Daddy’s song for his little girls brings waterworks to the room

0

There wasn’t a dry eye in the room, what a sweet audition.

It’s been eleven long years but a surprise moment had Nick Edwards finding his confidence again after he took the stage at Britain’s Got Talent thanks to his two lovely daughters.

36-year-old Nick was more than shocked to see his daughters Savannah and Cali, three and four, brought on stage by his mother Tracey.

The three girls wanted him to get up and audition.
Edwards is from Doncaster, South Yorkshire, and he said he had “never been so scared” in his life before the performance. Thanks to his daughters, his dream of singing his own songs in public is back.

He told the judges that he had “lost a lot of confidence” in himself over the years. He only sings in the shower as a result.

But you have to hear this man sing!
Amanda Holden was nice enough to tell Nick he could go grab a glass of water to compose himself though.

Edwards did return with a guitar ready to sing. Even Simon was glad he returned. Nick sang a song he dedicates to his daughters since he says the song had become the “soundtrack of their life”.

He certainly can play that guitar.
But Nick’s singing pulled on everyone’s heartstrings especially judge Amanda Holden and host Declan Donnelly.

Simon Cowell went on to say, “It was so sweet, you have a lovely voice”. David Walliams confirmed he had “4004 yeses”, which included the audience.

 

 

Edwards shared that he had no idea about the set-up. All he knew was he was going out with his wife for the day since his sister-in-law gave them free tickets to Britain’s Got Talent.

A very thoughtful surprise.

So when Nick first saw his mother and daughters come on stage, he really assumed they were going to audition. Imagine his shock when they asked him to audition for the show.

Nick is an amazing musician and a fantastic singer.

A friend of his left a comment saying,
“Nick’s voice was like this even 10+ years ago. He was an excellent singer songwriter then too and had a lot of creative ambition when we talked about projects together. I never understood why he seemed to stop except for the occasional home video he shared. It’s amazing to see him back in his element again. Keep at it Nick! There’s so much creativity in you man! It doesn’t matter what comes from it. Just keep going and enjoy the process! So happy to see him back with a guitar on stage in front of a crowd.”

Hard to believe that behind that face is a voice the world needs to hear.

Savannah and Cali are super blessed to have Nick as their dad. He sings with so much love, you can tell he was thinking of his daughters the whole time up there on stage.

It’s safe to say he’s got his confidence back. We’re all looking forward to hearing more from Nick.

Parents Gifted with Rare Black-And-White Twins Get the Same Blessing 7 Years Later

0

The world is full of beautiful and wonderful things, some so astounding and unreal it can be hard to fathom. Sometimes, this beauty is in the form of a person, in this case, twins. And not just the regular kind, two sets of them! But, there is something incredibly special about these children.

Rare Black and White Twins
Alison Spooner and Dean Durrant are the proud parents of two sets of twins, and what makes them so unique is the fact that both sets, born seven years apart, are black and white. This makes their family the only one in existence with such an occurrence.

 

 


Dean, the father, is West Indian. His skin is dark and so is his hair. His partner, Alison, has white skin, blue eyes and red hair. In 2001, when their first set of twin girls was due, they expected mixed-race children. Instead, one baby, Lauren, was born with light skin like her mom, along with her red hair and blue eyes. Her twin sister, Hayleigh, looked like Dean.

Now, twins born different colors are not something new, although it is rare. According to reports citing a geneticist, the odds of twins being born biracial is about 1 in 500,000.

 

 

But, what makes this family even more special is that the exact thing happened when the couple had twins again in 2009. As you can imagine, the couple was astounded to have had this incredible occurrence yet again.

Lauren and Hayleigh
When they were 18, the older girls spoke about life as bi-racial twins. Of course, people do not believe that they are in fact what they say they are. The girls have said that people are shocked when they find out.

“Some people can be really rude. They’ll say, ‘You’re lying, you aren’t twins — prove it! So we’ll reel off the same address or pull our passports out. It’s nice to see the shock on people’s faces. When we went to college it was difficult because there were lots of groups of Asian, white and black kids.

“The black group were trying to integrate me and I was like, ‘This is my white twin sister.’

“No one could believe it. People look at us like it’s some kind of miracle. I’m still amazed that we are twins.”

Hayleigh

 

 

Defying the Odds
The two younger sisters are no different, which means this family is literally the only one in the world with two sets of bi-racial twins.

“Even non-identical twins aren’t that common. Non-identical twins from mixed parents, of different races, less common still. To have two eggs fertilized and come out different colors, less common still. So, to have it happen twice must be one in millions.”

Dr. Sarah Jarvis of Britain’s Royal College of General Practitioners

The two younger daughters have grown to look more alike as time goes by, unlike their older siblings.

Georgia Couple Welcomes Quadruplets Just in Time for Christmas “My 4 Precious Miracle Babies”

0

Kortney and Justin Miller welcomed four new little ones weeks earlier than expected.

When you hear heartwarming stories about couples overcoming major odds to ᴄᴏɴᴄᴇɪᴠᴇ, ɪɴꜰᴇʀᴛɪʟɪᴛʏ is usually the culprit. For Kortney and Justin Miller, a couple in their early 20s, it seems as if over-ꜰᴇʀᴛɪʟɪᴛʏ was at play when they naturally ᴄᴏɴᴄᴇɪᴠᴇᴅ quadruplets.


Are you ready for the odds? I don’t think you’re ready. The odds of ᴄᴏɴᴄᴇɪᴠɪɴɢ quadruplets without I.V.F or ꜰᴇʀᴛɪʟɪᴛʏ ᴛʜᴇʀᴀᴘʏ are 1 in 700,000. As if that isn’t rare enough, the Miller quads are even more extraordinary. Each child came from its very own ᴇɢɢ, which led to four individual sᴀᴄs and ᴘʟᴀᴄᴇɴᴛᴀs. In layman’s terms, that means that, prior to the quads’ ᴄᴏɴᴄᴇᴘᴛɪᴏɴs, Kortney Miller released four ᴇɢɢs at once. Busy mama.


Kortney and Justin already had their hands full with their 4-year-old son, Bentlee, when they were told that their family of three would soon become a family of seven. They weren’t quite prepared for the news, but Kortney had a hunch. Multiples, after all, run in her family. “I was sure I was having more than one,” Kortney told Today. “I felt a little different.”

Yep, we’d expect you’d feel a tad different when you’re, you know, carrying four tiny humans inside of you. “I never thought there would be four,” she continued. At the ultrasound, with her mother by her side, she discovered that she would be “carrying on the tradition” with Miller multiples.

The Georgia couple turned to their OB-GYN, Dr. Heather Turner, at Piedmont Newnan Hospital, where a team of doctors and nurses (dubbed the “quad squad”) assembled to prepare for the babies’ arrival. It was the first time the hospital would be delivering quadruplets.

 

 

“There was a lot of preparation to do,” Dr. Turner told Today. “Any time we anticipate a preterm delivery, there is a lot of coordination across the labor and delivery unit as well as the hospital to lay the groundwork so everything can be as smooth as possible.”
Weekly interdisciplinary meetings for doctors and conferences with the Millers were hosted to maximize the chances of a successful delivery. So when Kortney came in for a check-up on December 16, a quiet Friday morning, to discover that she was three centimeters dilated, it was all systems go. Her husband arrived just in time to witness the ᴄᴇsᴀʀᴇᴀɴ birth.

Kortney and Justin are now the proud parents of three boys – Brandon, Brayden and Bryant – and one precious little girl, Kenlee. Brandon was the largest of the four, weighing in at 3 pounds, 1 ounce. The babies are currently in the N.I.C.U and are thriving. Dr. Turner says the birth went “amazingly well” and that the babies are expected to grow stronger over time.

Big brother Bentlee is a tad overwhelmed but is quick to remind everyone that his siblings are his babies. It looks like the overprotective big brother gene has been activated. “We are so excited and blessed to have four healthy babies,” Kortney told the Newnan Times Herald. “We can’t wait to go with them on their journey as they grow and progress.”

5 Babies?! Family Shares Their Secrets To Raising Quintuplets

After two ᴍɪsᴄᴀʀʀɪᴀɢᴇs and many months of trying, Michael and Marganet Baudinet were starting to lose hope of ever becoming parents. Then, Margaret discovered she was pregnant after ꜰᴇʀᴛɪʟɪᴛʏ ᴛʀᴇᴀᴛᴍᴇɴᴛ. And not with just one baby, but five babies.

The American couple welcomed their five “bundles of Baudinet” – Ava, Clara, Camille, Luke and Isabelle – on December 4th, 2016 (eight weeks premature). After spending the first few weeks in Arizona under the watch of a specialist doctor, the babies (plus mom and dad) returned to their home in Virginia to begin their life as a family of seven.

Five little bums to change, five little mouths to feed, and five little babies to take care of. Like most people who meet the Baudinet bunch, we’re wondering how they do it.

It turns out, with plenty of patience, persistence, and products that are a must for all parents with multiples.

It takes a village…


The couple are the first to admit that it’s hard, actually, impossible to do without help, especially as they had very little experience in the world of newborns to fall back on.

 

 

“I have the blessing and the curse of not having any children before I had five children,” Margaret explains. “So, I don’t know what a “normal” nap schedule is like or how to only make one bottle for every feeding. I simply don’t have any sense or perspective at this point.”


Thus, the couple gathered a team of family, friends, and au pairs (10 different helpers in total) that worked on a rotating shift to help with the various duties that come with raising five newborns at once.

Running a family business

The family also works on a very tight routine, and Margaret admits that sometimes it feels like she’s running a business, not raising a family.

“I’m definitely the lead manager of this operation,” says Margaret. “We’ve got them all on the same schedule.”

Margaret explains that the babies are fed every four hours. For the first few months, the quin’s grandma was the official “chemist” in charge of making the bottles in advance as two babies have a special type of formula. Now Margaret or one of their au pairs takes on this duty. It takes at least two people, sometimes four, to do each feeding session.


The babies also managed to master synchronised sleeping, from around 12.30am to 7.30am, giving mum and dad a seven-hour break each night.

Five times the baby gear

Finding the right products was also a game-changer and played a massive role in day-to-day life, Margaret and Michael admit.

 

 

The couple tote around the tots in a Nissan NV, which they call the “Bubba Bus”. It seats 12 people comfortably (so there is space for another set of quintuplets… just saying).

One of the products Margaret especially loves is the Table for Two (above), which holds two babies (and their bottles) at once. The family also has quite the collection of baby gear, including five bassinets, three change tables, a basket full of dummies, and an assortment of bouncers.

The family maintains a Facebook page, a GoFundMe account, and a blog to keep family, friends and fans updated on their adorable babies. Now six years old, all five babies are happy, healthy and clearly keeping mom and dad on their toes.

Twins’ Giggles Are So Contagious, Mom And Dad Can’t Stop Laughing With Them

Twins can understand each other without having to say a word. Especially as babies, they can pick up on each other’s energy and easily gauge the emotional temperature of their other version – the most trusted person in their life from here on out.

Mom saw this tub time opportunity and captured the tender moment between twin boys Johnathon (to the left) and Garrett. These two frolicking water babies just love their bath time and don’t look like they’ll be moving anytime soon!

 

 

Johnathon and Garrett are two peas in a pod. After all, they both share the same DNA, so they have similar personalities and enjoy doing the same things. The best part about this video is the fabulous conversation they’re having, full of splashes and toys, clearly discussing important things of critical value and debating issues that resonate deeply amongst them – a conversation that none of us will ever be in on!

Their incessant baby chat and huge giggles are delightful to watch. These two will definitely get themselves in hot water once they go to school, however! It looks like they’re up to some silly antics, cracking up over something and potentially having just the best moment of their little lives! It’s hard to find someone to laugh that hard with, but these two will always have each other for a good chuckle.
