How honoured he must have felt when AJ asked him to be his god father
Yes and I love that he was emotional ❤. Trying so hard not to cry
Captain Hill is so genuinely touched by AJ's request to be his Godfather! He's so what our society needs!
Captain Hill should train cops around the country how to respectfully treat people with mental health issues.
What a great idea!
I agree 💯👍 sis
I pray that will happen.
You said it. Just put that Training Video 📹 out worldwide 🌎.
I agree. But by the time you join the P.D. one shouldn’t t have to be “trained” to treat anyone decently. That’s the problem. The ones who do are duty bound. The ones who don’t are thugs with badges.
Why can't the world be like Captain Hill and AJ?
It can be. Start with the person you look at in the mirror each day. I do an affirmation to myself every day to be the best person I can and be kimd to those that are less fortunate than myself.
@@darrenheadrick3669 he was like Kelly move over I want him now
There are probably a whole lot more - just doesn't usually fit the narrative so you won't hear about them
@@CH-be4oc or it's just they're to busy assaulting or killing ppl with disabilities
💯 million percent PURE TRUTH 🙏 The world would be such a better place!!! SPREAD LOVE,JOY,KINDNESS AND LOVE 💞🤗🙏 LIFT EACH OTHER UP WHICH HELPS US ALL GET THROUGH THIS DIFFICULT WORLD WE ARE LIVING IN!! LIFE CAN BE BEAUTIFUL WITH LOT'S OF WONDERFUL MOMENTS AND LOVE AND NEW FRIEND'S THAT CAN BECOME MORE LIKE FAMILY THAN ACTUAL FAMILY!!
Captain Hill had me bawling. What a special bond he has with AJ. We have so many angels on Earth, yet we don't see their wings.
May I use your your latter sentence as a tattoo quote?, because god damn not enough people realize this. And I need as many people to know that as possible in the world we live in now. We may not all have wings now, but with each day we can grow them. Love
Amen.
Made me cry. That drawing of Kelly’s dog is amazing!
This is the 1st time I watched it and I'm getting a cleanup right now I understand crap
He is very skilled! I have autism as well plus I draw too!!
That police officer seems so emotional he had to stop speaking many times.
What a wonderful human bring.
I thought the same thing
It was amazing! 😊
Capt Hill says he takes his Godfather roll serious, it shows by the way he talks about their relationship. His big sister seems to love him too 🥰🥰🥰
I just lost it when the officer read his letter. Wow, just beautiful!!
Me too sis 🌹😭😭😭🙏🙏
Me too
Same!!!!!!!!!
Me too, I have autism as well so this really touched me 😊
The way AJ looks at Captain Hill, just 🥰
I personally know Kanesha and AJ and I’m so proud of how AJ had grown!!!
Mom and child both seem like they would be such a joy to have in a person's life.
@@stephanietip yes, they do... amazing... AJ is so sweet.
Such a sweet boy and his mother is a sweet lady.
That kid should keep doing art, that was great
AJ on Kelly's dog drawing, this child did not get enough credit. The artwork was fantastic.
Tissue alert! I love Kelly Clarkson! She is such a gift to the world.Thank you.
Deborah Duffel I agree 💯 Kelly Clarkson is an example of how we treat others humanely, she is one of my favorite people ❤️🙏🏽
Where's the onions 🧅😭😭😭
I hope my child gets the support he needs when older. Everyone loves him now, but I pray it stays that way. He gonna be a big guy too.
@Esha Renee Sincere best wishes to your son and you. A few years ago via "accidental text" a stranger told me You got this when I needed to hear it and I still think about it to this day. So passing that along: You've got this, Mom ♥
💕💞💕💞
People will FEEL his gentle heart and he’ll find those friends and eventually that perfect wife.
That cop has a heart! And that's very rare! AJ will never forget this awesome experience!
Absolutley heart warming story--I never had a Dad in my life and I can imagine this young boys heart is filled 😍 Kelly have to say yo LOOKIN GOOD GIRL
I never knew my dad as well he left me when I was only 2 years old😮😮 but now I am 43 years old and still miss a father figure ❤️
AJ already taking his little bro role seriously with annoying his god sister by hiding stuff in her room hahahah . Love this !!!!made me cry!!
The vision of this wonderful mom to find a POSITIVE way to prevent her son being poisoned by ugly stereotypes. This is a model for all parents. I love how it has blossomed into this wonderful thing.
The first time I travelled to the USA in 2019, I was almost kidnapped but out of all that trauma I met a family with a little boy who is autistic. We became very close because I had to stay with them for a week. His mom would leave him with me to be my comfort during the days and I as a teacher would give him lessons for fun. Fast forward to present day, he is now 12 years old. We talk daily on the phone. Although his speech is not clear, I fully understand him. I invited him to spend the holidays with me in beautiful Jamaica. He loves the beach and the Jamaican treats. He enjoys running outdoors and learning the Jamaican Creole. He said to me yesterday, "auntie, I want to stay here". Lol. It is such a joy to have him here. Sometimes traumatic events can bring people together. That is my nephew.
He really loves little AJ. This is a blessing to watch.
I love this so much. Capt. Hill's humanity and humbling personality is wonderful. I applaud Kenisha for taking the steps to introduce her son and the police to one another and have a dialogue about the possible behaviors of someone with autism. It looks like AJ is thriving and a true bond has been built. I ❤❤it!!
Yes she did the right thing. Great thinking. I would hate to think he got into any problems and the officers was aware of his condition and he got the worse of it.. all officers ain't their own unqualified psychologists, can't always understand situations and make the best and correct decisions.. it's not only about arresting folks, it's about being able to evaluate a situation...
The captain, mom & AJ should do a circuit of talks to the schools, policemen,… motivational speeches,…
Dear GOD. This is the way it’s supposed to be. Please.
God already knows this. It is the humans who have stubborn and sinful and wicked hearts that will put up some resistance. God didn't just put every man, woman and child down here to go at this life alone. We are to be a community network of people helping each other out.
Now why can't we have this a hole lot more! We need this all young men need someone in their life who cares ty
Amen
Because it would fall through the hole.
What we could use is so dirt to fill that hole and then start working on a whole lot more of this. Just kidding, I do agree with you 100% and I start with myself. I hope this comment finds you, your family and loved ones safe and in good health.
@@darrenheadrick3669 correct you have to start with yourself, don't look at anyone else...
This is a beautiful relationship. I love everything about it
How AJ's face lights up when he sees his besty.😭☺️best.
This human is everyone's Godfather.
Capt. Hill has deep love for AJ! I love this
I wish you would have blessed the police officer and his family with a trip to Universal Orlando as well.
I don't believe they are allowed to accept gifts. It's possible it may depend on the state or individual department.
@@K9Crazy good point
I imagine Capt. Hill went with them anyway!
Kelly probably wanted to but couldn't. I saw on the Ellen Degeneres show on a few other occasions she told the audience that law enforcement and government workers are not allowed to accept gifts/money. Later, Ellen found a loophole and she said she can give gifts to the officer's girlfriend or wife who does not work for law enforcement.
We need more stories like these!! I love it
Be your own story. Do with yourself what this captain did for the boy and his mother.
These are the stories I love to hear. I love, love, love this!! Thank you, Kanesha for doing what you needed to do to protect the future of your baby! Captain Hill, thank you for looking beyond the surface and welcoming AJ into not only your world, but your families world. I pray that this bond remains solid forever. What a wonderful experience for AJ. Thank you for sharing this ❤
I’m a Autism Mom. Love this story!
My 14 year old nephew has autism. So I understand
AJ you are an Artist❣️❣️❣️ that drawing of Kelly’s dog is AAAMAAAZING❣️🙌❣️
Captain Hill you’re so AAAWESOME❣️❣️❣️ Beautiful❣️ Heart & Soul❣️😁
Yeah yeah. True❤❤❤
I am an artist with autism as well, AJ is an amazing artist too! I see a lot of potential in him! Captain Hill thanks so much what did for that boy, you are a true inspiration and I really admire you!
Lovely man..May God bless and keep him everything he put his uniform on...very decent person he is.
Can't stop crying tears of happiness!!! Please please let's see more of this EVERYDAY!!!!
It's awesome that AJ and Captain Hill are so close. I pray they're friends/family forever.
Doesn't matter how old, strong or wise a human being could be when a child offers a hug and ask for us to be there for them that's something the heart takes up to the last beat. What a beautiful story. The mother is a very kind and smart lady truly concern for her child life to turn out great!! ☝🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️
Hello Angela
How are you doing?
A mom of an autistic child is more in tune with that child's needs, I think. I believe this after being a pretty good mom myself and now watching what an incredible mom my daughter is to her autistic son. Everything is about him and whats best for him. There is no what can I do for me. I babysit him once a week to give her and her husband some free time. He's my precious little one and l love him so much though he does wear this old woman out. This mom is a great mom, hands down.💖💖💖💖
@@thompsonsmith7798 doing well, I'm sorry didn't see this message before. Hope that you are doing great! 🙏🏻
@@angelalandestoy4890 I'm good thanks for asking
Where are you texting from if I may ask?
Captain hill is an angel, glad Aj mom took the initiative to let people know about his condition before something negative had happened to him.. that was so brilliant. He's a handsome guy, looks so happy now that he's met his godfather... he's a smart little guy. I'm so happy for him, he got his bike, and he's more open to socializing and his school work improved.
God bless you captain hill and keep you allll safe in Jesus name with Thanksgiving amen 🙏..
AJ is going to be a boss, what he may not conquer academically he sure will skilfully. Can see he's got skill..
God gave everyone a talent, we just gotta identify it, and use it to the best of our ability.. wish I could give him a great bug hug 🤗 and captain hill, as well for his kindness and loving caring heart ❤💙💜💖💗💘❤ the good you do will be returned to you and your daughter 70 tines 7 , when you're not even looking for it.. brought tears of joy to my heart.. just love little AJ.
This officer understands the importance of community. Captain Hill is not obligated to do anything for this child, but his humanity is to be desired. Thank you for all you do Captain Hill!
This made my WHole day!!! No every police officer on the force is bad. THere are so many officers that give their lives daily to serve. We don't pay them enough!!!
It's so beautiful to see how much captain Hill cares about him and that he has helped him to come out of his shell
Hello Dear
How are you doing today?
He’s a Godsend ✝️🙏🏾💪♥️♥️✨✨✨ a light in this sometimes dark world we live in.
ALL children need positive influences/role models/mentors in their lives. I am so thankful that AJ found his. I tell everyone that it is incredibly easy to volunteer, with youth, on a weekly basis - Cub Scouts/Brownies, Sunday School/Children's Church, most Elementary Schools have Volunteer/Mentoring programs, Children's Hospitals need Volunteers, Little League/Pee-Wee - type Sports, etc, etc, etc. Adults just need to ask, commit, and put the Children's Needs first...these are some of the ways I have acquired so many around-the-way-adopted-half-stepchildren, through the last 30+ years.
Thank you, Kelly, for the update and for, hopefully, inspiring more grown-ups to "jump in" to help 'our' children.
It truly takes a village!
Captain Hill is a blessing and I wish he would be able to train police officers around the country. The humanity he shows is so needed in law enforcement. He is one of the few officers that seems to believe in treating folks like human beings. At a time in our country when we often see police abusing their power, I pray that his community realizes how fortunate they are to have him 🙏🏽
Happy Tears 🥹 This is wonderful ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
May God bless that officer
That's what's a real police officer does. He is a great example of community and heart felt caring for people. My heart is very happy. God please bless this officer and his family.
AJ, his mom, and Captin Hill are all rockstars in my opinion. 💙💙💙😊😊😊
OHMYGOD I am so glad #KellyClarksonShow is doing updates from past guest. Love this so much.
Hello Angela
How are you doing today?
Bravo to Captain Hill!!!! Now, there’s one amazing police officer and god- parent. This innocent kid will grow up to be one great man- surrounded by love.

What a beautiful story of Love and Friendship ❤ and can we just pause for a minute to acknowledge AJ’s incredible artistic talent!? The dog he drew for Kelly was awesome!
AJ has such a heavy voice! A cutie
God gave AJ a gift of drawing...That will be his expression to the world....Go AJ...KEEP SHINING🥰🥰
Oh my god Captain Hill seems amazing. It is so sweet to see their relationship!

The world would be a better place if we could love and care about each other like they do. God Bless there families 😇🙏😁
The bond between these two almost choked me up 😢 .
God bless you Captain Hill and your family may God continue to use you and bless you for God's glory to help all children of the world.
This brought tears to my eyes. This a blessing. May God continue to bless both of them. He is real hero..

God sees all that you’re doing.🌹 Thank you for your service and May God continue to protect you and your entire household with love, joy, piece, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self control.

This is the type of kindness the world needs.
AJ is such a handsome boy. 💜
Oh man why am crying😭😭 I just watched the clip such a touching story♥️😍❤️
Captain had me all in tears😭😭😭 This love for others❤❤❤

He loves him.
💕💞😭
Tears just rolling down my face! Family!
I remember as a kid that our school had us sign up for PenPals over in Asia somewhere, I can't remember where it was now. But it was amazing. Every week we would write letters to our PenPals as part of our lessons. It was really exciting and made us want to learn :-)
Captain Hill is a true man and true definition of protect and serve no matter what
There's really no words for these wonderful people and their extraordinary relationship!
God's Blessings and Prayers to everyone! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🤍🤎🖤 Ain't love grand! 💛🧡❤😍
Couldn’t stop crying 😭 watching this 🥰🥰🥰
Me too
The love in the cop's eyes..ohh my 🥺🥰
Captain Hill you are heaven sent. We love your heart and soul and may God bless you beyond what you could imagine
Look at the melanin..beautiful
God bless
Right?...I was wondering how we all were gonna just go ahead and just not talk about that....just wanted to agree with all the other great and positive comments BUT to also register that mama bear is stunning😍 Simply, absolutely
B.E.A.U.T.I.F.F.U.L.❤
Kudos to Mom for connecting their lives. What an amazing story. Thanks Kelly!
And this beautiful journey started because a wonderful mother decided she didn't want her son to be afraid of cops, and off they went and beyond their wildest dreams, met the best cop ever. Love all round is a win, win, win.
God bless you all and keep you surrounded in His grace and protection always. ❤🎉❤
Excellent initiative-officers adapting a child from the local neighbor. The tour of the facility was a great idea. Blessings continuously to the mother, son and godfather.
That beautiful police officer is so amazing!!!! I love the joy that they bring to both lives. God bless both of these families with favor, blessings, and so much love!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
He is f****** talented!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Look at the dog drawing!!!!!
Humanity at its finest...This definitely a rewarding relationship for AJ as much as it's for Captain Hill, as you see that he chocked up and tried to hold back tears...
I saw this story before this show… thank you so much to this beautiful officer and I love the relationship between this officer and this family 😘😘
This has me in tears..it is so beautiful to see. 🙏🙏🙏❤
Tears today.... it’s been an emotional week for me with the passing of my grandfather, and I needed some tears of joy. This is beautiful.
I’m praying for you… grandparents and special, and all but one of mine are gone. I’m hoping you get some peace in knowing that his time on Earth was special. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 🤗
I'm crying like a Baby. This is so Awesome. This goes to show that there are Outstanding Cops still in the World. AJ. You are Awesome. God Bless You 🙏
OMG who’s crying 😢 🥹😫 meeeee. God bless the cop 👮🏻♂️ and lady and her son. Beautiful people.❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹♥️♥️♥️✨✨✨🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Beautiful story! Now he has the kind of mentality and personality of what police should have. These stories should be on the news! There are many who are great for the job and I hope they get to be shown more.
That 🐶 pic is crazy though!!!! 🖤 Momma got her a winner! Autistic kids use a different part of their minds that I could never imagine...their minds are truly remarkable.
A wonderful story that brought more than just a few tears to my eyes! Thanks!
This is so heartwarming ❤
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
Captain Hill is a superhero.I love this story..
