This couple had a baby girl after so many years of trying they now have a new baby & he is a big brother now. They are great parents!! With so much love.
All these people saying "Why would you adopt a black baby" Why not?? Would you rather that baby sit in foster care until a black family is found to adopt.
I totally agree with you Penny because at the end of the day it's a BABY 🍼 it doesn't matter about the SKIN COLOR..BOY,GIRL & or ECT. I'm STARTING to REALIZE that more and more now because I myself have a BIRACIAL son who is my RAINBOW 🌈 BABY ♂️ BUT THE SAD PART IS it's so MANY EVIL people in this WORLD!!& The ONLY THING THEY SEE IS(COLOR)!! In my opinion there is no such thing as BLACK 🖤 OR WHITE ‼️ 🤍 BECAUSE at the end of the day we all are HUMAN BEING and we all BLEED the same COLOR WHICH IS 🤝 🩸 (R.E.D) as long as that BABY is HAPPY & HEALTHY & 😍 LOVED that's all that MATTERS!
Black woman here I watch these two and they’re the best ❤this boy has a wonderful life and they really love him. They’re giving this kid a great life and it will be great to see how he turns out in 21 yrs
I watch them too and they are a great family. But I do not agree that just any White people should adopt a Black baby or child because we have already seen how that turned out on that video of the gay white guy bushing that babies head like a dog. Not every white person or family should be allowed to adopt a Black child or baby. Ashley and her husband are different because they actually take the time to teach their son his Heritage as a Black person and not every white personal does that
I absolutely Love Ashley and Steven. I’ve been following them on TikTok and Instagram for so long. They have beautiful souls. I loved that they adopted baby boy allowed his birth mother to be apart of his life ❤
Oh and I had another comment. The father son bond that Stephen and abriel has is so beautiful to watch. This man is so in love with his son and his son is so in love with his dad. They couldn't be any closer than if he was their biological son. Their relationship is so beautiful to watch. I just love it❤❤❤❤
Ashley and Steven are the most realistic couple I've seen, they are selfless and able to look at the bigger picture and so is Makhaila, this is pure love
I think this entire situation was divinely orchestrated. There’s no doubt how much love exists between Steven, Ashley, and MaKayla and they are meant to be in each other’s lives exactly as they are. No more and no less. Ashley got to learn that she doesn’t have to carry a baby to be a mother, and now that she’s pregnant, she gets to experience both sides of motherhood…that’s beautiful, and really special. MaKayla gets to be TT and watch Abriel become a big brother without the additional emotional/physical aspect of giving birth… i think this has all worked out for the betterment of everyone involved.
They are doing this the BEST WAY!!! That boy is going up knowing his birth mom and his adopted parents. What would be confusing is him growing up and recognizing he is different because of his skin color and then wondering why. Him knowing from birth that momma Kayla is his birth mom will be much more healing. Especially him knowing that they all have a relationship. That baby won the lottery!
100% agree. I love that he has Mama Makayla in his life. I think this is the healthiest way to be adopted. He will know he was given up out of love and be able to have a relationship with multiple adults who love him.
When the dad 8:26 said we wanted him to know he was given up out of love not because he wasn’t wanted I almost cried ! So many children believe they are given up because they aren’t wanted when their parents just want the best lift for them ! I’m happy for them and the bio mom !
Absolutely because the ignorance on that fact is enormous most people always assume negative the moment they hear anyone has given a child up for adoption. When there are numerous reasons and it doesn't really matter to me especially when the child will at least get a chance at life with someone who does want children.
I think sometimes the adults are the ones that complicate things. This little boy was adopted by a set of parents who loves him, and I bloody well wish that every little girl or boy out in the world caught up in a bad, and unsafe environment would have a better chance of life with parents like these. God bless them, they’re trying to do the right thing all round.
I feel like like this is a new style blended family. It's beautiful that they all were able to process this in a way that's strictly for them and not for the world.
I love that they were honest with him from the jump. It hurts more later when you feel you were lied to your whole life. When he's an adult he can choose what to call her but children deserve the truth also.
I really appreciate this man’s way of questioning. Appropriate but he gets right to the root of the issue instead of dancing around anything. He’s direct, but in a way to make sure he’s still being careful with the scenario.
I follow this beautiful family on TH-cam, and see nothing but pure LOVE!!! This little boy is well-adjusted, healthy, and HAPPY!!! I absolutely adore them!!
I totally understand and can relate. I wasn't raised with my parents but they were still in my life. They're trying to make it easier for their son. I commend them.
I've always found it strange that people get angry when a child has MORE love than what is deemed socially acceptable? Abe is such a sweet and extremely emotionally intelligent little boy and I believe his parents, his bio mother and sisters have taught him a great deal about the limitless power of Love.
So many adopted children are kept in the dark about their adoption and the effects are astronomical. My grandmothers best friend was given one of the dna test kits like 23 and me a few years back and at 74 years old she found out through that test that her mom and dad were not her biological parents. Her parents bio and adopted are all dead. All her siblings were later confirmed to be the biological children of the adopted parents. I mean the impact it had was huge. One day she’s the oldest of 9 siblings and within a month she learns she has no biological family. It’s heart wrenching. So the fact that McKayla is so involved is beautiful and I love the special friendship that they’ve created. McKayla is such an amazing woman and mother. I mean she’s so beautiful and selfless.
I've been around several children in foster care ,,,they don't care what color the families are ,,they just want love. I heard it with my own ears. Stop the racial barriers and think about the feelings of rejected children...
Just seeing this. I never came across you guys on tiktok. But the Lord began sending me notifications. And this family makes me smile everytime I get one. Much love to this beautiful family🙏🙌✝️
We stand firmly behind Abriel's parents. They have done an outstanding job on raising a wonderful young boy to date. I'm so grateful to God for adding a new arrival to their troop ❤
This makes me sooo infuriated!! They are doing an amazing job and keeping the birth mother as part of his life . My children are not adopted but they look very much Filipino but they are also Swedish. People have said things to me even.. where did you buy your baby!! Who does that? God bless them✝️
Wowwww. Im so sorry that is horrible no one should be treated that way . Society needs to realize Words hurt !! I think ANY LOVING HOME IS BETTER THEN NONE ! I also think two loving homes are better then ONE BAD ONE ! Everyone deserves love and a loving home. I think even two same sex couples raising &adopting a child is ok ❤️as long as the child is loved, happy & secure why does it matter!? Every family is different now a-days 🤷🏽♀️ . I’m sending good vibes only to you my dear . Keep loving and raising YOUR CHILDREN!! YOUR FAMILY !!! God knows your heart ❤️never feel like you have to explain ANYTHING TO ANYONE !!! Love your life , continue to love & raise YOUR CHILDREN!!! 🥰Love , Light & Healing ❤️🙏🏽🇨🇦
I've been following Ashley and Steven and their baby Ab and mama Kayla for a while now, absolutely love them. Beautiful family. Sometimes you have to keep your family out of your business.
My black cousin and his wife adopted 5 black brothers to keep them together. Right now the two oldest are in college. The rest are in high school. My black single female best friend who couldn’t get pregnant adopted two black boys and raised them from babies. They’re both teens now doing very well. I wish more people would adopt children of all races.
I think that what they're doing is right. My older brother was adopted. My parents never told him because they did not want him to feel different than the other kids. He found out through the grapevine, & spiralled out of control. He's now deceased. The rejection was just to great, and the fact that my family lied to keep it hidden, trying to "Protect" him, just made him all the more angry. In the end always tell the truth....It's easier to remember. Telling lies leads to turmoil.
So sry hun 😢 I do feel being open straight out the gate is more healthy but if u watch their channel the bio mom is over ALOT helps parent him etc be honest sure but their prob just need to be healthy boundaries set in place just for confusion it may cause as he grows etc and stuff he will hear from school or nowadays social media... I do agree I've known friends that we're adopted one parents was involved one where they weren't but as he gets older he's gonna wanna know why me bio mom has 3 other siblings he's def gonna ask tuff questions as he grows it's normal with adoption
I am African, from Zimbabwe. In our culture, your mother's sisters are your mums too. We literally call them mum. You might think this is confusing but trust me children know. Children understand more than you think they do. I appreciate they let her be involved it will be beneficial to him when he is older and easier for him to make sense of things.
I still watch them and she had her own bsby and carried it herself. God is good… wishing them all the best . It’s now Oct /2024 and I still follow them .. ❤️🙏🏽🇨🇦
Watching this after Ashley's pregnancy announcement brings me so much joy. God is so good! Abriel is such a lucky little boy. He gets love from everyone and now he's going to be the best big brother. Great advice on this episode!
I watch Steven and Ashley often on Utube and they are the sweetest, kindest BEST parents to their two children and such good people. They do not deserve ANY hate whatsoever.
This is the first time I'm not on the same page with Karamo. When you're growing up in that situation, you don't find it confusing until you're much older and by that time you can understand better. The important thing is that the children are surrounded by love. The same situation without care and love would be catastrophic but that's not the case in this instance.
I adopted my daughter from birth. I did an open adoption. I believe that every child should know where they came from. I got her as a newborn. She will be 22 next month. I taught her to call them big mama and big daddy.. out of respect. So I completely understand all of them !!!!
I just want to say that my girls called my mom "mom" because that's what I called her. It was never an issue or confusing. That relationship between mother (Ashley) and child is something so special as well as what his has with his birth mom. It's just different. I love how Ashley isn't threatened by that. It's because her love for her child is pure and selfless. I support this family and the decisions they are making for him. I can't wait to see how easily this 2nd baby comes into this family. It's a beautiful story ❤
I agree. As a black woman I had wondered why they adopted a black child not with hate but curiosity. Then I want he'd their channel and grew so fond of the and baby Abriel. I don't think anyone would love that child more than his adoptive parents. They have made me consider adoption.
Abe, is so LOVED❤ he’s got a bond like no other with his dad. Makayla is selfless and an incredible young woman to make the to choice to bless this family with her precious gift. God had to set it up this way and people may never understand but it works for them. I wish every child that need a parent is blessed like Abe❤
Honesty in adoption is never confusing. Dishonesty and omission is confusing. My mom has my son and he is 8 now and just found out I'm his birth mom and not his sister. That's confusing. Knowing from the beginning makes it just what it is and confusion is rarely an issue. My husband is also adopted and is very thankful his parents never told him anything other than the truth.
Ash and steve are the best parents to Abe ....and its crazy and super cute how Abe resembles his mom Ash and now their baby gal is a replica of the dad❤❤❤❤❤
They are my favorite family on TH-cam as they are so genuine. The love that they pour into their beautiful bay son Abriel is incredible. This baby is so blessed and happy. Now Ashley is pregnant and I am so happy for them. Abriel loves his parents Ashley and Steven so much! They are the most amazing couple.
This is such a complex and nuanced situation. I feel for the birth mother very much and i admire the adoptive parents. At some point lines are going to have to be set or they could create a lot of confusion for the child in effort of trying to be overly thoughtful. This is so tough because i know everyones heart is in great placem
Both of my biological parents were white. My father remarried a beautiful black woman when I was 3. My biological mother was very abusive and gave us up. My real dad and Mom, his wife who became my 100% mom when I was three have raised me. I have no contact with my biological mother and my mom is a black woman who is the best mom in the world! We had a lot of hate growing up (in the 70's and 80s) because people would say nasty things to my mom, assume she was the nanny or the maid and a lot of people said like how can that be your mom that's not your mom. But my mom is my best friend and we are very close! I'm 50 years old now and my older sister and my younger brothers and I are very close and bonded. We are the United Nations of love! Being raised by my mom was the best gift in my life and I am always grateful that I have her!
I adopted two of my nephews and I have never lied to them about who I am or kept them away from birth parents. When they grow up knowing the truth it’s not confusing for them….it will be their life any the only thing they know and because nobody has lied to them there will be no surprises and questions about who they are or who they came from.
The way they are raising that little boy,he is well mannered. I don't see him resenting them in the future. I watched a video where the mom instructed him not to eat the candies and he did even when the other kid beside him was.
I am adopted. It's complicated but you are his mother. I totally agree with the host. I was an open adoption in 1960. Very rare. My parents always told me I was adopted. My birth mother is awesome and she truly loved me, but she is my biological mother not my mother. I met my birthmother when I was 13 and then 32 and the at 45. We have developed a friendship but not a paternal relationship. I am grateful for her selfless sacrifice. Eva s you are the parents not the birthmother.
Great advice! Im happy to see, they are preparing for their biological child. Also, Mama Makelia is very attached and I agree her feelings are still very raw.. She definitely shouldn't be carrying another child for the family. I love them on social media and I wish them the best of luck and love with their soon to be new baby and extended family❤🙏
I TOTALLY AGREE WITH THE WAY ASHLEY AND STEVE DOES THINGS WITH BEING HONEST WITH THEIR BABY AND SHARING HIM WITH HIS BIOLOGICAL MOTHER AND I BELIEVE ASHLEY IS A SECURE WOMAN AND THATS WHY SHE IS UNBOTHERED. BECAUSE SHE KNOWS AS LONG AS SHE LOVES AB HE WILL LOVE SHARE THAT LOVE BACK
Loving the open, honest, and understandimg conversation happening here ... Its amazing to see theres anither way to make it work for everyone involved if possible ☺️☺️☺️ so heartwarming
God saw much they cared so well for Abe, how much they had a passion for parenthood not even caring about the color of the baby and Father God blessed them with a daughter that is biologically theirs 💗
I truly love this family, watching the special bond between his mom & Steven is so heart melting. As for Kayla, she did the most unselfish thing a parent could do. I can't imagine the emotions, as a mom of 3 girls your body knows you just gave birth. Your body is telling you time to wake up feed & change the baby, you miss the movements & the little hiccups ect. And for her willing to do this all over again for them shows just how much she loves the family she made for her son.. anyone with eyes and ears and can see the love they have for that beautiful boy is real.. I am glad she waited and they were able to conceive and have their own biological baby, because if anyone was ment to be parents it's them. I have 3 biracial daughters, 2 have their own kids now. My oldest is married to a black man, so their kids are more black with a sprinkle of white and my youngest had a 2 yr old and his daddy is white, so he's more white than black. But we don't see color in our family. I don't care what color a child is or who chooses to adopt them, as long as they are loved 100000% blood or not. Their are alot of kids in foster homes & group homes in the system who don't get kisses and stories and cuddles when they are sick or happy. That little man will never know that feeling.. from his bio mom & siblings to his adopted family as well.
Living in New Zealand 🇳🇿 The Evans Family with their beautiful baby boy. As a viewer from downunder and 💙 observing The Love ORB The Evans have lovingly made for their boy. That's all their son sees feels and lives. 💙 Being nourished in THE BEST WAY possible human kindness; mum&dad😊😊❤
I have to say that I think that love from all the parties is great!! Ashley will get pregnant, sooner than she thinks, these people are all beautiful!! What they are doing is wonderful, If you live long enough you will learn.
Ashley's mom was right - you should always try until you run out of options. I'm so glad she they had their biological baby. All in all, beautiful kind family. ❤️
Things have been quiet on the home front in regards to Mama Kayla since Ashley's miraculous pregnancy! Hmmmm? Because they have been amazing parents to their adoptive son and so generous in regards to this open adoption with his birth mother.I believe that is why God really blessed them abundantly with another child which Ashley gave birth too.
I think it still hurts her. You can tell she regrets her decision. She is happy he has a great family but her saying she wishes it was different is her saying she wishes she didn’t give him up
I don’t do TickTock, but I found you guys on TH-cam. Amazing couple and parents. Being Lebanese is why she is a great mom of any child of any ethnicity. 💚👊🏾
I remember in Social Work school we learned about adoption, foster, etc. A lot of people choose international adoption because for whatever reason, they don't want to deal with a birth family. I think it takes a lot of humility to put tbe child first
I think everyone needs to let them do what is best for their family. It works for them and that is all that matters. I think it is great because their son will never question his background. He will grow up aware and won't have the major breakdown that most adopted kids have once they find out that they are adopted.
BEAUTIFUL PARENTS WITH SO MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT FOR THEIR SON! THANK YOU! FOR ME, YOU BOTH ARE THE HANDS ON PARENTS. NOW! BEING PARENTS OF TWO BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN, YOUR SON AND YOUR DAUGHTER! PERIOD! I APPRECIATE YOU BOTH, BOUNDARIES ARE NEEDED FROM YOU BOTH TO THE BIRTH MOTHER! NOW!!!!!!! THE BIRTH MOTHER MADE HER CHOICE! PERIOD!!!!!!! LIVE WITH IT!
The fact she's concerned about her son thinking she loves the baby she carries more is all you need to hear. It shows her pure mothering heart & the love she has for her son!!❤❤❤ Many mothers that don't have trouble conceiving and carrying children worry about how their 1st child will feel when they have their second child or how they'll feel about the second. They aren't denying him the truth and most of all they're giving him unconditional love that's all that matters.❤❤❤ They shouldn't receive any hate for loving a child or wanting a baby of their own.
I love this couple and their journey. And I also love they have the birth mother involved. What a blessing for them all. ❤ And congratulations on the new blessing!

Anyone else come across this video when Ashley and her hubby naturally got pregnant and just birthed their sweet baby girl? So so happy for them.
Have u noticed tho kayla doesn't seem to be in their content anymore? Makes u wonder if she's got funny they didn't use her as a surrogate...
@tashaax1993xanimalloverx she isn't in their videos but she's still very much involved in their lives and they have mentioned this before
I am watching after they have given birth naturally. Watching this and seeing all they have been though makes me love them more! They are amazing!
I came myself mum i don't like mom for myself, and my kid's godmother was Mom. My kid wasn't confused.

I’m happy she is pregnant now!! Congratulations girl!!! 🎉
She is?
That is GREAT!!!!
May GOD;bless this baby on the way. And give her even more.
I was about to say the same thing ❤ I cried when they announced it because I am so happy for them.
That’s the awesome congrats to her.🙏🏽❤
@@codiemorgan9648Yes!!!!!!
I know I am so happy for her it's amazing how things happen when you let go and let God
It’s crazy how much he actually looks like his adoptive mommy❤️
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅 how can u lie like this?
Yes he ABSOLUTELY DOES look like her. Even their smiles are alike!!!!!❤
It’s crazy how much he does look like Ashley lol
I thought that myself he looks like the adoptive mom
That's true i feel he looks more like Ashley than even her bio mum
When he said given up out of Love not because he wasn’t wanted I got choked up 🥺🥹
Oh and I had another comment. The father son bond that Stephen and abriel has is so beautiful to watch. This man is so in love with his son and his son is so in love with his dad. They couldn't be any closer than if he was their biological son. Their relationship is so beautiful to watch. I just love it❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤
So true.
Ashley and Steven are the most realistic couple I've seen, they are selfless and able to look at the bigger picture and so is Makhaila, this is pure love
I love those two.
I’m happy she finally got her pregnancy.
Abe is well taken care of. He’s one lucky little boy. Best of both parents.
Watching this after she had her baby. They are a very sweet family and I love their story.
Me too 😂😂😂
Me too I am just seeing this...didn't know they were all on a talk show😮
I think this entire situation was divinely orchestrated. There’s no doubt how much love exists between Steven, Ashley, and MaKayla and they are meant to be in each other’s lives exactly as they are. No more and no less.
Ashley got to learn that she doesn’t have to carry a baby to be a mother, and now that she’s pregnant, she gets to experience both sides of motherhood…that’s beautiful, and really special.
MaKayla gets to be TT and watch Abriel become a big brother without the additional emotional/physical aspect of giving birth… i think this has all worked out for the betterment of everyone involved.
They are doing this the BEST WAY!!! That boy is going up knowing his birth mom and his adopted parents. What would be confusing is him growing up and recognizing he is different because of his skin color and then wondering why. Him knowing from birth that momma Kayla is his birth mom will be much more healing. Especially him knowing that they all have a relationship. That baby won the lottery!
He did WIN THE LOTTERY.
He has all these people loving him.
Abe is going to be a very important man one day.
Well said
100% agree. I love that he has Mama Makayla in his life. I think this is the healthiest way to be adopted. He will know he was given up out of love and be able to have a relationship with multiple adults who love him.
Totally agree! Abe has the best of both worlds. Be honest now so he can grow into the truth.
She just gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. Abriel is going to be an awesome big brother! 💙💞
When the dad 8:26 said we wanted him to know he was given up out of love not because he wasn’t wanted I almost cried ! So many children believe they are given up because they aren’t wanted when their parents just want the best lift for them ! I’m happy for them and the bio mom !
Absolutely because the ignorance on that fact is enormous most people always assume negative the moment they hear anyone has given a child up for adoption. When there are numerous reasons and it doesn't really matter to me especially when the child will at least get a chance at life with someone who does want children.
I think sometimes the adults are the ones that complicate things. This little boy was adopted by a set of parents who loves him, and I bloody well wish that every little girl or boy out in the world caught up in a bad, and unsafe environment would have a better chance of life with parents like these. God bless them, they’re trying to do the right thing all round.
I honestly think their relationship is beautiful and I think the way they are handling this causes less confusion
Agree 💯
I feel like like this is a new style blended family. It's beautiful that they all were able to process this in a way that's strictly for them and not for the world.
I love that they were honest with him from the jump. It hurts more later when you feel you were lied to your whole life. When he's an adult he can choose what to call her but children deserve the truth also.
As a adult adoptee I agree .
I really appreciate this man’s way of questioning. Appropriate but he gets right to the root of the issue instead of dancing around anything. He’s direct, but in a way to make sure he’s still being careful with the scenario.
Ashley you're making great open decisions. No lies. No apologies
You will survive.
I follow this beautiful family on TH-cam, and see nothing but pure LOVE!!! This little boy is well-adjusted, healthy, and HAPPY!!! I absolutely adore them!!
I had two moms and two fathers and I feel truly blessed, grateful and loved by them all ❤!
They're the perfect couple to adopt. I love this dynamic ❤
I totally understand and can relate. I wasn't raised with my parents but they were still in my life. They're trying to make it easier for their son. I commend them.
Abe calling his birth mom, Mama Kayla isn't a confusing thing. No different than having a step-parent from birth or very young.
I've always found it strange that people get angry when a child has MORE love than what is deemed socially acceptable?
Abe is such a sweet and extremely emotionally intelligent little boy and I believe his parents, his bio mother and sisters have taught him a great deal about the limitless power of Love.
Or even lookin at her as a GodMother..✨ because he did come thru her...☺️
I agree 💯
Exactly
@@Ellie5621Seeing to how Many people have have step parents, no it’s actually not a confusing concept to wrap your head around
So many adopted children are kept in the dark about their adoption and the effects are astronomical. My grandmothers best friend was given one of the dna test kits like 23 and me a few years back and at 74 years old she found out through that test that her mom and dad were not her biological parents. Her parents bio and adopted are all dead. All her siblings were later confirmed to be the biological children of the adopted parents. I mean the impact it had was huge. One day she’s the oldest of 9 siblings and within a month she learns she has no biological family. It’s heart wrenching. So the fact that McKayla is so involved is beautiful and I love the special friendship that they’ve created. McKayla is such an amazing woman and mother. I mean she’s so beautiful and selfless.
I've been around several children in foster care ,,,they don't care what color the families are ,,they just want love. I heard it with my own ears. Stop the racial barriers and think about the feelings of rejected children...
❤❤❤
Just seeing this. I never came across you guys on tiktok. But the Lord began sending me notifications. And this family makes me smile everytime I get one. Much love to this beautiful family🙏🙌✝️
The name isn’t confusing. It’s nice that he calls her Mama Kayla. This is one of the best public open adoptions that I’ve seen.
All a child need is love!! Love has no color! 😢
Amen! 🙌🏻
Exactly!
You are so right 😊
Oh yes say it again❤❤😊 👏🏾
Love has a color . N every color is supposed to love its own . Esau shouldnt be raising Jacob . Foh
We stand firmly behind Abriel's parents. They have done an outstanding job on raising a wonderful young boy to date. I'm so grateful to God for adding a new arrival to their troop ❤
So glad Ashley is pregnant.congrats to her and her husband. May God bless them and their baby.
God is good ❤
These parents are the best. Love them
This makes me sooo infuriated!! They are doing an amazing job and keeping the birth mother as part of his life . My children are not adopted but they look very much Filipino but they are also Swedish. People have said things to me even.. where did you buy your baby!! Who does that? God bless them✝️
Ppl are terrible the world has so much hate in it❤
Wowwww. Im so sorry that is horrible no one should be treated that way . Society needs to realize Words hurt !! I think ANY LOVING HOME IS BETTER THEN NONE ! I also think two loving homes are better then ONE BAD ONE ! Everyone deserves love and a loving home. I think even two same sex couples raising &adopting a child is ok ❤️as long as the child is loved, happy & secure why does it matter!? Every family is different now a-days 🤷🏽♀️ . I’m sending good vibes only to you my dear . Keep loving and raising YOUR CHILDREN!! YOUR FAMILY !!! God knows your heart ❤️never feel like you have to explain ANYTHING TO ANYONE !!! Love your life , continue to love & raise YOUR CHILDREN!!! 🥰Love , Light & Healing ❤️🙏🏽🇨🇦
People are just mean.
I've been following Ashley and Steven and their baby Ab and mama Kayla for a while now, absolutely love them. Beautiful family. Sometimes you have to keep your family out of your business.
My black cousin and his wife adopted 5 black brothers to keep them together. Right now the two oldest are in college. The rest are in high school. My black single female best friend who couldn’t get pregnant adopted two black boys and raised them from babies. They’re both teens now doing very well. I wish more people would adopt children of all races.
Ashley "im not ready to get pregnant any time soon"
God "ok NOW its time to get pregnant" 😂
@CuteCuteCute-02wow, it's always a wonder how nature works.
Right😂
Wait, isn’t it the Biological mother who is the surrogate?.. or Ashley actually had the baby, im confused
@@cindybesitos8933 0ashley had a baby herself months ago 1
@@cindybesitos8933 apshley gave birth herself months ago. They have a daughter now
I think that what they're doing is right. My older brother was adopted. My parents never told him because they did not want him to feel different than the other kids. He found out through the grapevine, & spiralled out of control. He's now deceased. The rejection was just to great, and the fact that my family lied to keep it hidden, trying to "Protect" him, just made him all the more angry. In the end always tell the truth....It's easier to remember. Telling lies leads to turmoil.
Wow. I m so sorry this happened in your family
So sry hun 😢 I do feel being open straight out the gate is more healthy but if u watch their channel the bio mom is over ALOT helps parent him etc be honest sure but their prob just need to be healthy boundaries set in place just for confusion it may cause as he grows etc and stuff he will hear from school or nowadays social media... I do agree I've known friends that we're adopted one parents was involved one where they weren't but as he gets older he's gonna wanna know why me bio mom has 3 other siblings he's def gonna ask tuff questions as he grows it's normal with adoption
I understand but I think other people meddling made things worse they probably knew when the right time would've been.🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Sorry for your loss
Oh no so sorry my condolences
I am African, from Zimbabwe. In our culture, your mother's sisters are your mums too. We literally call them mum. You might think this is confusing but trust me children know. Children understand more than you think they do. I appreciate they let her be involved it will be beneficial to him when he is older and easier for him to make sense of things.
I still watch them and she had her own bsby and carried it herself. God is good… wishing them all the best . It’s now Oct /2024 and I still follow them .. ❤️🙏🏽🇨🇦
Watching this after Ashley's pregnancy announcement brings me so much joy. God is so good! Abriel is such a lucky little boy. He gets love from everyone and now he's going to be the best big brother. Great advice on this episode!
I watch Steven and Ashley often on Utube and they are the sweetest, kindest BEST parents to their two children and such good people. They do not deserve ANY hate whatsoever.
This is the first time I'm not on the same page with Karamo. When you're growing up in that situation, you don't find it confusing until you're much older and by that time you can understand better. The important thing is that the children are surrounded by love. The same situation without care and love would be catastrophic but that's not the case in this instance.
I’m glad they had some of the audience share they’re thoughts, I think it actually helped
And now she just had her baby girl so exciting ❤
Ashley has such a good heart. God bless you and your family.
Everybody on that stage is wonderful except for that black mom who give a person that’s the weird one
I adopted my daughter from birth. I did an open adoption. I believe that every child should know where they came from. I got her as a newborn. She will be 22 next month. I taught her to call them big mama and big daddy.. out of respect. So I completely understand all of them !!!!
❤❤❤
I follow them on TH-cam, they love that little boy and thats all that matters! They're great parents!
I remember i even commented how He looks like his Adopted Mom, when they both smile❤❤❤❤
I just want to say that my girls called my mom "mom" because that's what I called her. It was never an issue or confusing. That relationship between mother (Ashley) and child is something so special as well as what his has with his birth mom. It's just different. I love how Ashley isn't threatened by that. It's because her love for her child is pure and selfless. I support this family and the decisions they are making for him. I can't wait to see how easily this 2nd baby comes into this family. It's a beautiful story ❤
I love them all and their story. May this family contiune to grow and flourish together. THE VILLAGE IS BEAUTIFUL
All I see here is pure love. God bless you all, and thanks for considering the little guy in all of these, and documenting it all.
I watch their channel, they treat him like gold! Abe is so smart
I agree. As a black woman I had wondered why they adopted a black child not with hate but curiosity. Then I want he'd their channel and grew so fond of the and baby Abriel. I don't think anyone would love that child more than his adoptive parents. They have made me consider adoption.
Abe, is so LOVED❤ he’s got a bond like no other with his dad. Makayla is selfless and an incredible young woman to make the to choice to bless this family with her precious gift. God had to set it up this way and people may never understand but it works for them. I wish every child that need a parent is blessed like Abe❤
All I see and hear is love bonded together for the sake of a child awesome
Honesty in adoption is never confusing. Dishonesty and omission is confusing. My mom has my son and he is 8 now and just found out I'm his birth mom and not his sister. That's confusing. Knowing from the beginning makes it just what it is and confusion is rarely an issue. My husband is also adopted and is very thankful his parents never told him anything other than the truth.
We are glad you never let the negativity overwhellm you, strong in love together
I've followed this family a long time and they're amazing parents with tons of love❤❤
Some people “get off” on misery for/towards others. This couple and many others are only doing what some are scared to do-love out loud❤
Ash and steve are the best parents to Abe ....and its crazy and super cute how Abe resembles his mom Ash and now their baby gal is a replica of the dad❤❤❤❤❤
People don’t give children enough credit for comprehension. He can understand the birth mom, adopted mom concept even at that early age.
I totally agree
Why put your child up for adoption? Just raise your child
People allow their babies to be adopted for various reasons (e.g. nintended pregnancy, etc).@@2worlds1hope
They are my favorite family on TH-cam as they are so genuine. The love that they pour into their beautiful bay son Abriel is incredible. This baby is so blessed and happy. Now Ashley is pregnant and I am so happy for them. Abriel loves his parents Ashley and Steven so much! They are the most amazing couple.
Abe’s mom is beautiful ♥️ this story is beautiful. I hope the hate stops. We all bleed the same. Humans are humans. Mom did this out of pure love.
This is such a complex and nuanced situation. I feel for the birth mother very much and i admire the adoptive parents. At some point lines are going to have to be set or they could create a lot of confusion for the child in effort of trying to be overly thoughtful. This is so tough because i know everyones heart is in great placem
Both of my biological parents were white. My father remarried a beautiful black woman when I was 3. My biological mother was very abusive and gave us up. My real dad and Mom, his wife who became my 100% mom when I was three have raised me. I have no contact with my biological mother and my mom is a black woman who is the best mom in the world! We had a lot of hate growing up (in the 70's and 80s) because people would say nasty things to my mom, assume she was the nanny or the maid and a lot of people said like how can that be your mom that's not your mom. But my mom is my best friend and we are very close! I'm 50 years old now and my older sister and my younger brothers and I are very close and bonded. We are the United Nations of love! Being raised by my mom was the best gift in my life and I am always grateful that I have her!
I adopted two of my nephews and I have never lied to them about who I am or kept them away from birth parents. When they grow up knowing the truth it’s not confusing for them….it will be their life any the only thing they know and because nobody has lied to them there will be no surprises and questions about who they are or who they came from.
The way they are raising that little boy,he is well mannered. I don't see him resenting them in the future. I watched a video where the mom instructed him not to eat the candies and he did even when the other kid beside him was.
I am adopted. It's complicated but you are his mother. I totally agree with the host. I was an open adoption in 1960. Very rare. My parents always told me I was adopted. My birth mother is awesome and she truly loved me, but she is my biological mother not my mother. I met my birthmother when I was 13 and then 32 and the at 45. We have developed a friendship but not a paternal relationship. I am grateful for her selfless sacrifice. Eva s you are the parents not the birthmother.
I agree she wasn’t ready to carry for them. I am glad she got to experience being pregnant
Karamo is making it more difficult than it really has to be. There are "step" families that have similar dynamics.
Great advice! Im happy to see, they are preparing for their biological child. Also, Mama Makelia is very attached and I agree her feelings are still very raw.. She definitely shouldn't be carrying another child for the family. I love them on social media and I wish them the best of luck and love with their soon to be new baby and extended family❤🙏
I TOTALLY AGREE WITH THE WAY ASHLEY AND STEVE DOES THINGS WITH BEING HONEST WITH THEIR BABY AND SHARING HIM WITH HIS BIOLOGICAL MOTHER AND I BELIEVE ASHLEY IS A SECURE WOMAN AND THATS WHY SHE IS UNBOTHERED. BECAUSE SHE KNOWS AS LONG AS SHE LOVES AB HE WILL LOVE SHARE THAT LOVE BACK
Loving the open, honest, and understandimg conversation happening here ... Its amazing to see theres anither way to make it work for everyone involved if possible ☺️☺️☺️ so heartwarming
I Completely Agree With The Baby Calling The Bio Mother Momma Kayla It's The Healthy Connection They ALL Need
This precious child is so very blessed to be so loved. Some grow up without ever knowing they were loved.❤
God saw much they cared so well for Abe, how much they had a passion for parenthood not even caring about the color of the baby and Father God blessed them with a daughter that is biologically theirs 💗
There are so open minded and have good intentions. Main concern is the mental well bing of the child.
I love all of them. Ashley and Steven are great parents, and Makayla is a beautiful person. I love their family dynamic.
I truly love this family, watching the special bond between his mom & Steven is so heart melting. As for Kayla, she did the most unselfish thing a parent could do. I can't imagine the emotions, as a mom of 3 girls your body knows you just gave birth. Your body is telling you time to wake up feed & change the baby, you miss the movements & the little hiccups ect. And for her willing to do this all over again for them shows just how much she loves the family she made for her son.. anyone with eyes and ears and can see the love they have for that beautiful boy is real.. I am glad she waited and they were able to conceive and have their own biological baby, because if anyone was ment to be parents it's them. I have 3 biracial daughters, 2 have their own kids now. My oldest is married to a black man, so their kids are more black with a sprinkle of white and my youngest had a 2 yr old and his daddy is white, so he's more white than black. But we don't see color in our family. I don't care what color a child is or who chooses to adopt them, as long as they are loved 100000% blood or not. Their are alot of kids in foster homes & group homes in the system who don't get kisses and stories and cuddles when they are sick or happy. That little man will never know that feeling.. from his bio mom & siblings to his adopted family as well.
Living in New Zealand 🇳🇿 The Evans Family with their beautiful baby boy. As a viewer from downunder
and 💙 observing The Love ORB The Evans have lovingly made for their boy. That's all their son sees feels
and lives. 💙 Being nourished in THE BEST WAY possible human kindness; mum&dad😊😊❤
They are doing a great job with that little boy. They have given him the life that most of us wish we had. He is very happy.
I have to say that I think that love from all the parties is great!! Ashley will get pregnant, sooner than she thinks, these people are all beautiful!! What they are doing is wonderful, If you live long enough you will learn.
It happened she’s pregnant 😊
She got pregnant 🎉
God is good congratulations Ashley and Steven
Ashley's mom was right - you should always try until you run out of options. I'm so glad she they had their biological baby. All in all, beautiful kind family. ❤️
Things have been quiet on the home front in regards to Mama Kayla since Ashley's miraculous pregnancy! Hmmmm? Because they have been amazing parents to their adoptive son and so generous in regards to this open adoption with his birth mother.I believe that is why God really blessed them abundantly with another child which Ashley gave birth too.
I think it still hurts her. You can tell she regrets her decision. She is happy he has a great family but her saying she wishes it was different is her saying she wishes she didn’t give him up
One of the most amazingly kind families I've ever come across. That child is very lucky
I don’t do TickTock, but I found you guys on TH-cam. Amazing couple and parents. Being Lebanese is why she is a great mom of any child of any ethnicity. 💚👊🏾
Im so happy that his birth mom is in his life ... she loves him so much still ❤
I remember in Social Work school we learned about adoption, foster, etc. A lot of people choose international adoption because for whatever reason, they don't want to deal with a birth family. I think it takes a lot of humility to put tbe child first
I ❤ that family. So sweet and open.
The adopted mom resembles that child as if she gave birth
I think everyone needs to let them do what is best for their family. It works for them and that is all that matters. I think it is great because their son will never question his background. He will grow up aware and won't have the major breakdown that most adopted kids have once they find out that they are adopted.
I started following them on YT but didn't know their story. It's nice they got to shut the haters down. Happy for them ❤
BEAUTIFUL PARENTS WITH SO MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT FOR THEIR SON!
THANK YOU!
FOR ME, YOU BOTH ARE THE HANDS ON PARENTS.
NOW!
BEING PARENTS OF TWO BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN, YOUR SON AND YOUR DAUGHTER! PERIOD!
I APPRECIATE YOU BOTH, BOUNDARIES ARE NEEDED FROM YOU BOTH TO THE BIRTH MOTHER!
NOW!!!!!!!
THE BIRTH MOTHER MADE HER CHOICE!
PERIOD!!!!!!!
LIVE WITH IT!
This is an amazing story about true love, don't know why they are being attack, they should be applauded for demonstrating such unity❤ my best show.
The fact she's concerned about her son thinking she loves the baby she carries more is all you need to hear. It shows her pure mothering heart & the love she has for her son!!❤❤❤
Many mothers that don't have trouble conceiving and carrying children worry about how their 1st child will feel when they have their second child or how they'll feel about the second.
They aren't denying him the truth and most of all they're giving him unconditional love that's all that matters.❤❤❤ They shouldn't receive any hate for loving a child or wanting a baby of their own.
I love this couple and their journey. And I also love they have the birth mother involved. What a blessing for them all. ❤ And congratulations on the new blessing!
I love this family. I also love how they love their son. Blessings their way.
