Boy Jumps For Joy When Foster Parents Reveal He's Been Adopted

A six-year-old boy has warmed hearts on social media, thanks to the purity of his reaction when he was told that his foster parents had adopted him. Mom Megan Raby, from Smithfield, North Carolina, fought back tears behind the camera as Harvey was told the news. When Megan's husband, Brian, showed him a sign that said "Forever Ours" and informed Harvey of what this meant, the six-year-old looked stunned and then elated, saying, "I'm adopted?!", before confirming, "I'm gonna stay here?" The moment took place on March 10, 2020, but Megan and Brian did not share Harvey's reaction with the world until 2023. Harvey came to the Raby family when he was two years old, in July 2019. And when they found out Harvey's adoption was official on March 9, 2020, Megan and Brian wanted to tell Harvey, now nine, in a special way. Since sharing the video online, Megan has had members of the public come up to her to say that they have seen Harvey's wholesome reaction.
