“This two-year-old boy shocked everyone in the courtroom during his adoption hearing with one word. The judge ended the session immediately.
Mike and Jane were a married couple who longed to have a child. Despite their best efforts, they struggled to conceive and even faced an ectopic pregnancy, which left Jane on the verge of giving up. To make matters worse, her doctors advised her to abandon her dream of having a biological child due to the high likelihood of life-threatening complications.

At her lowest point, Jane turned to her childhood friend Sarah, a social worker, for support. Sarah suggested they consider joining a foster program. Although initially hesitant, Jane eventually agreed and managed to convince Mike, who shared her desire for a child. Sarah was able to speed up the couple’s paperwork, and just one month later, Mike and Jane got a call.
Sarah told Jane that they had a baby who was just six days old in urgent need of a loving foster home. His name was Jason, and she proudly announced that she’d already arranged for them to take him in. The couple was brimming with a sense of disbelief and anxious excitement. It all felt so unreal for both of them, and they agreed that this was, in its own, a miracle.
When Mike and Jane met Baby Jason for the first time, it was love at first sight. He was perfect in every way, and they couldn’t be happier. The atmosphere immediately turned to one of joy and warmth as soon as the couple had little Jason in their arms.
In the middle of their supervised visit with Jason, out of curiosity, Jane asked Sarah how Jason ended up in foster care. What Sarah said next broke the couple’s hearts and made them want to protect the child even more than before.
Sharon, Jason’s mother, had a history of drug addiction and had been pregnant numerous times in the past. However, due to her reliance on drugs, she had chosen to have abortions in most of those cases. When she became pregnant with Jason, she had already undergone too many abortions, and medical professionals warned her that having another one could lead to serious health complications.
Therefore, she carried the pregnancy to full term and gave birth to Jason. Adding to her decision to give him up was the fact that she had no idea who the father was. So, in a fleeting moment of motherly love, Sharon decided to surrender Jason to child services in the hopes that he’d be adopted by an amazing family who would give him the bright future that he deserved.
Jane held the baby boy close to her chest, feeling a sense of relief that he was finally safe with her and Mike. But the news that Sarah had to share with them was even more disheartening.
Sarah informed the couple with a heavy sigh and hands clasped together that there was a clause that they needed to be aware of. The clause stipulated that if Sharon turned her life around and got clean, she could reclaim Jason at any given time, which could potentially take him away from Mike and Jane. This news struck fear into Mike and Jane, as they had already viewed Jason as their own and couldn’t bear to part with him.
Mike immediately asked if there was any way to counteract such a thing, but unfortunately, Sarah informed that there wasn’t. Following their meeting with Jason, they felt uplifted and decided to maintain a positive attitude. They headed out to purchase all the necessary items required to provide proper care for the six-day-old infant. The couple hoped that by doing so, they would demonstrate to the court that they were capable parents who deserved to keep and raise Jason for the long term.
The next day, they picked up Jason and brought him home. They transformed their old study into a stunning nursery for the little one. Mike and Jane took to Parenthood like Naturals, relishing even the most daunting tasks that would typically overwhelm first-time parents. They didn’t mind sleeping restlessly to tend to their baby’s every need and found themselves contently watching over him as he slept, even when he didn’t require anything from them.
The couple was ecstatic about it all and even enjoyed getting to change their son’s diapers because, to them, little Jason was a Beacon of Hope for a brighter future. At the beginning, Mike and Jane were constantly worried about Sharon appearing out of nowhere and taking Jason away from them permanently.
However, as time passed and weeks turned into months and months into a year, they started to feel more at ease. Mike began to think that maybe Sharon had moved on. However, Jane continued to harbor a slight fear of losing Jason to his biological mother. Her love for him was so deep that she even had nightmares about the possibility of Sharon taking him away.
As far as Mike and Jane were concerned, Jason was an Irreplaceable part of their family, and they were determined to keep him with them no matter what. Jane convinced her husband to take action and hired a lawyer to help them find a legal way to officially adopt Jason and keep him permanently.
Despite their efforts, the lawyer was unable to find any loopholes or legal grounds in their favor. They discovered that if Sharon decided to reclaim her biological son, there was nothing that could stop her. The only requirement was for her to prove that she was capable of taking care of him. Furthermore, permanently adopting their adorable toddler would prove to be a difficult and grueling process for the couple and their attorney.
Mike and Jane found themselves still endlessly searching for loopholes or just any way that they could guarantee that Jason would remain in their care. Despite Child Services constantly reassuring them that Sharon would have to match or beat their parenting in order to have a shot at taking their sweet little boy away from them, the events that unfolded next would be etched in the memories of everyone involved as Mike and Jane’s worst fears became a reality.
Sharon had come to claim her baby. To make matters worse, Sarah had informed Mike and Jane that Sharon had turned her life around and could potentially gain custody over Jason. This news was devastating for the couple as they had grown to love Jason as their own and couldn’t bear the thought of losing him.
‘I was devastated when we got the call,’ sighed Jane, while Mike just didn’t know what to do.
At two years old, Jason had become an integral part of Mike and Jane’s lives, and they simply couldn’t imagine parting with their sweet, giddy toddler. As they reflected on their favorite memories with him, the couple knew that they had to fight for their right to keep him.
The couple was devastated to learn during the hearings that things were not going in their favor but rather insurance despite their continuous efforts to dispute Sharon’s claims in court. They were not making any headway. Feeling defeated, the distraught couple began to say their heartfelt goodbyes to their beloved son.
The following month, the couple begrudgingly took their son to the courthouse to hear the judge’s final verdict. During the trial, Sharon argued that she changed and claimed to want her son back in order to give him the best life she could, adding that as his biological mother, he belonged with her. However, Sharon had a hidden agenda that no one was aware of at the time. She wanted to take the innocent toddler from Mike and Jane in order to use him for financial gain. In short, she planned to use young Jason’s government allowance to buy more narcotics.
Judge Kurt Wilson presided over the incredible case, and as he read through the adoption decree, Jason did something that would forever alter the course of his
life. The two-year-old awoke from his peaceful sleep and giggled. As soon as Jane placed him in his stroller, he was, of course, oblivious to the magnitude of the current situation, as any toddler would be. Upon opening his eyes, the boy looked at Jane and suddenly yelled with outstretched arms, causing the judge to pause mid-sentence and earning a collective awe from all those present.
Jane, unable to control herself, burst into tears. ‘It was in that moment that you could just feel the entire atmosphere change,’ she said fondly, about to tear up once again.
The judge, hearing all he needed, immediately ended the hearing, despite Sharon’s vulgar protests as she screamed at Jane and Mike for turning her son against her. Though this didn’t bother the little family because the judge’s final decision was clear. He awarded parental rights to Mike and Jane, as he deemed Sharon too mentally unstable to care for little Jason.
However, after the trial, the judge said to the overjoyed couple that his mind was made up the moment he’d heard Jason refer to Jane as mama.
