OUR ADOPTION STORY | SUNDAY SITDOWN | PHILLIPS FamBam

[@evelynhayward2890]

When I married my husband I had 3 children, 5, 4, and 2 years. When my oldest daughter was 8 my husband adopted them. The biological father was not in the picture and did not contest the adoption. We had a son together and raised two grandchildren. We were married 37 years. And had God been willing, I would have liked to have been married 37 more. So, I love your story and pray you make 37 + years.

[@lesareek812]

What a stand up man!!!!!!!!! Danny

[@rebeccapena6243]

my mom married our daddy when I was 5. although we were never adopted he was our daddy. We always say any man can be a father but it takes a real man to be a daddy. Our step dad married our mom even though she had 5 kids already. He was the best thing that could of happened to us.

[@shacimk15]

Rebecca Pena yes!!! I am with you on this!! My mom met my daddy when I was 8 months old and married when I was three!

[@sashawasabi720]

Shaci T. confuzzled?

[@dianefranco6202]

Rebecca Pena your 100% right any man can say I’m a father BUT IT TAKES A REAL MAN TO B A DADDY!! Hopefully you can get free legal advise to get adopted so your family is sealed forever!!!

[@michellemartin4847]

WOW now I love you guys even more....I respect Danny so much to be a father to Tina's beautiful children. I am a single Mum and to find a man who will love me and my children ....would be a prayer answered. So proud of you two. I have three boys and two girls too.

[@itsrlife]

What a great story!! Thank you guys for sharing. You had me crying Danny! 😉 Thank you for the shoutout!!

[@PHILLIPSFamBam]

HEY EVERYONE! Please feel free to share your ADOPTION STORY HERE IN THE COMMENTS! If you have a video of it we invite you to put the link of it in our comments. We would love to watch it and share it with our viewers.

[@sarascheek]

What a great story. I cried cause Danny u are a great Man. kisses from Suriname South America

[@MarquitaR]

both of my girls are adopted but i had them 4m birth i was there when they was born, they are my sisters kids

[@heatherannen5992]

PHILLIPS FamBam I didn't no that you adopted two kids

[@michellehoang3547]

PHILLIPS FamBam I just subscribed, and I'm like binge watching old videos to catch up with my mom😂. But I was actually adopted myself, when I was 3 months old from Vietnam. And it's hard when you don't know your biological parents, but there's this camp called Culture Camp where families with kids adopted from Vietnam go and we all have that "adoption connection" and it's amazing.

[@doryboggs2680]

PHILLIPS FamBam I love your kids so much and my mom said that you guys are so sweet and seem so nice 🙎🏽👸🏼

[@Kirammayne]

I was 20 years old when I had my son. Single, alone, and trying to survive. Being a single parent is one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. The biological dad has never been involved and has never even met my son. When my son was about 18 months old, I met and fell in love with my now husband. We were married and sealed in the SLC Temple June 10th of 2017. Now, being married for a year, we can officially start the adoption and finally be sealed together as a family!! It takes a really special man to take on a child that is not biologically his. I thank my husband every day for being the best father he did not have to be. Thank you for sharing your story!!

[@dianefranco6202]

Kira Mayne it takes a REAL SPECIAL PERSON TO ADOPT A CHILD THATS NOT BIOLOGICALLY THEIRS BUT IT TAKES A REAL MAN TO BECOME A DAD CUZ A FATHER IS THE PERSON WHO RASIES YOU NOT A PERSON WHO WAS JUST THERE TO MAKE U HE THE FACE U SEE EVERYDAY THAT CARES FOR U WHEN UR SICK, THAT SUPPORTS EVERYTHING U DO, THAT U LOVE & VICE VERSA, & IS ALWAYS THERE WHEN U NEED HIM!! So CONGRATULATIONS to YOU BOTH ON THE ADOPTION IM SURE YOUR SON WILL B PROUD TO CALL HIM DAD!!

[@abbye8482]

You two have such a loving friendship/marriage, how could these kids possibly not love Danny too! You have an easy/breezy love relationship, this is why your vlog is so successful.

[@melissita77]

I’m 25 now and I would’ve loved my momma to find a wonderful men like Danny when my biological father divorced from her and my brother and me .. I was 1 and my brother 4 . It has been a difficult journey, but my mom was able to do it I love her so much for her strength. Thank you for sharing ❤️

[@PHILLIPSFamBam]

She sounds like an amazing woman!

[@michellesunshinestar]

My cousins were adopted from China. They are both in college now. One did cheer leading. One served. I wouldn't have cousins on my mom's side without them.

[@idiel24]

I didnt know More reason to love your family

[@alishab1853]

Danny is a Great man and father, that is the true definition.

[@auntoni51]

I had never watched a Sunday sit down. I clicked on this on your lists on your page. OMG, I am sitting here at 3 in the morning crying tears for your PRICELESS story. Biology does not make you a Dad, Love DOES. You two are great parents that everyone can tell the love in your entire family. Braden and Ashlynn can SO be seen how much they love their dad-YOU Danny. Thank you for sharing this beautiful family/adoption story. Tina and danny and your 5 children. GOD Bless You!!

[@bcompean123]

I was 17 when I had my first son. I worked my ass off and had some help and support with my parents but his biological father was never around. I met my husband when I was 20 and my son & him just fell in love the moment they met it was such a strong bond and still is. He doesn’t introduce him as his step son that is HIS son. We now have two more a two year old boy and one year old girl. We pray and talk about all the time of him adopting our oldest son Andrew. It’s something we talk about all the time. And I can’t wait for the day it will happen. I’m so hopeful it will. But I thank god every night for blessing my son with the father he deserves and to look up too. I thank him everyday for being an amazing father.

[@pinkdancer103]

A silent viewer here, I decided to break my silence today. I clicked on the messy house tour originally, and saw this on recommended and immediately clicked this video instead because I watch a ton of your videos and I had zero idea any of your kids were adopted until I listened to the entire story. I loved listening to it and I shared it with my Dad, because it's so similar to our own. When he met my mother, he took my older brother and I in, always treated us as his own. I took his last name because my birth father was out of the picture and as far as I knew my whole life, he was my real dad, however, he wasn't able to adopt me and at 22, it doesn't seem necessary. I am so so happy for all of you that you were able to do so, I love your family and your videos, thank you for sharing this.

[@jennifermaxfield3180]

Thank you so much for sharing! This is my biggest fear if something were to happen to me my son would go live with someone he barely knows. My husband has been in our life since he was 6 months. My son has only know him as his dad. I pray everyday that one day my sons father will let my husband adopt him.

[@lrwilson01]

Thank you for this video! My husband and I have had temporary custody of our nephew for 10 years now. He came to live with us when he was three. He goes and visits his mom every weekend and she refuses to let us adopt him. We have been supporting him the whole time with no help from either mom or dad. It's been a long and rough road so it makes me happy to hear good adoption stories and it gives me hope!

[@lizzyandfamily7656]

lrwilson01 aww I really hope you guys get to adopt him 🙏

[@PHILLIPSFamBam]

Thanks for sharing. I have realized that sometimes they don't allow it because it is the last thing they can hold on to as a parent. I can at least respect that fact that she sees him every weekend. That was not our case at all. I feel like the push for ours was that when their father would actually call, so much time had passed in between calls that it eventually caught up with him. He was missing too much and the kids were getting older. I think reality sunk in that he really didn't know them and that if he really wanted what was best for them he would allow it to happen. I feel like God softened his heart and we are so grateful for it. ---Danny

[@brittneysteilkie3859]

This means the world to me to watch. My husband is adopting my daughter from my pervious marriage next month! You are a special dad and person !!!

[@PHILLIPSFamBam]

Thanks Brittney!

[@kimberlyalloway916]

Great story for a great family. Awesome dad, so many kids don't have that in their life. Thanks for sharing.

[@MetalScrappinChick]

I shed some tears right along with you guys. It's such a beautiful story with the happiest of happy endings. I did not know that Braden and Ashlynn were not Danny's kids because, like you said Tina, he's always treating them just like his own. Danny is an awesome man and I loved hearing your story 😊

[@PHILLIPSFamBam]

+MetalScrappinChick you are so sweet! Thank you so much!❤️ --tina

[@terrichilders1772]

I have just started following you guys and have fell in love. I would have never know those two were adopted. What an amazing story. Here is ours... We are in the process of adopting my great niece. I will give you the back story. It’s kind of long but I hope you read it 😊 So she went into the Foster care system in New Mexico when she was 9 months old. I didn’t know my niece had a baby because we lost touch with her when she left WI due to drugs and having warrants out for her arrest. So she stopped all communication with family. Once I found out Kyndall existed she was 13 months old. My husband our kids and myself knew without a doubt she needed to be ours. So we started the process. Because there was 2 states involved it made it much more difficult. My niece ( the birth mom) was in prison at this point but her rights had not been terminated. And because Kyndall had been in the system for so long we couldn’t get her under kinship. Had we been able to do that we would have had her sooner. WI then requires that potential parents become Liscensed Foster Care parents. So we began that process. Fast forward by the time all of it was said and done and both states agreed 12 months had past. So now she a little over 3 It then took another 2 months to get the transition and travel finalized. It took us 14 months to get her. We had never even met her in person until we basically insisted on them letting us see her before the transition. They agreed so we made the trip to NM and they allowed us to spend 10 days with her. It was all supposed to be supervised but when we met for the first time she took right to us and didn’t want us to be out of her sight. When they took her back that evening the current Foster parent informed the case worker the next morning that Kyndall barely slept and constantly asked for us. So from that day forward they let us have her all day with just returning her in the evening. She stole our hearts and we fell in Love day one. She was already calling us mommy and daddy which honestly blew every ones minds. But I know she just knew she was ours. Leaving her was the hardest thing we have had to do. We finally got her on June 14, 2017. It was the best anniversary present we could have asked for. Our anniversary was the day before on the 13th. We were still waiting for the parental rights to be terminated by NM which is not an easy process. But in August of 2017 I was able to talk to my niece while she was still in prison and asked her to relinquish her rights so we could move forward and know without a doubt that Kyndall would never be removed from us and to guarantee that this little girl grew up in a loving and safe environment. She didn’t give me an answer. But just 3 days after our conversation we got a call that she relinquished her rights. You can just imagine the excitement and tears that my whole family experienced. I forgot to mention that I have MS and with that I have many issues. One being a seizure disorder that is very erratic. So I had to get all my doctors to sign off that she would be Okay with us since I had written statements from many family and friends that would help me out. That was also a process but not as long as I thought it would take. We are now hoping that within the next two months the adoption will be finalized and she will be ours legally, because she is already our daughter. Our kids are already grown and I have 3 grandchildren from my son and daughter n law. They are 30. My daughter and son in law are 24 and actually moved in with us to make sure I had help 24/7. The lower part of our house was turned into a one bedroom apartment for them. My daughter is a nurse so I have comfort in regards to my health knowing she is so close. So we are starting all over as mommy and daddy but we wouldn’t have it in other way. We love our little girl so much that words doesn’t do it justice. We know we have a lot of challenges with her because she was born addicted to many drugs and was in the hospital from birth until 3 months for detox. This broke our hearts when we heard this but it didn’t detour us from fighting for her. She has an emotional behavioral disorder as well as others. We know there are always a chance that other things can arise at anytime because of being born addicted but we are confident we can get her through it especially with all the support and resources we already have been using. So this is our story. 😊 On a different note- Go Packers!! We are totally Packer Backers and have had the pleasure of going to many games and meeting many team members 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼. So cool that you guys are Packer fans too!! Gooooo Pack!! 💚💛💚💛

[@claimedgames212]

I am also a large Packers fan and always have been.

[@CLLSx0]

I came across your video's by accident but I was instantly hooked! You guy's have the most beautiful connection, it warms my heart. It's so wonderful to watch! I never thought I'd be so interested in watching people do hauls and grocery shop! Even my boyfriend is interested and I can't get him to watch anything. You guy's are magical! This story is amazing, I didn't think I could like you guys anymore than I already did, but your such an amazing family. Danny you are such a great man, this is absolutely beautiful ♡

[@ritacloud6500]

That was a awesome story, I would have never known because you all are such a close and happy family. I love your videos, I'm a fairly new subscriber so I'm still working my way through all your past videos. I enjoy your family so much!!!

[@AmandaLander]

Love this! My husband and I started dating when my son was 5. He’s been the best dad to him ❤️ He’s now 21!

[@shannonschmidt8817]

Danny you are an awesome person and dad. It takes a special person to go from being a single man to a dad of 2. Thank you for being one of the good guys.

[@PHILLIPSFamBam]

Thanks Shannon that actually means a lot

[@janetsmith5948]

What a great story. Thanks for sharing.

[@abbye8482]

Oh I didn't know this. So nice you get along so well, I honestly thought you were their biological father. You seemed to get along so well with all the children. They are so lucky you two found each other, those kids will benefit for life that you get along so well with the older children. My brother married a woman with young kids and they love him so much, they sided with my brother who adopted them, when they divorced. Now the kids are in their 30's and visit and keep in touch and are friends with my brother more than their actual biological mother. My brother married again, and his adopted children from first marriage are closer to my brother than their biological mother! He is "Dad" and truly are close, he IS their father.

[@bdavisnc88]

God works in His own time. Glad that Danny was able to adopt Braden and Ashlyn. He seems to be a really good dad.

[@amandawentzell6170]

Listening to your story bring tears to my eyes, as I think of my son and my husband. My wonderful husband stepped up just like you and took on my 10 year old son. He loves him so much and he is the only father figure my son has had. My sons dad is very limited visits with him. I have always been the same way about being honest. Do to my health issues we never were able to have more children to add to our family. He never formally adopted him, as my son is an adult and everything, but he has plans to change his last name to his for a surprise in the near future. It takes a truly amazing man, to step into a dad roll. I always live by the saying. Anyone can be a father, but it takes a special kind soul to have the word step or adopted in front of that word.

[@aliciaoisen2552]

I stumbled upon the video of Braden coming home from his mission & so I havent been around super long but i NEVER knew this story... which in my opinion, speaks for itself! How amazing! Makes me love yall even more!!!!

[@pjangskitchen5875]

I was crying the whole time. You guys are amazing people!

[@StephenPStubbs]

Love you guys too. My whole family loves you.

[@marabeam9532]

My parents adopted an 8 month old little girl and a 3 year old little boy. They both made me a Big sister and I'm forever grateful and blessed. They are now 6 and 8. Our Family is forever complete. I love the idea of adoption. That'll definitely be the way I become a mom. God bless you all!

[@PamperedChefPatty]

Your families story is so similar to ours. I was a single mom of 3 when my husband and I meant. He stepped into the roll of dad. Never step dad. Men like Danny and my husband are rare treasurers. I feel a strong bond with your family now.

[@dianegould1696]

I wondered, thanks for sharing.

[@denise-rw9yf]

Love, Love this story. I know God is blessing you and your kids.

I love hearing the kids giggling and getting along in the background.

[@mootar1]

Amen! Glory to God! Our story is similar!!!

[@angelv527]

awesome!!! true love what a wonderful blessing!

[@angelv527]

I completely understand your story. My daughter was 9 when I met my husband Robert he was our savior and is a wonderful father to her. She's now 21 he didn't adopt her but he is her father through and through.

What a beautiful story! I love that you give Thanks to Our Heavenly Father 🙌 I too was a single mother and was blessed to meet someone to accept my daughter as his own 💜 Thank you for sharing this! God bless you 💜

[@DivineSurprise]

We have gone through something similar -- except I am the step mother. No adoption -- yet. I loved hearing this story because so many people don't get it until you go through it. I relate to guys on a whole other level now. Thank you for sharing!

[@jessicaeaton3183]

totally got emotional watching but in a good way. my boys were 3 and 8 months old when we met and he quickly became Daddy. My second sons first word was Dada. As they grew up they started asking why they had a different last name as the man who has always been here and call dad. When my husband wanted to adopt them we had to ask their Bio dad to relinquish his rights. Even though he has never been around. When we asked him he seriously laughed at us and said 'Why would I do anything to make you happy?'

[@michellehawksworth5944]

Jessica Eaton that’s horrible. Isn’t happy himself so doesn’t want you to be happy. Very much a childish mentality I don’t want kids but I don’t want anyone else having them.

[@GAPeachCooksandCreates]

Such a heartwarming story. Found you through Noreen's kitchen who dropped your name in one of their videos so I looked y'all up. Glad I found you and I subscribed. Been catching up on all your videos. Thanks for sharing 😁👍

2.5yrs ago my 20yr old got to know and spend 5 weeks (he hadn’t seen him since he was 3.5yrs old) with his dad before his dad passed away from cancer and my 6yr old hasn’t seen his dad since he was 5 days old. Your a beautiful man Danny, all your kids are lucky to have you 💙

[@MyMason100]

So sweet !!!!!!!!

[@chelseablum3443]

After six years of my husband being in my daughters life he finally got to adopt here, she has known him since she was 18 months old and her father was also in and out of her life, it was a true blessing for us when he father agreed to let my husband adopt our daughter. Great story, rings home for us.

[@lydiamathis9772]

What a beautiful story! I am currently a single mother of two toddlers myself, and watching this story definitely got rid of any doubts I had about finding a man that will love my children as their own. Thank you so much for sharing!

[@PHILLIPSFamBam]

+Lydia Mathis All in Gods timing! Blessings to you!

[@tagah7702]

I honestly had no idea that They weren’t biologically Dani’s children because the way acts around all the kids is that there’s no difference in the amount of love and compassion for any of the kids that Dani provides all I noticed is that Dani’s a wonderful father. Lot of love for you guys x❤️

[@kristavandeweghe1423]

You two are GOALS in everyday!

[@PHILLIPSFamBam]

Thank you!

[@Weswife1998]

I praise Danny, it is NOT easy.. I have been with my husband since I was 17 years old, and when we started to date he was 24, divorced with two children that were 3 & 4. Now were 41 & 49, married 20 years with two children of our own that are 18 & 15, the two older ones are now 28 & 29. Being a step mom was and is NOT easy, still to this day.. But through God's will I take it and strive.. I also had a step dad who is now my dad, my step dad came into my life when I was 7, my biological father was absent my who life till I was 30 years old and he got very sick and I had to take him into my home and take care of him. I am so grateful for my step dad, and I don't call him that because anyone can be a FATHER but it takes a special person to be a Daddy!!

[@tanya32757]

This is the second time that I’ve seen this video. All I can say is that, Danny, you are a good man!!! Just the fact that Braden kept asking his biological father if you could adopt him meant that he always saw you as his real father. God bless your lovely family!

[@dchannel2139]

Im 28yo, raised by my mom only. It's great but story like this makes me wish that i have a dad in my life too. Thank you Danny for loving ashlynn and braden as your own.

[@lithottamera6089]

My late husband (he passed away June 2018) always been there for my older son. My older son is from my 1st marriage. But my 2nd (late husband) and my older son had a great relationship. My older son and his real father never had a great relationship

[@brittneypugh4125]

I love this story. I was adopted when I was a baby and have since met my biological family. I'm thankful that I had a biological mother that loved me so much that she knew it was in my best interest to give me up. I'm lucky to have been adopted by a wonderful family that loves me so much. I was always told that being adopted means you're special. It means you were chosen!

[@crystalb.-atexaninaz4482]

When my parents were married in January 1975, my dad adopted my brother & me. He's been the greatest gift we ever received, and is the best dad I could have ever asked for. I say all the time that we are fortunate that he chose us.

[@cheritovar9382]

That's a great story thank you for sharing something so personal. Until I heard this story I literally would have never guessed you are a beautiful family and I really enjoy watching you guys almost everyday 😊

Wow! Not even 2 minutes in and you guys have me in tears. Love is a very powerful thing. I knew you guys had an awesome family and I could tell that Danny was special he is an awesome husband/father and this just proves it further. Tina ya'll are blessed! Tina your an awesome mom as well, like you, I was blessed with an awesome husband who claims my 5 children as his own and he has 2 of his own. Blessed and highly favored. There is something to be said about a man that will step up and take care of children that is not biologically theirs and I for one have the utmost respect for them. Blessings to your family always!!! Now back to the video.

This video was so beautiful and raw, thank you so much for sharing a piece of your life.

Oh how I know what she went through! My oldest is 9 and his dad is not in his life! My husband and I met in 2013 and he loved me and my 2 kids immediately! We are going to look into him adopting my oldest. My other child is a whole other story but thanks for sharing this! Had me in tears! ❤️
