10-Year-Old Asks Stepdad to Adopt Him
Stepdad Completely Breaks Down When 10-Year-Old Asks to Be Adopted
Kalani Watson has had his stepdad, Brandon Craig Williamson, in his life since he was just 2 years old. Brandon has been there for Kalani through a lot — school programs, parent conferences, sick days, sporting events, family vacations — and the boy rationalizes that all of these things make Brandon his real dad, right? In a sweet letter written to Brandon, which Kalani read aloud at his 10th birthday party, the young boy says to Brandon: "I have three questions to ask you: do you love me? Do you love [my] mom? Can you live without us?" And after two yeses and a no, Kalani suggests they "stop playing" and adorably "pops the question" to Brandon, asking, "Will you adopt me?" Get ready to break down into tears with Brandon, y'all.
