Every child removed from their homes and birth parents experiences some traumatic circumstances. All children want and deserve to be in a place and with someone who will care for and love them. Love, safety and security shouldn’t be too much to ask for, especially for a child.
In a clip posted on YouTube, 6-year-old Harvey was over the moon after learning that he had found himself a forever family and home. He was literally jumping for joy at the news.
The video begins with the little guy waiting on a plastic chair on a porch. Seconds into the clip, a female voice tells Harvey they have something they must tell him. The woman tells the 6-year-old; “There’s something special that happened yesterday. Do you know what might have happened?”
Harvey has no idea.
The person holding the camera then pans to the right and reveals a man standing with a board with Harvey’s name. However, the man points to two words, “forever ours.”
Harvey is still a little confused about the meaning of those words. Thats when the man lets the little guy in on the big news. “How about Harvey is officially adopted?” the man asks.
Harvey sits up and lets out an audible gasp after learning he has an adoptive mother and father.
He’s still unsure and proceeds to ask if what he has heard is correct. “I’m adopted?” Harvey asks, “I’m adopted right now?” He asks, “I’m going to stay here?”
Once his questions are answered, and he understands he does not have to leave, the little guy jumps for joy.
The video ends with Harvey approaching the woman behind the camera for a hug.
