling you the only reason it made it easier to watch these kids go home is because we invested in the entire family unit and we knew that they would do great and some of them we still are friends with and we see how well the parents are doing and they deserve that they deserved a chance to show That they could get their lives together to raise their children.
Not every child went back to the best place. Some of them ended up back in foster care in other homes but we did try. We wanted to be a help. It wasn’t our goal to take children from their homes. Did we want to have more children? of course we did but we didn’t go into it thinking OK we’re gonna adopt all these kids and take these kids from their families that wasn’t our thought. We had David and we love David and we loved his family and if that was the only child that God would give us we would be fine with that. So you really have to
Go into foster care, knowing that yes, you might adopt some children but you definitely have to help heal the whole family unit with the birth family and for the children

Heather Bell, you are doing exactly what God wants you to do. You are an example of the word love. What a blessing!!❤

[@BeepBoopBopBap]

I am an atheist and I agree completely

[@charlescisney8153]

Heather, you and Luke are great parents. Your 8 kids are very lucky to have their biological parents and you.

[@kristinmikes6227]

Adoptive mom of three amazing kids here. I completely agree that foster care requires unconditional love, and lifting birth parents up is so incredibly important for the healing of the kids. Thank you for sharing your heart. ❤

[@changeoffocus1074]

In all seriousness,, you can tell a lot from a hug… I like that she said David’s BioMom Gives The Best Hugs… 😊

[@misspowers]

I have so much respect for you, Heather. I hope you know just how awesome you are! You’ve approached being online, with kids, in such a wholesome way. You’re one of the ONLY family vlogging channels I watch bc I know you protect your kids. You don’t exploit them. They’re old enough to give consent to being online. And you can genuinely see they enjoy interacting with you, cooking and doing challenges. It’s all just so wholesome and good 🥺❤️ “I am not their savior. My kids are the heroes.” ….that sentence alone is a perfect example of why you’re one of the greats! Uplifting your kids instead of taking praise for yourself. 🏆

[@nataliefoster9318]

Would love her to do a.collab with DCP as she is doing family blogging the right way! She is the only 1 I watch.

[@Mama_Terri]

I gave up a child for adoption in the 70’s. I can only pray he has been loved by someone like you.

[@weedmama-420]

I wish more birth parents would share their story. It would help so many parents strugglilng.

[@ginadean4460]

What a wise woman. I can't believe some ignorant people would say you broke up families. Thank God these children had you and your husband. You both might not be perfect but definitely have a place prepared in heaven. May God bless all of you!

[@mary-catherinecroshaw6369]

I LOVE that you acknowledge the inherent connection between biological parents and children and how it's something that can't be replicated even if the situation is horrible and the parents didn't treat their child well. Even if the parent can walk away from their child and maybe not care, it doesn't work that way for kids. Kids will always feel that attachment to their biological parents, particularly their mothers as they literally grew inside them, and losing that is deeply traumatic no matter how wonderful your adoptive family is. Too many adoptive parents want to be heroes and refuse to acknowledge that while they did a good thing, there is never not trauma from being separated from your birth family. It's like they expect kids to be so grateful to them that they never feel the need to search for their birth family, but it's very very natural and normal not to feel whole without a connection to the person who gave birth to you and the family you come from.

[@TheRealEvvonne]

Amen 🙏 ❤

[@infamouszxnicky]

You made me cry. As someone who was placed with a relative due to my Mom's addiction, thank you for not sharing your children's stories. You are 100 percent correct that it's their stories to tell. Yes I was placed with a relative but I was also separated from my parents (You're right. My Mom made some huge mistakes but I always loved her) and I was also separated from my siblings.

[@candiballard72]

4 minutes in and I am already teared up. You are a true blessing.

[@ruparusse1114]

This is one of the most beautiful and profound gifts to the world. I hope that everyone hears your words. The shaming will not help or heal the children. Thank you for inspired open-hearted content and for this very important reminder. Many parents do not get a second chance when they want one, the children should know they wanted one. Blessings to you Heather.

[@debracoder3596]

Bravo! Well said. Heather, Thank God for you and Luke 😘💕

[@kathiewool4292]

As adopting parents you gave them a safe environment where they felt they could be normal.

[@paulaclements6191]

This is a great life lesson, for not only adoptive parents, but for everyone. It can be applied to many facets of life.

[@staciesidloski2481]

Right on Heather! You are doing the Lord’s work. ❤️🙏

[@crystalbenneyy9723]

I totally agree as a adopted mom of four I always tell my children that their parents loved them and I would never say bad things about their birth parents

[@danielledulyea6020]

Anyone that does foster care gets a lot of respect from me, i know a few people that that does foster care.

[@theverhoevenfamily]

Love is about what you give not what you get out of it. Amen. Amen.

[@jamierussellville101]

As a step mom this really hit me. As much as their mom had issues and I had to take up the slack, they still love their mom unconditionally. I still struggle with that they love her more even though Im the one there for everything. Good for you to be able to get past that and be the bigger person. Its something Im slowly coming to terms with.

[@Olivia-ve2qw]

I admire you so much more for choosing to honor your kids and their birth families instead of crossing that privacy line. That's an integrity move. Even though you're not on here for your own praise, I commend you for being respectful and considerate of all involved. It motivated me to subscribe!

[@NeoniaTownley]

Thanks for this video, I was a single foster parent and had 16 children come through my home over a 10 year period. I did adopt number #14 a boy which I had since he was 30 days old. i would like for people to realize that many of these children come with issues. I also did an open adoption and my son see his family several times a year. I agree that these kids need to know where they come from and I don't put the birth parents down and everyone needs that love and respect. Thanks for sharing your heart.

[@dianesullivan2809]

That had to be a rough recording! Thank you for sharing your heart and thoughts with us! We are all doing the best we can. Here’s to all the Mamas out there! Xoxoxo

[@michelewilliams3761]

I cried so hard listening to you talk its beautiful they way you love your children.you got it mama

[@eliza_kai]

Thank you for doing it right. My husband and his twin brother were adopted and abused in the most severe way. It has caused shock waves through our own family when this all came out a couple years ago. Dealing with disassociation is no joke. I can’t even imagine what these boys went through to see the impact now. I know you’re few and far between. Thank God for you guys. As a bio mom to six children, even I’ve learned from you how to better love my children ❤

[@marykotalik7161]

I can't believe people actually think you're trying to steal kids. That is really crazy. And those birth parents that hate you. Shame on them! May God bless you for all that you do for these children and their birth family!

[@beckyryan407]

It proves you have a lot of love to share with others. My aunt had a 4th child she gave up for adoption. I didn't know about her till a few years ago. When she was looking for her birth mother, she is a loved member of our family.

[@pitabury]

That is beautiful! What a blessing to all of you. 💜

[@MemphisMama]

Don’t ever be ashamed of something you’ve asked. You won’t know unless you ask. You had a 50% chance they would say yes and a 50% chance they’d say no.

[@candlegirl1973]

My parents were foster parents from way before I was born until I turned 13yrs old. My parents were told that they couldn't get pregnant so they adopted my sister. Then they kept trying for a baby and were told the same thing, so they adopted my brother when he was 3 months old. Then my mom found out that she was 3 months pregnant with me. My brother and I are close in age and close to one another. I would love to foster but I get to attached and would want to keep them all. 😍 I am proud of you for keeping their story for them to tell IF they want to. Love your family and your channel!!

[@heathers.turpin76]

Heather don’t ever feel ashamed of trying to put the birth parents on here or for asking!!! U were just trying to let them have a chance to speak their truth and their feelings ok please don’t do that to yourself bc you are those beautiful kids saviors ok Much love & respect for you and Luke and your amazing kiddos from a Bama/Georgia Family 💯💪🏻👏🏻🙋🏼‍♀️😇🥳✝️🚚🚛🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🍀🍀🍀🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🎁🎁🎁🐘🐘🐘♥️♥️♥️🐶🐶🐶♥️♥️♥️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💙💙💙🩷🩷🩷

I absolutely adore you as a person.

[@tonyac2416]

I think many people allow jealousy to get in and want to limit love rather than realize that you are in their lives for a reason and love can just expand. I love your philosophy and that will keep your children feeling secure. I wasn't adopted but my Mom left my Father due to abuse. She never talked bad about him although he did a lot of bad. I respected her so much for that.

You are speaking straight to my heart !!! My husband and have adopted two of our grandchildren.through foster ..long story not going to explain. Though they will probably not get to reunite with one parent I had to cut off all family to one side for healing and safety. It’s been almost 2years and I have wanted to open the door to some of them but don’t know where to start !!! Mostly because I don’t want to reopen passed memories or fears for my kiddos

Thank you for sharing all of this with us, and thank you for not sharing the things that should be kept private. You're doing it right.

[@jennysmart3672]

From such experience. These are wise words from a humble place. I’m so glad you have said this. The most important place to start from in fostering is that the children will always love their mum/dad no matter what lived experience they have. And children that are not part of their birth family because of adoption or fostering will always want to know of their roots. It helps them with their identity and having safe and no blame contact with blood relations is part of supporting their growth. What big arms you and Luke have in gathering such an extended family and what healthy boundaries you keep. ❤

Those people with negative comments should get a life, and shut up for things they know nothing about. I applaud you and your husband. I work with fostercare population of children. A child should not be raised in the system, A lot of foster parents are horrible. You and your husband treat them as your own. Sad people would rather see children grow up in a bad situation with parents that don't care enough; rather than see them with people that love them (and treat them as their own). I wish the foster system had a millions of parents such as you guys. You guys are exceptional foster parents

I was adopted thru state foster care at 18 months old and it was closed. Of course, this was 1955. I figured out my birth family and foun a total of 4 half brothers and 4 half sisters, most I have met. My birth mom looked for me until she died. What I resented was my adoptive mom talked of my birth family and called them white trash-and didn't even know who they were...only knew a 21 year old woman gave birth to me out of wedlock..how dare she judge someone she never knew 😔

[@kelliquinn1342]

Oh my gosh your comment made me cry and I'm sure I'm not the only one. I guess at the end of the day we should always put Jesus first yeah, and remember it's all about forgiving. I wonder sometimes people who cannot have children get so caught up and just having a child that their needs come before the children. I'm sure you're adopted parents felt inadequate and they honestly probably without even knowing did this to you when I am so sorry! I'm saying a little prayer for you right now because I truly hope that you know Jesus on an everyday basis and one you will be reunited with your parents again. I'm starting a bucket list for heaven as God that I could please win this you guys reuniting. Peace of Christ

[@BrendaJBarNett]

@@kelliquinn1342 thank you. I have Jesus in my heart and ave forgiven my adoptive parents long ago. They did the best any parent could do. Obviously in the 50s there was bigger stigma on out of wedlock pregnancies than there is today. Eventhough there things have happened ever since man has been walking.. I so embrace the newer philosophy of foster care/adoption that @theBells10 and so many other families can embrace. Love and Light 🥰

[@kelliquinn1342]

Can I tell you how you make my day❣️❣️ While I love the internet it has it's downsides too, but when people are true to their heart and true to their God you can help so many people you never would have been able to reach before and I am sure that your comments is going to touch the heart of many.

[@aprilpfeiffer367]

It was good to hear you talk about your children’s birth families and how you uplift them. Not the same but kind of I did the same with my children’s father and his family. He just dropped out of their lives for a while he would every few months call or have a small visit a lot of times not show up or drop out of their lives. It was hard to watch and most people in mine and their lives would be angry at me or for me because I would try and makeup a reason like he got called into work even though I knew he chose to take the latest girlfriend kids out instead. Everyone would say just tell them the truth and let him face them the next time he called. But in my mind it was not worth it to see them heart broken and crying because kids automatically think what is wrong with me why does he not love me I’m not good enough. In truth he is just a very bad parent and person but if I could keep that pain from them I did. Did I sometimes feel like just saying he is a bad person and all the other bad things I felt and not to worry I will be there like always yes but to let them know how bad he was wound hurt them he is their father bad mouthing him hurt them even when true. They are all grown up now and know everything they need to about him sorry to say all 4 don’t have anything to do with him. But came to there in their own time and they know what I did trying to keep them from being hurt. All have said they were grateful I never said anything bad about him.

[@pitabury]

Great job, April. Eventually, they do figure it all out for themselves. When that happens, it breaks your heart to see them in so much pain. All you can do is what you have always done, be there to love them, and help them pick up the pieces. You are an AMAZING mom. I really hope you know that. Peace! 💜

[@mad11phil]

You're amazing!

[@infamouszxnicky]

I follow the same rule in my house with my ex husband. No matter how upset I've ever gotten I never disparage my ex. Especially in front of my son. I wanted the sun to rise and set on his Dad for him and it does. He's grown and still spends every Saturday night with his Dad. Also, I was placed with a relative due to my Mom's struggles. By not disparaging my Mom my life was better. God bless you for what you do and for not having a savior complex. 🙏❤
