Yes I feel the same way. I would have cried for her I think. It seemed like her baby was just taken right when she was born. Maybe she didn’t want to hold her but who knows. The most selfless loving act she ever did was give her little girl up. Beautiful.
I think she was generous the very moment she decided not to have an abortion! When she gave the baby to be adopted, she really saved lots of money and kept her independence. After all she was the one who got pregnant! I know it should be terrible to enter the hospital being full time pregnant to leave with your arms empty but there is kind of a responsibility to assume. She was brave and she did the best for the baby. No one said life's easy.
I never said she never did what’s best for her baby..I’m saying like any mother would, she has emotions that are natural when it comes to the human condition and that is grief and loss of her child. No life isn’t easy... that’s why my heart goes out to her and brings me to tears knowing that she gave her precious gift away to have a better life. And I would never give up my baby to save money...(I might also add that would never choose the path of abortion either and I’m glad the birth mother made such a beautiful selfless gift of love by choosing to put her baby up for adoption.
I was born in January 1964. Adopted one month later. But it was not final for 1 year. For one year my folks loved me and took care care of me and held their breath.Lucky me, I was allowed to stay and they were the best parents. Thank you birth mom. you made the right choice and I love you.
God will bless your selfless love for your son he understands your love as a mother no matter who may be his mother now, for all eternity your souls are connected he hasn't really been separated from you , but as a true test of God's unconditional pure love you did an awesome thing and I hope despite the human attatchment we may have that believes we are seperate beings, your true eternal soul knows you walked the talk in the test of selfless love, I hope when you think of him you can smile knowing you were able to put him before your own need or deepest desire to nurture him yourself everything has a purpose the gift you have to another family also is priceless.
I am looking for Ethel Rose Vaughan Dwine, daughter of Compton Vaughan, and Mary Abbie Croom Vaughan, and that's how I saw this beautiful video. Might anyone or you know how I can find this Ethel Rose, please?
Just my personal opinion but adoptions should not cost 60-80 grand. If a woman wants another woman to parent her baby the government should mind it's own business. Babies should not be sold. Seriously
Kristin Gallo yes and no. It should definitely be cheaper but keep in mind if it was free anyone could adopt and some people should really not be given the chance to do so.
@@Flyonangelwings4 some biological parents are neglectful or abusive. I'm saying that if my teen brothers girlfriend wants to give me her baby (I'm a mom anyways so 1 more doesn't make a difference) then the government should not charge me to raise my own family. In my opinion the government has way to much control over personal lives. Theres no test for who will be abusive and who won't. My father was a coach in a suburb but drank daily and beat me. My husband's mother was broke and alone but his childhood was way better than mine. If 2 women make a decision it should be theirs alone
Kristin Gallo r u for real? I get what u mean about abusive people shouldn’t get given the chance but 1 more child makes a whole lot of difference. Your talking about somebody’s life u know. That child would no longer be a only child anymore, think about the costs and general bills I was a teen mum I’ve got 3 children and trust me that second child was a huge change so make sure you actually think about it. No hate btw.
@@kendraknox8835 not in my life it doesn't. I raised 4 step children oldest is 22, took custody of my brother who is now 18 and I have 4 I gave birth to oldest is 12 youngest is 18 months. So no, one more makes no difference in my life. You either prioritize family or you want things. And my point on abuse is people think a big bank account and good job makes someone "decent" and a good person, but that's not how real life works. Diapers cost about 25 dollars a month, people say it's to expensive to take care of babies, but these same people will drop 800 on a new iPhone every year and spend hundreds on beauty products every month.
@@kendraknox8835 I'm a 37 year old married woman. Lmao. I've been a mother since I was 23. I had 3 in a row on top of step children. I know what taking care of children means. Some of us still like big families.
NO todo el mundo está de acuerdo con las adopciones. En España se tardan unos 10 años más o menos y al final son tantas las dificultades que mucha gente no sigue adelante. Ya vemos que allí es más fácil.
This makes me so happy. Your video caught my eye for the title. My sweet 90 year old grandma passed away a week ago. Her name? Ethel Rose. You picked an amazing name, it will serve her well.
She's such an amazing momma, she went all of her way to research, learn and took meds to nurse her daughter, this is so beautiful! My heart is warm. She's such an lucky girl! 💗🇧🇷 Much love from Brazil.
Beautiful!! The birth parents that choose to do what is best for their child have my upmost respect. I know it is the hardest most painful decision they will ever make but they loved their baby enough to want a better life than they can provide. That is the most selfless love any child deserves. They give the answer to so many prayers of people that can't have their own child. It also shows blood doesn't make love. Love is as full and as beautiful as it should be. Thank you for sharing your journey and hurdles so many face to become parents. Best of wishes and health to your family
Bless you all! After 10 yrs of failed medical procedures and failed adoptions we got pregnant! I had given up and was in nursing school but gave it up to stay home with our baby boy with no regrets. Congratulations and enjoy!
'Adoption is expensive' - that just breaks my heart. In england the costs are so minimal and adopting abroad isn't even that expensive from the UK. So strange for it to be pricey, making a profit from adoption isn't a kind act, not at all.
@Artoria Pendragon 🤣🤣🤣 What WORLD are you living in!?!? THERE ARE THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF KIDS WHO NEED FAMILIES AND ARE PUT INTO THE FOSTER CARE SYSTEM BECAUSE THERE IS NO WHERE FOR THEM TO GO. THE DEMAND IS HUGE. WHERE ARE YOU PULLING YOUR INFORMATION FROM?!?
@@PraymoreMinistries She's right in a way. MOST people want a baby, not a child. This is why typically the waiting list for newborns is years long. What we need is people that will also adopt older children, but that also takes a family that is prepared and very stable since many of these children come with emotional challenges.
@@LuckyLuciano7there's no "simulated". Women can breastfeed without being pregnant or giving birth. It amazes me the amount of adults that do not understand basic biology.
I'm happy for this couple but can't help but think of the birth mum, her courage and selflessness. If you are seeing this birth mum I think you are the real shinning light of this story and I'm praying that you are ok x
YOU are a lovely family! BOTH of you have a lot of empathy for animals so you are going to be wonderful parents also Ethel will be brought up to love animals!!
Let's give thanks and say a prayer for birth mom. She's the true gift. I can't imagine giving up either one of my boys. It's stomach churning. Heartbreaking. She is the one who who deserves every single thought, positive vibe, and love.
enhorabuena.....soy español.....y aqui apreciamos mucho...mucho la llegada de un nuevo ser.....nos encanta a los españoles....solo os pido y sobre todo a el....que lo viva lo maximo todo lo q tenga q ver con el bebe......no te arrepentiras.... te lo a seguro... te lo dice un padre q lo ha vivido mucho todo dos hijas y cuando digo todo es todo... y contaba cuentos todos las noches a sus hijas...cuantas noches me he acostado llorando de FELICIDAD...viendo a mis hijas dormirse... 3..minutos? 4 minutos .. es... una pasada , verlas y como te piden q les cuentes mas.....y se duermennnnnn.... yo como padre, tendria q pagar por ello... he disfrutado mucho..de ellas... y se me ha hecho corto todo el proceso...lo siento por mi....solo puedo decir que las quiero con toda mi alma...y siento no estar ..cuando no este.....y me necesiten...solo espero... que sepan de verdad que las hemos querido de verdad.. y no se si ellas lo sienten.. o no ..de todos modos muchas gracias por permitirnos haberos conocido...en esta vida sin pediros permiso para nacer o estar con nosotros......besos...
Your house looks like a Pinterest board. Very talented w decorating style! :) Congrats beautiful family! Prayers , blessings + gratitude to birth mom too!
7 weeks ago I gave up my daughter for adoption. It was the hardest decision I have ever had to make. Congratulations on getting picked for that beautiful girl. I have an open adoption with them so can see her whenever I want to.
Wow!! What a selfless, loving and heartbreaking decision that must have been. That takes serious courage and strength. I can only imagine just how difficult that decision was to make. How beautiful that you have an open adoption and that you can still see her!!❤️ We have an open adoption too and I’m SO thankful for Ethel’s birth Mom. She will always be a part of our lives and Ethel’s story.
Oooh how sweet! You must really be looking forward to seeing her and the family. I hope it goes well and that you also feel really loved on that day. ❤️
b&d exploration you have made one of the most selfless decisions any woman could ever make and should be truely proud that you not only made the best decision you could but you also created a family xx
Beautiful story :-) So happy for you all ! Your baby is sweet. My daughter gave two of her babies up for adoption. Both are open and we get pictures and updates. It truly is a gift that keeps on giving for all involved. I know both of my grandchildren are loved and cared for.
What an absolutely beautiful gift bio mother has given you .. to personally choose you and ask for you to be there at the hospital.. must have been so hard yet fulfilling for her .. and beautiful for you to finally become parents x
It really goes to show how big the Heart is, i bet they wouldnt love any different if they had made me this Baby. Its clearly thier Baby, this makes me so Happy. God Bless you two and your little Blessing
Thank you for shairng! As someone who recently learned that I was adopted, it gives me a sense of the joy that my parents experienced when they adopted me within my first month. You'll make amazing parents!!! God bless you!!!
Madame , Monsieur , votre démarche est admirable !!! touchante , émouvante , votre amour et affection pour cette enfant transpire et elle; deviendra sans aucun doute une personne superbe , cela me fait un bien fou.
@@SimplementeYesenia76 There are medications which cause lactation, but a woman can also induce lactation by using a breast pump regularly. It's time consuming, but so worth it.
I just can't believe this .... for 82 years I have had the name Ethel and have been teased, short named, and told I should change my name but I could not because I was named after my grandmother and I adored her. I hope your darling wee girl can handle it also.
When you said, "that was the day we got the call" reminds me of the story my mom tells when she found out she was matched with me! I was only 2 days old when she came to get me 💗 I will be putting in my papers to adopt this year! Congratualtions guys!
What a beautiful story, my brother was adopted and both him and I grew up in a loving home just as your darling Ethel Rose will, I wish you joy as new parents and sending big hugs from Ireland for Ethel Rose!🇨🇮
June 21st is my moms birthday 😊 the summer solstice 🌞 a day of sunshine beamed down into your life! Thank you for sharing your story its absolutely beautiful
Beautiful story!! And your baby is soooooo beautiful!!!! I'm in tears right now. It's wonderful to see people be so loving and caring and turn a struggle into success.
So impressed by the way the video was done. Such beautiful angle shots, looks so professional. Love ur adoption story too. Something tells me that the two of you will have your biological baby someday...
Beautiful!! It’s such an accomplishment to induce lactation and for the best cause! Way to go Mamma!! I don’t think I’ve ever seen a video of such a deserving couple 🥰 Peace and love to you both, from a local Mainland Doula & LLLeader 🙋🏼♀️
I too have never seen a Adoptive Mommy breast feeding her baby it must of been hard work? Well done you that's amazing. What a beautiful baby she is. Must love from the uk 🇬🇧 xxxx
That is the cutest baby @Ethel was my favorite Aunts name who lived an amazing life to the age of 98....I wish a Long@ happy healthy life to Ethel Rose 💙🙏💙🌈
It’s hard to let go of your child. Much respect to the mother who chose a better life for her child. I’ve been in her position, while I ultimately decided to keep my daughter I’ve been there looking through those profiles. It’s not an easy choice but thank you for choosing life.
Oh my goodness! She is one of the most beautiful babies I have ever seen! I can see you guys read the Bible, how awesome!! Our heavenly Father always provides for our needs! Thank you for sharing this heavenly story!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for the awesome video and sharing your story. Its really inspiring and amazing to see the process work. We are being faced with the same problems. Our emotions are all over the place and we are now beginning to talk about adoption. This video was a wonderful story that really opened a lot of dialogue between my wife and I. Thank-you.
Such a beautiful adoption story, I was adopted and I feel so blessed! I just gave birth in January to a beautiful little girl as well. What a beautiful baby girl she is and what a beautiful name you have both chosen. Thanks for sharing. ❤❤
She is SO cute! We adopted a baby girl in March 2011 and she is now 8 years old. I wasn’t able to have kids either... adoption is so amazing! 🌸💕 I love my baby girl more than anything in the world. Enjoy the amazing journey! ❤️
Ahh time flies. So thankful you have your incredible daughter. 💗 I can’t imagine my life without Ethel. I love her so much. Thank you for your kind words.
We are at the early stages of our domestic adoption process in BC, thanks for sharing your story. It’s a breath of fresh air to see God fulfill your longing for a child, we are hopeful for the same result. We have lots of sweet nieces and nephew but no little ones of our own.......yet 🌈
Oh WOW! I’m so excited for you! The adoption journey is exciting, and can be full of emotions. I’m so hopeful for you guys!!! The waiting is so worth it once you have your child in your arms. It may not feel like it now, but trust me, it is so worth it!!!❤️
Ugh I’m so sorry that it was disrupted! I can only imagine just how painful and frustrating and saddening that must be! Are you guys hanging in there? Leaning on our close friends and family during the ups and downs of our adoption journey helped us to feel like we could keep going. Hoping you feel like you can lean on someone close to you too! Sending you guys big hugs!❤️
@@thetbos6566 We're actually ok. It was sad for the first week they took him away, but we met the birth mom in the hospital. After talking to her for close to three hours, we're sure he'll be loved.... just not by us. The way our agency works is that the placement fee is held in escrow until next baby comes along. We'd never put the brakes on our decision. The right baby will find us - hopefully sooner than later.
Wow, what a journey this has been for you guys. It must have felt like your heart was being ripped out of your chest when he was taken away from you. I can only imagine. How incredible though that you were able to take Keith his birth mom and connect with her. The knowledge that she will be taking care of him, and loving him must have made things a little more bearable for you guys. Sounds like you’re such a kind and thoughtful person. You’re keeping things in perspective and focusing on the future. Praying that your future baby comes to you soon, and that your heart explodes with so much love!! Believing it will happen!❤️
Congratulations on the arrival of your darling baby girl, truly a gift from God. Couldn't help but tear up when they placed her in your arms. Bless you all.
Beautiful !!!!! I was adopted 22 years ago by the NICU nurse who took care of me after i was born . I wanna adopt someday.. its so expensive though . Congrats 💓💓 sweet story 🎀
Super.. Lovely parents for the baby. The baby must be sooo gifted to get such wonderful, amazing, lovable and affectionate parents. Happy parenting to the lovely couple.. 👌👌👍😍💐🌹
Let's also take a moment for the birth mom.. she was so generous giving this precious gift to other people to take care of ❤

Adoption is wonderful, I know, when I was 3 years old I was adopted. My adoptive parents are gone now but they gave me a wonderful childhood.
Is it not as expensive for someone from Cali to adopt there?
My son adopted two from Russia, and it cost them/us an arm and a leg!!
I gave up my son 34 years ago and there is not a day go by I haven't thought of him. It was the hardest yet most important decision I ever made.
Diane Hamik hugs... Hugs
good or you! takes a strong mama to make that sacrifice
Brave decision . There are steps you can take now to find your son, registries to sign up if he's trying to locate you.
May God bless and comfort you for your amazing sacrifice. I can't even imagine.
God will bless your selfless love for your son he understands your love as a mother no matter who may be his mother now, for all eternity your souls are connected he hasn't really been separated from you , but as a true test of God's unconditional pure love you did an awesome thing and I hope despite the human attatchment we may have that believes we are seperate beings, your true eternal soul knows you walked the talk in the test of selfless love, I hope when you think of him you can smile knowing you were able to put him before your own need or deepest desire to nurture him yourself everything has a purpose the gift you have to another family also is priceless.

When you said, "that was the day we got the call" reminds me of the story my mom tells when she found out she was matched with me! I was only 2 days old when she came to get me 💗 I will be putting in my papers to adopt this year! Congratualtions guys!
❤️
So special!
I so love that this mamma is breastfeeding!! Way to go!!!
This was so touching... I am crying and the baby she is just so everything! Good luck with your family!
What a beautiful story, my brother was adopted and both him and I grew up in a loving home just as your darling Ethel Rose will, I wish you joy as new parents and sending big hugs from Ireland for Ethel Rose!🇨🇮
Congratulations on your beautiful baby girl. Such a blessing.💕💕
June 21st is my moms birthday 😊 the summer solstice 🌞 a day of sunshine beamed down into your life! Thank you for sharing your story its absolutely beautiful
Beautiful story!! And your baby is soooooo beautiful!!!! I'm in tears right now. It's wonderful to see people be so loving and caring and turn a struggle into success.
Thank you for watching our story. Your words mean so much to us!
So impressed by the way the video was done. Such beautiful angle shots, looks so professional.
Love ur adoption story too.
Something tells me that the two of you will have your biological baby someday...
The baby is blessed to have adopted parents.
Such a beautiful story
Beautiful!! It’s such an accomplishment to induce lactation and for the best cause! Way to go Mamma!! I don’t think I’ve ever seen a video of such a deserving couple 🥰
Peace and love to you both, from a local Mainland Doula & LLLeader 🙋🏼♀️
Wow, thank you, THANK YOU! Your words mean so much to us!! Xo

Good you did that. All adopted babies deserve that closeness. God bless.
Simply. Perfect. 👼
Many congrats & blessings on your tiny bundle of joy! ✨💖
I appreciate those people that adopt and love those children. And for the mother who decided to give her child for adoption, instead of abortion.
I pray God is blessing this beautiful child's birth Mother ❤
I believe the people that disliked we’re too caught up crying and missed the like button 🥺💖💖
That is the cutest baby @Ethel was my favorite Aunts name who lived an amazing life to the age of 98....I wish a Long@ happy healthy life to Ethel Rose 💙🙏💙🌈
Cue the tears. What a beautiful story! My baby had the exact same due date! First day of summer
Awww yay!!! Yes our babes birthdays are coming up SOON! How does time fly so fast?? 😭❤️
What a lucky little girl ❤ And peace to the birth mom. 💕
Thank you!!
The best adoption way I have ever seen!
What a lovely couple, lovely home and beautiful angel! I’m really happy for them I hope their lives continue to be blessed.❤️🥰👶🏻
It’s hard to let go of your child. Much respect to the mother who chose a better life for her child. I’ve been in her position, while I ultimately decided to keep my daughter I’ve been there looking through those profiles. It’s not an easy choice but thank you for choosing life.
Oh my goodness! She is one of the most beautiful babies I have ever seen! I can see you guys read the Bible, how awesome!! Our heavenly Father always provides for our needs! Thank you for sharing this heavenly story!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wow thank you for your kind words! Yes, our God has us in His hands, every step of the way. Oh how we’re grateful for that!! ❤️
Pity he didn't provide for the poor mother to keep her baby!
I did not know you could nurse if you haven't been pregnant. You are amazing.
Fay Dove I agree with you
Thanks for the awesome video and sharing your story. Its really inspiring and amazing to see the process work. We are being faced with the same problems. Our emotions are all over the place and we are now beginning to talk about adoption. This video was a wonderful story that really opened a lot of dialogue between my wife and I. Thank-you.
Hi. Thanks for your comment. I’m so glad this video was encouraging to you guys. All the best to you and your wife, and the journey you’re on.
Such a beautiful adoption story, I was adopted and I feel so blessed! I just gave birth in January to a beautiful little girl as well. What a beautiful baby girl she is and what a beautiful name you have both chosen. Thanks for sharing. ❤❤
Awww yay! Congratulations to you!! And thank you for your kind words
She is SO cute! We adopted a baby girl in March 2011 and she is now 8 years old. I wasn’t able to have kids either... adoption is so amazing! 🌸💕 I love my baby girl more than anything in the world. Enjoy the amazing journey! ❤️
Ahh time flies. So thankful you have your incredible daughter. 💗 I can’t imagine my life without Ethel. I love her so much.
Thank you for your kind words.
Que niña! Tan afortunada, oremos para mas familias se encuentren!!
Such a precious family , so much love !!
We are at the early stages of our domestic adoption process in BC, thanks for sharing your story. It’s a breath of fresh air to see God fulfill your longing for a child, we are hopeful for the same result. We have lots of sweet nieces and nephew but no little ones of our own.......yet 🌈
Oh WOW! I’m so excited for you! The adoption journey is exciting, and can be full of emotions. I’m so hopeful for you guys!!! The waiting is so worth it once you have your child in your arms. It may not feel like it now, but trust me, it is so worth it!!!❤️
And also praying 🙏 Your Dream will come true SOON!
Awwwww. I'm glad your adoption worked out. My spouse and I just had a disrupted adoption last week. Trying to muddle through.
Ugh I’m so sorry that it was disrupted! I can only imagine just how painful and frustrating and saddening that must be! Are you guys hanging in there? Leaning on our close friends and family during the ups and downs of our adoption journey helped us to feel like we could keep going. Hoping you feel like you can lean on someone close to you too! Sending you guys big hugs!❤️
@@thetbos6566 We're actually ok. It was sad for the first week they took him away, but we met the birth mom in the hospital. After talking to her for close to three hours, we're sure he'll be loved.... just not by us. The way our agency works is that the placement fee is held in escrow until next baby comes along. We'd never put the brakes on our decision. The right baby will find us - hopefully sooner than later.
Wow, what a journey this has been for you guys. It must have felt like your heart was being ripped out of your chest when he was taken away from you. I can only imagine. How incredible though that you were able to take Keith his birth mom and connect with her. The knowledge that she will be taking care of him, and loving him must have made things a little more bearable for you guys. Sounds like you’re such a kind and thoughtful person. You’re keeping things in perspective and focusing on the future. Praying that your future baby comes to you soon, and that your heart explodes with so much love!! Believing it will happen!❤️
*that you were able to talk to his birth mom...
That is wonderful I am so excited for you guys I can't wait to see what she looks like when she grows up
Thank you!

“That’s when you realize everyone is a bad driver” says every new mom!!
