    • @mollymarrs
      @mollymarrs  9 месяцев назад +2

      It was an opportunity to share insight with a man who has a pure heart of gold. It takes a very “special” person to adopt someone who doesn’t look like you & still treat them as their own. Yes, he’s not my biological father. But he’s way better than any father I could’ve had.
      the older I get the more I truly realize how fortunate I am. I personally know many people whose fathers want absolutely nothing to do with their own children.… that to me is unfathomably. So yea I decided to highlight a man who truly values family & faith which is rare to find nowadays
      it may be weird as a spectator looking in. But thats the entire point of my channel. Beginning this new self discovery journey with the most unique upbringing story

    I'm glad this has worked out but the way it began is just appalling. Stop telling yourself that your desires are god's wishes. There is an enormous line of people (Christians and atheists and everything else) waiting to adopt. It is not altruistic, it is your desire to have a child just like people desire to have a child the usual way.

    • @mollymarrs
