Happy

One man recreated a memorable scene from “The Wedding Singer,” making for an adorable proposal to his girlfriend. This is a moment that the happy, newly engaged couple and everyone else on the plane will remember for a long time. Watch the short video to see how the young man made the scene from the beloved movie come to life.

Comedian and actor Adam Sandler has starred in and produced films for decades. While he has ventured into dramatic roles occasionally, he is most known for his comedic films, many of which are now beloved. His comedic films include such titles as “The Waterboy,” “Billy Madison,” “Happy Gilmore” and “Big Daddy,” just to name a few.

In addition to those movies, “The Wedding Singer” is a film that even the most casual Adam Sandler fan seems to love. Set in the 1980s, Adam plays Robbie, a wedding singer who slowly falls in love with Julia, played by Drew Barrymore. Eventually, after a lot of will-they-or-won’t-they, Robbie surprises Julia with a sweet proposal on a plane, which includes him guitar playing as he sings a hilarious tune.

In a clip posted on YouTube, one man surprised his girlfriend on their flight to Mexico with a marriage proposal, doing it exactly as Adam Sandler did in “The Wedding Singer.”

The video begins with the young man, Sam, on the plane’s intercom. He makes a heartwarming statement about his girlfriend, and then minutes later, he’s walking down the aisle singing and strumming on a fake guitar. His sweet and delightful performance ended with the proposal, to which Lissy said, “Yes.”

In an interview, Sam mentioned that he practiced playing the song on the guitar for months before popping the big question. But all that hard work on the guitar didn’t exactly pay off, according to Sam.

“I learned how to play it on guitar at first, which ended up being a totally useless because you can’t sneak a guitar on a plane without your girlfriend noticing,” he said.

Proverbs 18:22 “Whoever gets a wife gets a good thing, and has the approval of the Lord.”

“Wheel of Fortune” assisted with an adorable and heartwarming marriage proposal. The popular, long-running game show helped one young man propose to the love of his life. Check out the short video to see the special moment made possible by one of the most popular game shows of all time.

Marriage is a big, life-changing commitment. Nothing will be quite the same after getting married. The vows said and exchanged while standing at the altar in front of friends, family and God during a wedding ceremony are sacred and meant to be kept until death separates that couple.

However, before a couple can get to the altar and say, “I do,” one huge, important question must be asked first. Of course, the man must propose marriage to the young lady. Her answer then sets in motion events that result in the wedding and everything that follows that big day.

How the man proposes is supposed to be unique and a story that the couple can share with their children and grandchildren for years to come. Everyone wants that moment to be something they will remember forever. A clip posted on social media shows that one couple will likely never forget their special moment. They got engaged on the “Wheel of Fortune” set.

In the video, Ryan Seacrest and Vanna White explained the situation. They mentioned that the boyfriend of a former contestant actually reached out to the show, asking if they would be willing to help him out with the proposal. The people behind the program were happy to lend a hand and also a puzzle.

In the video, the woman solves the fake puzzle, which was “Will You Marry Me?” After she solves the puzzle, her boyfriend walks out onto the stage, gets down on one knee, and asks the all-important question.

Of course, she said yes, and the happy couple celebrated with a kiss and a loving embrace. What a special and unique moment!

Genesis 2:24 “For this cause will a man go away from his father and his mother and be joined to his wife; and they will be one flesh.”

One man traded his golden years for parenthood in a beautiful adoption story. Emilio initially thought his time parenting small children was over, but he made a surprising and heartwarming decision. Check out the short but sweet video of how Emilio became the adoptive father of a 3-year-old girl.

All children deserve loving and caring homes. They want to be somewhere where they feel safe, secure and have peace of mind. Sadly, though, many children do not have this, having been born into less-than-ideal situations and circumstances. Many children have never experienced love, safety, security and peace.

Foster care and adoption are of the utmost importance, offering children a chance, some hope and a future. Emilio, a retiree and father of three grown children who recently moved to Florida to enjoy his golden years, completely changed course and is now the adoptive father of Kiana, an adorable little girl.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Emilio admits that Kiana was only supposed to be with him for a month. However, things quickly changed.

“Yeah, I can’t imagine giving her back at this point,” Emilio said.

Kiana is over the moon about being adopted and having Emilio as her father.

“When I first got adopted, it was so amazing,” she said. “It’s like, really, I love him so much, like so much, like so much, like so very much.”

While choking up, Emilio explains that in the time Kiana has been with him, he has seen a dramatic change in her personality and demeanor.

“And I’m about to tear up because,” Emilio said before Kiana interrupted him.

“I was like so scared and shy,” Kiana says

“She was, you know, in a really bad space,” he said.

Emilio could have sat back, taken things easy, and enjoyed his retirement. But instead of doing that, he is giving a young woman a much-needed safe and happy home full of love and happiness.

Matthew 9:37 “Then he said to his disciples, ‘The harvest indeed is plentiful, but the laborers are few.’”

A Marine and his grandmother share a beautiful, tearful reunion. It’s the kind of moment that needs no words, but you’ll want a tissue or two. Sometimes, love is louder than the miles that separate us. Sometimes, it finds a way to wrap around us like a soft quilt stitched together with memories and longing, reminding us that no matter the distance, love waits faithfully. That’s what unfolded in a viral video that showed a tear-soaked moment on the backyard patio, a sacred meeting place for a Marine and his beloved grandmother.

The video was captioned: “A U.S. Marine returns home after deployment and surprised his grandmother.” 

He had been gone for months, maybe even years, in the ways that time stretches when we ache for someone. Duty had called him to faraway places, but her prayers had followed him like a shadow. Every whispered "be safe," every tear-streaked plea, had been her offering to God on his behalf.

This young Marine was waiting to hug his grandmother with all his might when she walked through the backyard and saw him sitting there. And there she was, his grandmother, with her silver-streaked hair and trembling hands pressed to her mouth in disbelief. It wasn’t just a reunion; it was redemption in human form, a reminder that no distance can fray the threads of love as she cried tears of joy. 

“I’ve missed you! Oh my God, what a surprise!” she said. 

She reached for him with a cry that seemed to spill out years of worry and longing all at once. He bent down, holding her like she was his lifeline, their tears mingling in a wordless conversation. Those moments stretched on, timeless and holy as if heaven itself leaned in to watch love in action.

This is the beauty of human connection, the kind that moves mountains of distance and breaks through the barriers of time. It’s the kind of love that reminds us we are never truly alone. And in this reunion, we are gently reminded that love is the gift we carry home, no matter how far we roam. We hope you enjoyed this beautiful moment between this grandmother and her grandson. Thank you for your service, young man!

1 Corinthians 13:7 "Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance." 

There are few things as precious as a mother’s love for her children, and this mother’s emotional reaction to a surprise visit from her military son is a beautiful illustration of that love. Check out her utter joy at seeing her deployed son appear out of nowhere when she least expected it! Hoda Kotb shares the story during the Today segment, Hoda’s Morning Boost. 

Aretha, an Oklahoma mom, traveled to Texas to inspect a new home for her son, a Private First Class soldier in the United States Army serving in South Korea. Soon after starting her walk through of the home, Aretha got a big surprise! 

Watch as Aretha comes down the hallway, phone in hand, taking pictures and videos, and enters the kitchen. After doing a little double-take, Aretha realizes who is coming through the door. It’s her handsome son Marcion! Aretha cannot contain her excitement; she screams and drops to the floor.  

It is the most heartwarming scene! Marcion bends down to embrace his pretty momma, and their smiles and hugs reveal an incredible bond. Of course, the older man in the video is not as demonstrative, but Aretha doesn’t hold back. Her boy, whom she thought was overseas, is right there in front of her!  

Mom loves on her son, but she doesn’t have to miss him nearly as much going forward. Marcion had made arrangements to come home early to surprise his mother, but he would soon be living just one state away. They’ll get to see each other much more often! “The Sooner State” mom may be making a lot of hurried trips west (and south) as those zealous and greedy settlers did ahead of the Land Rush of 1889, but she won’t be doing anything wrong at all! 

We sure are blessed to have young men and women willing to serve in our armed forces. It is a double blessing when their service is completed, and those servicemen return home safe and sound, welcomed back by loved ones like Aretha! 

“For I too was a son to my father, still tender, and cherished by my mother.” Proverbs 4:3 

A group of siblings came together to celebrate their dad’s last day of work in the sweetest way. On his last work day, the retiring father received a precious surprise from his children. Check out the video to watch the heartwarming surprise.

Many people plan for and eagerly await their retirement. Reaching the point when you no longer need to work is a big, momentous occasion in everyone’s life. But when that day finally arrives, how do you properly recognize and celebrate someone’s last day of work?

A clip posted on social media showed that three siblings knew precisely how to recognize their father’s impending retirement. What the siblings did was unexpected and unique; their retiring father will likely remember it for a very long time. They used the occasion to create a sweet, precious memory.

In the video, one of the three siblings mentions that their father, who has worked at the high school for over 40 years, drove them to school every day for eight years. So, they showed up and surprised him on his last day of work. But instead of him taking them to school, they were hitching a ride with Dad to their jobs.

The siblings even made a playlist of songs they’d commonly listen to during those carpool rides with their father. Also, they made sure to make one essential stop along the way: a bagel shop. The sibling narrating the video explains that this was a stop they made every day on their route to school.

“Ten out of 10, would recommend just randomly showing up to your parents' house to carpool to work, especially if they took you to school like every single day for eight years,” the video’s narrator said.

What a sweet but simple surprise that likely meant the world to their father.

Proverbs 22:6 “If a child is trained up in the right way, even when he is old he will not be turned away from it.”

A son and his mother in hospice shared a beautiful, moving dance at his wedding. This is likely one of the sweetest, heartwarming, yet heartbreaking videos you’ll ever see. Have the tissues nearby while you check out this short but powerful story.

Weddings and everything about the big day are always emotional occasions. It’s the literal formation of a family, two people who vow to remain together regardless of what life may throw their way. Many people often shed a tear or two or three. How could you not at least get a little teary-eyed?

Of course, the wedding ceremony is only part of the big day. The reception that typically follows provides many other opportunities for people to bring out the tissues. Usually, at a reception, the moments most likely to bring those in attendance to tears are the father-daughter and the mother-son dance.

A clip posted on YouTube captured a mother-son dance that will likely bring everyone to tears. As explained in the video, the groom’s mother had been undergoing a battle with cancer, and they weren’t even sure that she would make it to the ceremony.

“I was just happy that I was there, and I was able to dance with him,” Olivia Armaro, the groom’s mother, said. “That was really my main concern.”

After successfully undergoing treatment for breast cancer, doctors discovered that she had masses in her lungs and cancer in her brain. While undergoing treatment for the cancer in her lungs and brain, Olivia was informed that she had only months to live.

Despite that heartbreaking news, Olivia was determined to attend her son’s wedding and dance with him. Even though many in the family had concerns about whether she would make it to the wedding date, Olivia was in attendance.

“Life is short,” Olivia said. “Be good to people; they’ll be good to you.”

Revelation 21:4 “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.”

A teacher found a unique and heartwarming way to include his students on his wedding day. The happy couple's involvement of the fourth-grade students in their special day will be something they will remember forever. Check out the sweet video to learn how the youngsters were included.

Every couple wants their wedding day to be a happy and joyous moment. After all, a wedding and the following reception are a celebration and recognition of two people finding one another, falling in love and vowing to remain together for the rest of their lives. There is arguably nothing more beautiful than that.

Understanding the importance and significance of a wedding and its day, every couple wants to add something special, their own twist. One couple, Thomas Randles and Halle Strieter, created the centerpieces for their wedding reception by having his fourth-grade students make them.

In the video, the couple explained that they asked the children to write answers to two questions: Why do people get married, and What is love? The kids’ answers, which Thomas did not help the children answer, were then framed and put on the tables.

Of course, the couple had their favorite. It was one that was so incredibly cute, simple but still very powerful. 

“The cutest one was ‘What is Love?” Thomas said.

“’When you see the person,’” Halle said.

“Yes, ‘When you see the person, and your heart races fast,” Thomas added.

Later in the clip, the couple mentions that the student-created centerpieces were a big hit at their wedding. It was an incredibly fitting touch for their big day because there are many teachers in their families.

“So, there were like so many teachers in the room,” Halle said. “So, everyone really enjoyed it. They were getting a kick out of it.”

James 3:1 “Do not all be teachers, my brothers, because we teachers will be judged more hardly than others.”

One man’s powerful adoption story shows God’s hand at work. The timing of these events and how everything had to align perfectly is no coincidence. Check out the short but powerful video to hear how God helped orchestrate one person’s adoption.

Children, every one of them, is a precious gift and blessing from the Lord above. As every parent knows and understands, Mom and Dad are, without a doubt, the most important title and position you will ever get. There is nothing quite like being a parent and watching your little one grow, learn and explore.

However, sadly, for whatever reason, some couples cannot have children of their own. But that doesn’t mean that parenthood is out of the realm of possibility for them. One of the many ways to become a parent involves adoption.

In a clip posted on YouTube, one man recalls the powerful sequence of events that led to him becoming adopted. His story shows how God was most certainly involved in saving his life and finding him a home.

“My mom was a 15-year-old girl who got pregnant, and she was on her way to an abortion clinic,” he said. “And on her way to that clinic, she popped into a church to talk to the pastor about some advice on the biggest decision she was going to make in her life up to that point.”

At some point during their interaction, the pastor, talking with the scared pregnant young woman, stepped away to make a phone call. He contacted a fellow pastor to ask how he should handle this situation and what advice he should give the young lady.

It turned out that the pastor who received the phone call was, at that very moment, counseling a couple who had struggled for a decade to have children. The couple were in the pastor’s office at the time of the phone call.

“So, I got adopted because of these two pastors that were friends,” he said.

Psalm 127:3 “See, children are a heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.”

A 90-year-old woman made her dream a reality when she graduated from college. Earning a college degree was something this great-grandmother always wanted to do, and she made it happen. Check out this short video to hear her inspiring and uplifting story!

No matter how many degrees someone obtains, an education will always and forever remain incomplete. There will always be more facts and figures to learn and understand. We’ll never acquire all the knowledge and information that is available. Everyone should remain a learner, regardless of age or stage. We will always have room to learn, grow and improve.

Annette Roberge understands the value and importance of education and the need to be a lifelong learner. The 90-year-old also knows we are never too old to dream and work toward making those dreams a reality. That is precisely what she did when she walked across the stage and accepted her college degree.

In the clip posted on YouTube, Annette explains that she had to put her academic dreams on hold for years. After her husband was killed in the Vietnam War, Annette was left to raise her five children all by herself. Annette put her children’s needs and wants ahead of her own. The “children came first,” Annette said.

The video explains that she discovered something when she attempted to renew and enroll at Southern New Hampshire University. She learned that she had already obtained the required number of credits for an associate’s degree.

“It’s so unreal,” she said. “I know I see it on the wall. I mean, I got it, but it’s just, it’s like still being in dream world.”

Congratulations, Annette! What an incredible and inspiring accomplishment. She is a perfect example to others, showing they are never too old to dream and do something. We never know what we are capable of until we try.

Proverbs 18:15 “The heart of the man of good sense gets knowledge; the ear of the wise is searching for knowledge.”

A dog who was scared to death of humans undergoes a heartwarming and beautiful transformation. The animal did not want anything to do with human beings but eventually warmed up and found a forever home. Watch this short clip to watch this pup’s dramatic and astonishing change.

Everyone wants to be loved and with people who will protect and treat them right. These are basic needs every human being desires and deserves. If those aren’t met, people can and will grow up to experience various problems and issues.

The same is true for animals to a certain extent. A clip posted on YouTube shows how an animal who grew up not interacting with humans or having any contact with them reacted when someone took it in and attempted to care for it. The dog would shy away, take cover behind other dogs and literally shake because it was so frightened.

“He didn’t want to be handled,” the woman narrating the clip says. “He wouldn’t look at you at all.”

The clip mentions that they had to wait a month before they could even bathe the animal because he was so afraid.

Raoul’s foster parent was willing to take a chance on him and do whatever it took to help this animal. Eventually, that kindness and patience started to pay off as Raoul began to open up, welcoming more interaction with humans.

“Every day was a baby step,” she says about Raoul.

After about 10 days with his foster mom, Raoul began making strides, literally. He would take one, two and three steps in her direction.

“He just needed to learn that humans weren’t so scary, and after he understood that, he was good,” she said.

The video ends by adding that after Raoul made these significant changes in his attitude toward and view of humans, he found his forever home and was adopted.

Proverbs 12:10 “An upright man has thought for the life of his beast, but the hearts of evildoers are cruel.”

After aging out of the foster system, a young woman finally got adopted into a loving family. The woman spent years in the foster system and actually aged out, but she was still adopted and now has parents and a loving home. Check out this heartwarming story, and make sure to have some tissues ready.

Everyone wants to be with people and in a place where they are loved and feel safe and secure. Not only does everyone want that, but they deserve to have it and feel that way. A stable and loving environment is critical to a child's development. 

Sadly, many children, through no fault of their own, find themselves in places where there is little to no love but chaos and instability reign. Children in those situations are very often abused and neglected. To try and remedy the situation, children are then placed in the foster system, where adoption by a loving, caring family is often a possibility.

Autumn Wise was one of those children in the foster care system. A clip posted on social media mentions that Autumn spent most of her life in the system. She was placed in foster care at just 3 years old and remained in the system until she aged out at 18. 

While she may have aged out at 18, two years later, at 20 years old, Autumn finally received what she had wanted her entire life: a family. 

"Once I turned 19, my now-parents had asked me if I wanted to be adopted," she said.

Autumn's adoption was official at 20 years old. To commemorate and remember the moment Autumn officially became a part of their family, her parents created a special name for that occasion.

"My parents called it Autumn's Day," she said.

Autumn added that being adopted and finally having a mother and a father means the world to her.

"It's astronomical," she said. "I, I have been standing on my own two feet for as long as I can remember. Granted, I'm still very stubborn. However, my parents have given me a foundation where if I fall, they're there to help pick me up. I didn't have that growing up."

1 Corinthians 16:14 "Let all you do be done in love."

A mother and son have been reunited after he discovered that his birth mom owns his favorite bakery. A shocking and unexpected turn of events ended with a man reuniting with the woman who gave birth to him. This is such a sweet and heartwarming reunion that all started because of delicious baked goods.

Most people have a sweet tooth. Sure, we would do better to avoid them with more regularity. However, indulging yourself occasionally with a sweet treat here and there isn’t all terrible, right? After all, when it comes to food, is there anything better than that first bite of cheesecake, a chocolate chip cookie or a cupcake?

For Vamarr Hunter, a Chicago resident, the best place to pick up a sweet treat is Give Me Some Sugah on the city’s south side. While that bakery is his favorite, trying to determine the top treat there is another story.

“The lemon bars,” he said. “That was, that was my catch, and the chocolate chip cookies and the lemon pound cake.”

According to the video posted on YouTube, Vamarr has been a faithful Give Me Some Sugah for about a decade. Vamarr has frequently enjoyed the Chicago bakery and always felt right at home.

The clip adds that Vamarr also enjoyed talking to the business owner. After discovering that he was adopted, doing some research and then getting an unexpected phone call from his favorite bakery, he found out why he might have enjoyed the bakery and talking to the bakery’s owner so much. She was his biological mother.

The video adds that Lenore, Vamarr’s biological mother, put him up for adoption when she was 17 years old.

“I left the adoption open, and I said, ‘You know, if he really wants to find me, then he’ll be able to find me. But otherwise, his life must be great. I wouldn’t want to interfere in that life,’” Lenore said.

What an unbelievable reunion. The two have since developed a close relationship. Vamarr now helps to run Give Me Some Sugah, handling most of the responsibilities.

“I love my son,” Lenore said. “And the fact that I have him now in these later years is just, like, I said, that’s just, that’s just God. God is love.”

Proverbs 22:6 “If a child is trained up in the right way, even when he is old, he will not be turned away from it.”

This beautiful clip captures the heartwarming moment when a little girl finds out that she’s going to be adopted. It will bring a tear or two to even the most unemotional person’s eye. Check out this sweet moment when this precious little girl learns she has found a forever home.

All children deserve a family and to be where they are loved, cared for and protected. Really, that is all anyone wants. Sadly, many children, through no fault of their own, are in places where that is not often the case. The foster care system is full of abused and neglected children who simply want to be loved and a place to call home.

A tearjerking clip posted on social media captures the moment a child learns that she has found her forever home, as well as a mother and a father. She gets to stay and no longer must quickly pack up her things as she goes from foster home to foster home. The happiness and sense of relief that comes over the child’s face is palpable.

The short but powerful video shows the foster mother and the little child in chairs facing one another. There are a few moments where neither of them says a word. It’s almost as if the little girl fears the worst that she will have to leave and go to another foster home.

The little girl begins the conversation by expressing her desire to stay where she is and with the people she loves. She has found somewhere where she feels safe and loved and doesn’t want to go anywhere else.

Then, the child’s foster mother lets her in on the big, exciting, and life-changing news.

“Well, guess what? Daddy and I are going to adopt you,” the subtitles read.

She takes a few moments to process what she has just heard. A big smile quickly forms on her face, and she informs her foster mother that she is “happy” about being adopted. She then leaps forward and gives her foster mother a warm, loving embrace.

The video ends with the child wanting to know the timing of her adoption.

“Am I going to be adopted right now?” she asks.

Psalm 127:3 “See, children are a heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.”
