  1. Oh heyyyyyy my sugahhhh 💞💞💞💞💖

  2. Not crying, just got somethin in both my eyes. 🥺

  3. I also recently saw a video of a lady calling a different lady at like 2 AM to tell her that a baby was dropped off in the box that she had donated the money to build. it was like 10 or 15 grand she had donated. I wonder if it was the same baby.

  4. Back at it again with another one.

  5. Awwwwww, I just love stories like this!

  6. What is a safe haven box? Is it a real box?

  7. Congratulations to this beautiful family Yippeeeeee

  8. so a rich white family was able to adopt how cute just not from foster care that is huh

  9. Why anonymous? Something smell like a fish but it might not be fishy

  10. It’s better to take care of an already existing life than to bring another one into the world anyhow.

  11. 🥹🥹🥹♥️♥️♥️

  12. It's truly wonderful to hear this touching and lifesaving story. Congratulations to the firefighter and his wife for opening up their heart to this precious little one. In addition, my thoughts go out to the birth mom for placing her baby girl into safe hands.

  13. She was meant for them ❤

  14. A "Safe Haven Baby Box"… holy cow…

  15. They were always meant to be her parents. There is no doubt about that. He was always meant to be a firefighter so he could find her and be her father. Life always comes full circle and it is beautiful the way it works out for some people. ❤

  16. Thanks NBC for sharing this story, we need to let women know this is a viable option vs abortion (up to birth) l’m sure there are So many couples struggling to conceive would love to adopt. ❤️‍🔥🥹🙏🏼

  17. Amen amen now I want a hundred beautiful little king’s and prophets and little queens 🙏🏽👑

  18. Look at that red hair.. HOW ADORABLE ❤❤

  19. That's beautiful..

  20. That's great news but what about all the other people that wanted a child they didn't get first chance. …

  21. Americans make anything positive. abandoning a baby is a beautiful story 😂

  22. Use protection at first place rather throwing away own body part like this.

  23. God delivered that baby personally to that man and his wife ❤

  24. God sent them their baby 😭❤️

  25. If ive found her..i will try to make her mine too..she is so adorable💖✨

  26. This is why I get so upset with women who throw their babies away in trash cans. People out there want these babies, I'm so glad the bio mom did what is right and this family got their baby!

  27. Although I didn’t find a baby. I scooped up a little six month stray poodle mix from a busy street. The moment he ran to me and picked him in my arms. I was madly in love. He is the love of my life now. What a beautiful little baby girl she is ❤ And a testament to the power of answered prayers.
