It’s easy to think negatively when you didn’t grow up in a household with two dads, a lot of us didn’t. But look how many of us grew up in a house with a mom and dad and didn’t get the love, or attention we needed… I’m just happy there is a child out here that’s getting the love and care she needs 💖 Two parents that are willing to do anything for their baby girl! ❤❤❤

Yo no tuve la atención necesaria. Pero tengo una hermosa familia y tengo mucho amor por mis hijos y mi esposo nadie se tuerce si no recibís amor. Estos son dos hombre que eligieron vivir diferente no es normal pero es sus vida yo no juzgo. Pero Dios pone las cosas en su lugar.
She actually looks like a perfect blend between the two of you; this had me crying happy tears congratulations on the adoption

I only came across this video when I typed in adoption day. All I see are two loving parents and a child that needed a home. Two very loving individuals opened up their hearts and their home . Whether it be two women, two men, or a male and a female it doesn't matter. As long as the child is loved and nurtured. Clearly your daughter is such! From somebody who was adopted, thank you for giving her a home. Thank you for loving her.

Gosh, this one broke my heart. I can’t imagine what Kenzie went through in her young life. She is certainly a strong young lady but no child should ever have to suffer abuse. It’s evident that she is now very much loved and cared for and living a happy life. She has the most beautiful smile ever.❤

The way ya'll mention her beauty then follow with how she's going to do amazing things and her organizational skills. THIS IS PARENTING RIGHT! I don't GAF the make up of what makes "parents" or "guardians" so long as the child is loved, shown what love means and has a life similar to what we see here.

What an intimate glimpse into the lives of a fabulous family that was destined from the start. It was evident in the first few photos of Diddy with Kenzie as a little one, that you two would be inseparable. I could not be happier for your family, and for the happy milestone of Kenzies adoption! Y’all share so much love, laughter, personality, patience and fun!

Hi!! Aww thank you SO much!!! Made my day reading such a sweet comment 😭❤️
This was beautiful! I’m so glad I found you, you’re such a fun family. You can tell you all love each other and are definitely best friends too. My mom is my best friend and as much as people say your parents shouldn’t be your friends, I have to strongly disagree. Kenzie is going to be able to come to you with everything as she grows up and even when she’s an adult. She won’t be sneaking out doing things, because she has a home environment where she’s allowed to be herself and express herself. I’m pansexual and never had to come out of any closet, as my mom is a strong ally and I grew up seeing all kinds of people. She would ask if I liked any boys OR girls my entire life and always said she hoped I found a good husband or wife someday. When I got a girlfriend I just told her “mom I’m dating this really cute girl” and my sexuality was NEVER discussed. Because to her it really doesn’t matter at all. People ask me how I came out all the time, as I’ve been out since childhood, but I can’t answer that question and I’m actually grateful for it? Sorry for ranting, but you two just remind me of my mom and she’s a star, so it’s beautiful to see her grow up in such a beautiful environment. Thanks for sharing your story, earned another sub. 🥰❤️

Right. I ever so wish I had 2 dads or 2 moms even
I was adopted by two gay dads in 2001 and I’m now 25 years old. I’ve played sports my whole life and served in the military. The most common misconception when you have two fathers is that they’re going to raise you to be feminine. This is not true. Two gay fathers at the end of the day are still men. It might be different with girls but as a man, in my experience, I had been raised to be a mans man. As i talk to my fathers today as an adult, they always seem to be blind to the fact that they are men just like any other man and that that being raised by two gay dads is no different than being raised by two straight ones.

Aww I adore you both. Thank you for such a sweet comment 🥹❤️❤️❤️ You both are amazing. We appreciate the love ❤️
Yours and kenzies relationship is the absolute best. You’s have an amazing friendship which makes up for most of a relationship with a child in my opinion. The fact you’s can be so sarcastic, funny honest and open with eachother is amazing. She is so lucky to have you take care of her along with her bio dad. You’re absolutely fabulous. In All ways! Wish you guys nothing but love, luck and happiness!!!

So sweet 🥹 thank you so so much ❤️❤️
Thank you for this. Especially when people are so unknowledgeable about what makes a family. I have seen both ways being positive but also negative. I love the positivity in families. Because blood doesn't always make a family. A family is full of love, nurturing and kindness as well as teaching and belonging. I'm so happy for your family and am excited to see what's next.

If possible I wish for all families to have a set of parents it’s not the same growing up in a single parent home. Coming from one I know the impact it has on children. I love how many different ways a two parent home can be and this is a perfect example.
