Dearest Olivia

- One year ago, we met our daughter on this day. It has been an amazing year seeing Olivia change from a serious, cautious girl to one that is constantly smiling, singing and dancing all the time.
It has also been one of my hardest years, watching one of my best friends, Antonette struggle with cancer. When we returned from China, even among her battle with stage 4 cancer- she asked to make this adoption video for Olivia. Antonette wanted the video to be a story that Olivia could watch and remember just how much she was loved and anticipated. This also became my last and most precious gift from my dear friend.
Thank you Eric for helping her finish this video after she went to heaven.
I have watched hundreds of these Chinese adoption videos. I’ve just found yours. What a miracle! I thought I’d never meet adoptive parents more interested in the baby than in shoving a camera in her face for a Kodak moment. You are the parents everybody would wish for!
This was the sweetest video I've seen so far! I love how you eased into it and played with her for a long time first before you picked her up. It breaks my heart when I see people grabbing the kids and kissing them right away. It seems so intrusive and scary.
At the finding spot, when dad was talking to Olivia - just heartbreaking yet joyous. God bless you and your precious babies. Never alone, never again.
That was a great video. You are the perfect family for Olivia. Culturally there was an immediate bond. What a perfect family. You are all beautiful. I hope your family is doing well . I wish you the best life has to offer you. God Bless. ❤️❤️🙏
Amazing how little Olivia just fit in so perfectly. Lovely documentary ❤
Oh what a beautiful family you have made !!! Love the stickers - universal fun for little ones ! God Bless your precious family.
This is an excellent video. I hope today your family is as beautiful as it was when you adopted perfect little Olivia. What a great fit. God bless your family.
Wow - new world-record set for 'Bonding' - AND with no tears !. Lovely video, tho condolences for Antoinette xx
I've watched a lot of CZcams adoption videos because they're always so heartwarming and even from a distance (Northern- NYS)....I can feel the love and commitment they send out. But, when I watched yours, there was just something extra involved.....I found myself smiling along with your happiness and I honestly got choked up when you went to Olivias' finding place. I wish you and your beautiful family all good things. It's very early in the morning here but your your joy and devotion to your family, made my day. Thank you for sharing.
I just love watching all those beautiful babies going to loving homes.But there is a little girl from Korea whose adopted mother name was Sara or maybe the Little girl she was adorable.The Little one was taken care of for 14 months by foster mother,this little one danced and modeled her dress. Ihave not been able to find any more information she was a little doll!
Beautiful family photo at the end. God bless !!!
I'm so sorry for the loss of your good friend. This video was an amazing gift from her. Your daughter will treasure it. Your family is lovely.
you make family a wonderful thing. God is shining through.
Beautiful adoption video! You were so thoughtful to describe the many places that were important in her younger life. Congratulations and best wishes to all of your family. You are all just lovely!
What a beautiful story. Your love for your daughter shines through.
Thanks for adopting one child such a wonderful thing . Also thank you to all those nannies who are looking after all those children and I think it must be very hard to let them go away.
Olivia is so blessed to have you as her parents. I really appreciate what you have done and it's incredible to see how loving and caring you both are. Please keep these videos as they will be invaluable to Olivia.
Congratulations! You guys are wonderful and such an inspiration! Please love Olivia with all your heart and may God always bless your family with good health and happiness!!
It is amazing to see people of color adopting a child of color. The gift of culture and language that you can give her is tantamount.
You have a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful family! I’ve cried so many happy tears throughout this video. May you all have love and joy always. x
Wonderful story and wonderful persons.... A sweet tribute to Antonette! All the best to you, mam daddy and Olivia!
Amazing video and a great family! All three of your kids are absolutely adorable! I wish you all nothing but the best :)
Beautiful video, beautiful child, beautiful family ! My sincerest condolences to you on the loss of Antoinette - take heart, a dear friend's spirit remains with you always xx

What a Beautiful Video ……. This actually brought Tears to my eyes.

Beautiful Olivia! Beautiful family!
Such a beautiful family and I am proud to see that your whole family are all good Asian Americans. America needs more people from Asia because they all become good and proud citizens. It felt good to see this video and I be willing to bet that all your children will do well in life and be successful from New Jersey
What a great memory to leave your daughter!

What a beautiful family♥️
Beautiful family, good bless you 🙏
So fabulous. !!!❤️🤗❤️
Maravillosa la forma que tuvieron los nuevos papás de conectar y ganarse la confianza de la preciosa bebé ❤️❤️❤️
no hay nadie que hable el español
Thanks for sharing. Looks like everybody body had an instant connection. I don't see anymore follow ups, I hope everything is going well.
Would love to see an update on Olivia and your family.
So great that you were able to communicate with Olivia straight away in her own language
I loved that most❤️
@@connieedwards4257 me too!! I wish more parents would spend the time getting to know their child’s native language. Even if it is the basics.. so many have a wait of years.. I’m sure being able to understand your new parents would be soothing to the babies
Beyond beautiful!
Its great they take time with her so she can trust them instead of grabbing her picking her up and kissing her
Thanks for that gift and may the great lord of spirits, most high, king of glory bless u abundantly
That place has totally transformed just like many places in China.
she is beautiful
Such a sweet video. Made me cry with joy. So happy for you all
This video is sooooo sweet

Oh, not yet. I’m still way too young (21) and single (really want to get married when I’m older). But when I’m older I will.
your kids are so cute.
Vogliate bene a questi bambini 😥😥🙎♀️✌✌
olivia non si aspettava d avere fratelli, quando la mamma la scia per abbracciare l'altra bimba è rimasta li ferma, confusa ed ha cominciato a piangere disperatamente. capisco che la mamma volesse salutare l'altra figlia, ma olivia è appena arrivata e non si aspettava questo, lasciarla li impalata povera creatura, fossi stata la mamma avrei continuato a tenerla in braccio pur salutando gli altri figli, lei ha bisogno di sicurezza e cosi si è sentita messa da parte
She is adorable. She was left behind by China’s terrible One Child policy. Her parents would have been fined or imprisoned.
Good lord that is a cute kid!
Maravilloso!!
Joey's gonna be a busy big brother

Its nice to take these kids and give them a good upbringing; but by the time there 17 or 18 they usually want their homeland.
So cute familly
Such a lovely family! Olivia is so precious! I ask out of pure curiosity. No I’ll will intended I assure you but why do they shave the little girls hair? I’ve often wondered about that.
In china,it is often thought that the child's hair will grow better after shaving the hair.

truly i tell you whatever you did for one of the least for these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.(Jesus)Mathew 25;40

Why did they shave her head?
How are you all now?
Dont you hate it when they dont give updates!
Ciao che bella bambina anche la famiglia bella anche altri due bambini sono belli tutti ciao
What I did not like was when you was greeting your other children in your home you left Olivia crying you just looked at her and ignored her she didn't know what was going on.
You gotta be kidding me ? 23 hours flight ? What can we do during those spit hours between those country? People must be exhausted,,, sitting in the plane seat the whole time...
