within 30 seconds i started crying....im 19 years old and watching this has bought real tears to my eyes. the love you are giving and the gift of life is so beautiful. i myself would love to do such a thing one day :D
Wow appreciate you guys on this, it takes a lot of courage to take a step like this in life, I am very sure you have signed up for a life time happiness with Siddhi

this is such a beautiful story ! my older sister is adopted from india and one of the the little girls offered to my parents name was Siddhi =) shes absolutely beautiful and i know for a fact that i am going to adopt when i get older ! this video was so inspirational , thank you soo much for sharing =)
Oh my god I cried watching this! She's so cute and this is a very heartwarming video! I'm so happy for you people!! You've got such a beautiful daughter! :-D
we are also adoptive parents and we love to see how much love she got from you guys you all are so much blessings from god for people like us as we watch your experience with siddhi
Thank you so much for this wonderful video! I'm 12 years old and my family is adopting from Ethiopia and I am still flabbergasted by it all. I want to hold my sister/brother so much, I can't bear it.
I recently read Amy Carmichael's biography and started really having a heart for the orphans in India, especially the baby girls who are treated so terribly there. I want to adopt form India so much, and I think maybe Jesus is calling me to be a missionary. I'm praying :)
@mjpureevil Thanks! She was 19 months...she is thriving now, running jumping, talking, eating, loving! She just turned three this month. She is such a blessing
beautiful! I am an adoptive mom as well and lived in india for a while. your video is great and shows so well what you were experiencing! enjoy life with Siddhi,
@Mrparrot73 oh ... and it would be better for her to be alone in a country where she has no family.. no education.. and no future? I suppose you would also throw a fit about my husband and I being married too... because my Indian husband married outside his nationality and religion. Oh but guess what... were going to adopt.. does that make that wrong too?
@Mrparrot73 what about her very country india who shunned her and put her in a orphange- why did no indian couple come forward and claim her!! u dare say that foreigners shouldnt get to adopt from aboard- the quaity of life here is next to none!!
Thankyou for sharing your wonderful story, it brings back so many memories of when we met our daughter in Pune, India for the first time also. That was five and a half years ago now and each day we are in awe of how God brought us together. We are so truely blessed to part of our daughters destiny.
That video made me cry :)..I'm Indian myself and I was so deeply touched to what you gave to this wonderful little girl, a loving family and the opportunity for a good life. She is truly God's gift for you. He has chosen you to be parents of her and want you to be protective of her and love her as no other. I think I'd like to adopt, but I know my family won't allow as they are very strict :(
@8270361507 We didn't know what our friends and family would say and I am sure it took some time for some to adjust. But now Siddhi is our family. We believe God chose her for us long before we ever decided to adopt. Maybe your son or daughter is just waiting for you to take the next step. Who knows? We'll pray for you! Thanks for your kind comments.
@8270361507 what an ignorant statement. If you want to adopt THEN ADOPT. How do I know? Because I AM adopted. In truth my birth mother was a 14 year old homeless prostitute. But I was adopted by a well off family. My father who raised me as his own is a top gov official. They never cared that I wasn't theirs by blood. I am their child. Their ONLY child. And if they hadn't taken me in.... what would have happened to me?? Think I dont understand, Im american.. im white... with an Indian husband.
@Shokara2 If you knew my family than you would understand :p. They'll just gossip shit and even probably disown for not following their "ways". Horrible I know. But if you knew them personally and lived with them..you would know. I know not all Indians are like that, and more relaxed..I am too, but some of them are such an ass and we just need to suck it up. I would do so if I had the will to. So that's not ignorant, that's the truth.
@8270361507 yeah... and a LOT of american families used to be exactly like that too. Blood thicker than water. People used to believe that if someone was an orphan it was because they were defective, or cursed. Over time that stigma has gone away as people have begun to speak openly about adoption. In every generation of my family there is at least one adoptee (me).. and my parents only child. I will carry on that tradition. Its our way of repaying society and doing our part for each generation.
What a eye opening journey... my husband and I did consider India but found (at the time) it was going to be 'hard' and without knowing it, we were 'led' to China... by the end of this year we will get our referral... just watching your video gave me the chills and that little bit of excitement for the journey we are about to approach... your daughter certainly has blossomed...
Thank you for your nice comments. We will be praying for you even though we don't know you. Indeed, it is a journey--the end of the journey, although just the beginning, is worth all of the rough roads. Thanks again for sharing your comments
Would you be able to tell us what songs you used for this video? The music you chose for this is simply gorgeous! I recognize some, but there is one song in particular I cannot seem to find- it begins around 4:00, and continues through 4:30 of your amazing video.
Thank you for your encouraging words. The first song is from Battlestar Galactica Sound Track believe it or not. It is called "Rosylyn and Adama". The soundtrack is by Bear McCreary.
The Second song is by Coldplay and is called "Life in Technicolor". The third song is called "Dil Gira Dafatan" and is from A. R. Rahman's soundtrack for Delhi 6. The fourth song is the Battlestar one Again just from a different point and the final song is Rahman again "Latika's Theme" from Slumdog Movie
How very touching, and it is what being adopted is truly all about. A child is given a chance to become loved and cared for, then lifted up to God as his child.
WISH UR FAMILY ALL THE BEST IN LIFE
