Tears started flowing as a stepdad asked his stepson a question he’ll never forget. The question turned into an unexpectedly sweet and heartwarming moment between the stepfather and his stepson. Watch the short but moving clip to hear what the stepfather asked that moved his young stepson to tears.
Children are a gift from the good Lord and should be treated as such. They are, without a doubt, an absolute blessing, arguably life’s biggest. Those youngsters add an immeasurable amount of happiness and joy to every household.
However, sadly, many children today need good, loving homes, places where they feel safe and protected. Every child deserves to be somewhere with people who will treat them as the blessing they are, showing them unconditional love and support. Because of this incredible need, adoption is so important and crucial.
In a clip posted on YouTube, viewers get to witness a special moment between a stepfather and his stepson. The short video starts with the young man sitting at his desk, preoccupied with something on the computer. The stepfather, about to ask the child a simple but life-changing question, enters the room.
“Can I ask you a question?” the stepfather asks. “You know, I love you like my son, right? How do you feel if I adopted you?”
The camera closes in on the young man’s face. Clearly, he is completely taken aback and moved by his stepfather's question. He is stunned and remains silent for several moments, unsure of what to say or how to react.
“For real?” the young man asks several times.
The youngster quickly steps away from his computer and embraces his stepfather. While the two hug, the stepfather asks, “Would you like that?” From the sound of the child’s “Yeah,” it’s evident that the young man has been moved to tears.
What a heartwarming and beautiful moment!
