A baby’s first words are always special and for most children that tend to be the usual ‘Mama’ or ‘Dada’. For sure, the parent who has their little boy or girl say their name first feels especially special, but for this one family, it happened it little differently!Grandma and Grandpa came to visit them, and like most grandparents encourage their little one to say their first word, but for the little one, ‘Mama’ and ‘Dada’ really don’t seem to be words he wants to say!!
YouTube
These sweet and quite definitely very loving Grandparents could not be more proud of their beautiful grandson, his little ‘coo’ and ‘goo’ sounds are really lovely. Most of all though they are excited to try to get him to speak and say his first words…Funnily though his very first word is a completely unexpected surprise, everyone is completely stunned for a brief moment after he says the words, did they hear him right?YouTube
Yep, they certainly did hear him right, he really said it…Just before Grandma had been saying to him:
“Say, Mama. Do you want to?”
“Do you want to say milk?”
After a few tries Grandpa has a genius moment, and without too much thought says something unexpected…Grandpa looked straight to his Grandson and said:
“Taco!”
YouTubeThe little one paused and with a carefully thought out movement of his mouth, looking at grandpa’s amusement at the word he says the word!
As it just happens to be, the family have a cat called Taco and it’s the cat’s honor to have baby say his name! A big thanks goes to Grandpa and the cat from this really hilarious and great moment caught on camera!Looks like this little one feels quite close to the cat!YouTubeWath the amazing and funny moment it all unfolds in the video below and SHARE:
Bethani and Tim Webb met for the first time and Bethani knew that things were going to be different, how he smiled, his great passion for life and grandeur dreams pulled Bathani to him. So the fact that Tim felt the same was a relief, two years later Tim asked him to marry her…They really had no idea how their lives would be turned inside out just a few short weeks after their wedding day!
Facebook/Bethani Esther Irene Webb
After that period of a warm glow came to an end, Tim and Bethani began to discuss what the future was going to look like for them both as a couple. Were they going to buy a house, were they going to have pets? Would they have children?
Bethani told the news channels that she was happy to start trying for a family right away, but Tim preferred to wait for a little and enjoy their time together as newlyweds.She said:
“My husband definitely wanted to wait a year. I was fine with whenever it ended up happening, but then we found out we were very excited, only thinking we were having one…”
Bethani realized that she was pregnant and they shot straight to the doctors to have an ultrasound!
…but what happened next in the doctor’s office was going to be something they will remember for the all of their lives!Facebook/Webb Quadruplets Updates
The tech positioned the ultrasound wand scanner over her stomach at precisely the correct angle, then announced, to both of them, that they were going to be having quadruplets!Bethani said:
“I could not believe it, I was in such shock. Honestly, I thought the ultrasound tech was joking. I couldn’t believe it… It was a good thing that my husband was sitting down because he almost fainted.”
Neither of them had a history of this in their families because they conceived naturally it was even rarer! The couple realized that having four identical girls happens once in fifteen million pregnancies!They were very grateful that the remainder of Bethani’s pregnancy went really smooth and she had four identical girls, McKayla, Grace, Abigail, and Emily…
Facebook/Webb Quadruplets UpdatesThe couple was in luck that the community all grouped together and helped them, people in their hometown started a fundraiser and ensure that they didn’t want for anything, how awesome!
She said:
“It’s really amazing because there would be no way we could do this by ourselves”
Neighbors as well as family members and even complete strangers all helped and looked after the couple any way they could, the couple knew things were going to be hard though!Facebook/Webb Quadruplets Updates
They are both coming to the realization that they now have children together and even though they never imagined it, they are both getting stuck in and making the most of their new position.Bethani said to the News:
“I think my husband has gotten used to the idea that there are four babies, but I don’t think he’s gotten used to the idea that there are four identical girls”
There will be arguments like all couples have, some hard and sad times too, but in the years to come, they know it will be worth it all.Facebook/Webb Quadruplets UpdatesThe girls are growing day by day and they will become fine young women one day, their proud parents will be there with them every step of the way!Please SHARE this great and pretty amazing story with friends and family!
People go about their daily lives, dashing from doing one job to the next, a guy perched on the sidewalk and singing can be an interruption to the flow of your day a little hiccup, enough to stop and listen…Many people think that a street performer is a lazy guy begging for money, couldn’t he just go and get a job, and some might be just to busy to appreciate the performance…
But for Jesse Rya things were different, he played his guitar outside the grocery store in Dallas-Fort Worth in Texas!
YouTubeJesse sat next to the store, he was singing an original song of his own, anyone could just stop and listen to it. As it happens a tall man came up to him, he had a small thought that someone had come to move him on, out of the way of customers.
However, when you’re making the right kind of noise, full of joy, it can be really infectious and carry the feelings with it!
The guy who approached Jesse was nonother than Howard Mullins, he wasn’t coming to move him on he was coming to join in with him…YouTubeAt first, Howards just listened, quietly appreciating the song, but then, like he had been compelled by a force beyond him, he just joined right in, being creative and following his heart and creative inner self.
Howard improvised with Jesse while joining in…
They sang:
Tell ’em that I just don’t know no, no no(All your chances I was never leaving)Tell ’em that I just don’t know no, no no(all the times that ive been down and out)Tell ’em that I just don’t know no, no no(I was thinkin’ I’d take all my life, all my time)
Then two other men came over, they walked over with a kind of swag that said they were coming for some of the action.They didn’t stop the song though, they were wearing yellow reflective vests, and one of them Ron Lashey, dances next to them, singing along with them.YouTubeRon’s obvious natural skill is not just dancing and singing though, he gets right into a rapid-fire freestyle rap about persistence in the plight of struggle.
Then after that, the three ‘artists‘ who are also three strangers to each other, break up and go off in different directions.An onlooker, James Maldondo, just happened to catch it all going on and after he shared it online. The video quickly gathered momentum until it got millions of views.Rya posted on social media so he could ask names of the fellow singers, he never thought that he would find out their names though.
It wasn’t long before they all found fame and they even made it to the Jimmy Kimmel show and onstage, the late-night host even accompanied on the sax!Facebook/Jesse Rya
This really was an awesome gathering like an angel from above had pushed them all together and then watched the show, some artists believed that in their sculptures the art was already formed inside, they just needed to reveal it, well these guys had talent, and for sure they revealed it to the world!Watch the amazing and lovely performance below, and please SHARE with friends and family:
There are often things behind your walls you might not imagine, it’s times like home renovations that can reveal them, things like cash, jewels, antiques. As you pull out the old ready to replace with the new almost anything unexpected could be hidden!Mark Von Thaden in California had a surprise behind his walls, but sadly for him, he wasn’t going to find something as lavish as what we said before, what he found was a critter had been doing his own renovations… and it looks like he has been doing it for a very long time!Facebook/Mark Von ThadenMark just wanted to give his pool house a facelift, make it look sleek and cool inside, in the video clip he explains some of the work he needed to do, but after removing the wooden panels he notices many little holes in the walls.
Mark, with a little doom in his voice, happens to mention that he hates woodpeckers, funnily enough, a naughty little bird, a woodpecker, has been drilling holes in the walls for a special reason, he was creating a snack shack of his very own!
Facebook/Mark Von Thaden
Mark was soon going to discover that Woody the Woodpecker himself, had been a busy boy pushing acorns into the holes he drilled, for a long time!
Unfortunately for the bird, this strange tree was hollow and the acorns would fall to the bottom where he couldn’t reach them!
Even though he was on a fruitless task he just couldn’t stop himself, acorn after acorn, like throwing quarters in a slot machine, one after the other, mar was soon to discover exactly how many acorns were behind the walls…
Facebook/Mark Von ThadenYou know those bins you see at the grocery store, the vertical ones that contain nuts, beans, and rice? when you lift the slot they pour out…
Well watch the video when he lifts the insulation back, does it remind you of anything else, like in your grocery store?
This little woody-woodpecker had unknowingly been creating a mass food storage unit for acorns and that is just why this quite unhappy guy hates woodpeckers!
He certainly has his work cut out for him now, for sure!!Facebook/Mark Von ThadenWatch this video below and see for yourself, and please SHARE with your friends and family…
A childbirth is both a special thing and a unique miracle, each and every time, especially for loving parents…
There are some births that really are unique, in a way every birth is unique, but some more than other births.
This one couple has always said to themselves that they really want a family, and it wasn’t long at all after they got married that they found out that they were going to be parents.
They really didn’t imagine that they were going to have a pregnancy that was one in a million!
Tim and Bathani first met each other about two years before they finally married in the June of 2015, then around three months after that Bethani went to the hospital after she discovered that she was pregnant, for her routine ultrasound checkup.
When the nurse realized that the image on the ultrasound was very special, both her and the parents were in disbelief at what their eyes could see on the scan!
The couple never could have imagined in a million years that they were going to have four identical quadruplet girls, in fact the chances of this happening are about one in fifteen million!Bethani said:
“I could not believe it, I was in such shock. Honestly, I thought the ultrasound tech was joking. I couldn’t believe it”
Although she had to have a C-section around the 33 weeks mark, in the June of 2016, four healthy little girls were born and called Grace, Emily, Abigail, and McKayla.
Neither mom nor dad of the little girls had any previous history of quads in their past that they knew of, however the children were conceived naturally, so, you can understand how rare his occurrence was!
If they had undergone any kind of fertility treatment, then we might understand that this happened, for for a natural conception this was completely amazing!
The couple are having a really hard time being able to tell the twins apart though, but to help with the problem they painted their toenails in different colors, its their secret code!
Caring for just one newborn baby is pretty hard work, but for four, managing day to day tasks really seems gargantuan, it’s a wonder how their mental state remains in tact each and every 24 hours!
Having four little cheeky babies is so much more expensive than you could imagine though and they rely on weekly donations to help them to survive sometimes too!
Bethani said:
“It’s really amazing, because there would be no way we could do this by ourselves”
The couple feel really blessed, even though sometimes they just don’t know how they are going to cope with it all.
The family now live with Tim’s mom, she really does love her grandchildren dearly, they make her feel so happy!
Life really has got surprises for us all, but its how we cope with those surprises that defines you as a person and show haw beautiful people we can be too!
SHARE this lovely story to inspire us all and you friends and loved ones, how beautiful life can really be…

Everyone loves a clutter-free and organized home. Please share these useful tips with your friends and family!
The community group together in Johns Island, South Carolina, still very emotional after a complete nightmare of a situation, they had been searching for 24 hours for a girl that as kidnapped, Heidi Renae, just 4 years-old.Thankfully everyone feels a sense of relief that she has been discovered alive and safe in Alabama, but shocked about the circumstances around her disappearance back on 13th February this year.
There are five children living with their parents, Heidi was one of those five in a lovely community of Johns Island before this terrible thing happened.
Her father is a member of the coast guard and her mo is a stay at home mom who cares for all the children and their home, at the time it happened her father was out training with his work, out of town!
The day it happened was an awful day, a guy came into the family home, beat up Heidi’s mom and took Heidi with him, kidnapped, and gone!The police said that the first feeling that something was wrong came when Heidi’s mom didn’t turn up to pick up her two older children from the school…
The police went to the family home and then discovered that Heidi’s mom was there but had been ‘brutally beaten’, there were two siblings there, younger in age than Heidi and Heidi herself was gone!The police took action straight away and rushed Heidi’s mother to the hospital, she needed immediate surgery, her injuries were severe!
The community was truly shocked an horrified by what had happened, they joined forces with the police to search high and low for the little girl!
In the end, a railroad crew that was working over in Riverside, Alabama, 400 miles away from where Heidi lived were responsible for leading police to the child after they saw a car parked in the nearby woods that was suspicious.
Rick Oliver, Police Chief from Riverside arrived and approached the vehicle, as he got closer he saw a guy sleeping, also inside the car was the little girl!As they confronted the guy, he quickly pushed the girl out of the car to the police, then he drove off as fast as he could.
The guy was later arrested like he could ever have thought he would actually be able to get away, he is 37-years-old, called Thomas Lawton Evans and he was only released from prison a few short weeks ago!
Thomas Lawton Evans, 37 years old…
Police were seriously attempting to ascertain why he did it and if there was any connection from him to the Todd family, or if it was just a random attack.The little girl seemed to be physically unharmed, she was sat happily eating snacks and watching cartoons, but little do we know about the psychological effects the while ordeal has had on her.
She waited with the authorities who tried to make her as comfortable as possible while her farther came to collect her, he took a flight from Charleston straight away after he got the news about his daughter.
John Tecklenburg, Charleston Mayor announced the news that the little girl had been found, there was a lot of relief and cheers from the crowd, but everyone continued to pray for Heidi’s mom, still in hospital and seriously injured.Tecklenburg said:
“What could have been a day of real tragedy has turned out to be a day of great joy”
Oliver agreed, and he said that Heidi’s safe return to the family was one of the greatest days of his 20-year career in law enforcement.
Oliver said:
“This is a blessing …It is nothing to do with luck. The good Lord put me in that place.”
You only get one chance to make a first impression, but these teenagers did everything they could when they realized their mistake.
A waiter in Los Angeles was serving four teens, really making sure that their evening was perfect. He then received a not so satisfying tip… The waiter was disappointed and upset that the kids and other people don’t understand the custom of tipping well for hard work.
He described on social media how he felt as a waiter when he only received a $3.28 tip from the teenagers:
“Nothing more frustrating than when I get little to nothing for a tip and the customer is smiling and thanking me profusely as they exit”. But then something very unexpected happened!
Roughly one week later, he received a letter:
“About a week and a half ago, on October 7, my 3 friends and I came to eat at this restaurant as our own homecoming celebration. It was an exciting experience for us to be here alone, and it was all new to us.
And you were the best waiter we could ask for. You were kind, helpful, accommodating, didn’t treat us like babies, and were even able to fit the food to all my allergies! So I wanted to say thank you for making our ‘grown-up’ experience so amazing and fun.
I would also like to say sorry on behalf of my group. Since we were new to all of this, our 13-year-old minds didn’t exactly know how to deal with the bill. You were super helpful in dividing the checkup and taking our not-so-preferable cash.
The bill was reasonable, but we had completely forgotten (and frankly didn’t know) what a tip even was, let alone how much to give. So we emptied our pocked and all our money added up to $3.28.”Imgur“Not aware of how small this really was, we left, clueless of what we had left you for all your hard work.
Later, we realized our mistake and felt HORRIBLE. We knew we had to make it right.
So in this envelope, you will find the correct 18% tip + extra for simply being amazing. We appreciate your help and patience and thank you for making our night fun. Thank you!”Imgur
The bill was roughly $100, and a $3.28 tip is less than four percent! Thankfully, the teens realized their mistake and made sure to handle it appropriately.
The waiter posted a picture of the letter online along with some inspiring and kind words:
“I’ve been serving a long time, and nothing like this has ever happened to me, or anyone. I don’t know how you learned or educated yourself on tipping, but I really appreciate the effort and kindness. I hope your Homecoming was fantastic!”
It’s not every day that people go that extra mile to right their mistakes, but when they do it can make all the difference in the world – and this hardworking waiter truly deserved it!
