There is no arguing that horses are one of the most gracious creatures there are. Elegant and friendly, they make perfect pets for those living in areas where they can take care of them and let them run as much and as long as they want.

On top of that, horses are also part of a number of police departments and are often used during demonstrations and riots as they allow officers to have better visibility of what is going on.

9-year-old girl named Felicia Kononchuk from Russia was shot in the head with a 12 caliber hunting rifle by her family’s neighbor, 33-year-old Vasily Dunets.

Before the shooting took place, Felicia posted a TikTok video explaining that she and her little brother were home alone as their father went to the shop to quickly grab something and the neighbor was knocking on their door without stopping.

“We have a neighbour here, drunk, knocking on our door, breaking it,” Felicia said in the video. “Shouting obscene words. I’m just scared… He is totally… I’m scared… My dad went to the shop. I don’t know what to do, he will just break our door now and that’s it. I’m very scared, my heart is beating… He’s been knocking for about an hour. It’s tough… My youngest brother just hid…”

Eventually, the banging on the door stopped, and Felicia’s father, Fyodor, returned home. Felicia felt relieved. Shortly after, however, someone knocked on the door and the girl thought it was her friend whom she was waiting to arrive. But just as she opened the door, drunk Vasily fired a a rain of bullets and shot Felicia in the head. The girl fell down and her last words were, “Dad, I’ve been killed.”

Speaking of the tragedy, Felicia’s father told The Sun: “I took her in my arms and shouted to my son and the repair workers to call an ambulance. My daughter died in my arms. When the ambulance arrived, I carried her to them but the doctors said that she had no chance to survive.”

Felicia was described as “so cheerful and bright” by her heartbroken mother Alena. Everyone who knew her said she was a vibrant girl loved by her family and her friends.

It has been reported that the family was in a good relationship with the killer neighbor until he started complaining of the noise caused by the workers who were doing some repairs in the house. Rumors are that Fyodor kicked Vasily during their scuffles a few days before. At the time, Fyodor was reported to have told the killer to go home and get some sleep as he was very drunk.

The killer has been arrested and is facing life in prison.

Rest in peace, Felicia. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family that is going through immense pain.

Body language experts claim that Meghan’s hand gestures during Oprah interview show change in her relationship with Harry

By

From the very first moment the world learned of the relationship between Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, the couple have been under the spotlight.

Starting from their glamorous wedding which was broadcasted and seen by more than 29.19 million viewers, to the birth of their son Archie Mountbatten-Windsor in 2019, to stepping down from their royal duties, the Sussex Royal’s every move has been closely followed by the media. That same media which “forced” them to leave the U.K. and move to the States.

When they announced their decision to step down from their royal duties, the spokesperson of Harry and Meghan said in a statement: “As evidenced by their work over the past year, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex remain committed to their duty and service to the U.K. and around the world, and have offered their continued support to the organisations they have represented regardless of official role.”

However, Queen Elizabeth herself had “written confirming that in stepping away from the work of the Royal Family, it is not possible to continue with the responsibilities and duties that come with a life of public service,” the announcement by the palace said. It added: “While all are saddened by their decision, the Duke and Duchess remain much loved members of the family.”

Last week, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex had their first big prime-time interview since splitting with the royal family when they sat opposite Oprah Winfrey. Many said the timing was not right as Harry’s grandfather, Prince Philip, is at the hospital for his longest stay so far.

Youtube/CBS

In the promo video of the interview released on Oprah’s YouTube channel, she asks Meghan: “Were you silent or were you silenced?” Harry is shown speaking of his late mother. And as we are all in anticipation of hearing what the couple had to say, a body language expert, Judi James, has a thing or two to say about Meghan’s hand gestures.

Speaking to The Mirror, James said: “I think when Meghan came to the UK, Harry very much saw himself in the role of overly protective husband that knew that all hell was going to break lose in terms of press and public interest, and was desperate to protect her – albeit that she presented herself as a very confident woman.” She also added how she believes that “the tide has completely changed” and it is now Meghan who has the role of a protector in the family.

“This hand gesture that you can see, he’s got his hand on the chair and she’s placed her hand on top,” she says. “That’s almost a maternal looking gesture, it’s though it’s being used for reassurance and to let him feed off her confidence.”

Youtube/CBS

Further, James says that Meghan seems more confident because she used to be an actress and is comfortable in front of the cameras, which clearly isn’t the case with Harry.

We can’t wait to watch the interview with one of the most famous couples in the entire world. I am sure you feel the same.

Body of 6-year-old boy who was reported missing was dumped in the Ohio river

By

The news of the murder of a 6-year-old boy disturbed the country. Little James Robert Hutchinson was reported missing on Sunday and as millions of people who heard his mom’s pleas were praying for his safe return, investigators discovered that James was killed days before he went missing and it was his 29-year-old mother Brittany Gosney and her 42-year-old boyfriend Hamilton who did it.

James’ body was dumped in the Ohio River but it is believed that he was killed around 25 miles from the place.

“Upon further questioning of Brittany Gosney and her boyfriend James Hamilton, they now say that James was killed in Preble County a few days ago,” Middletown Police Chief David Birk said, according to WHIO7 News. “The child’s body was brought back to Middletown, where they live, and later put into the Ohio River.” 

The heavy rains and the snow melting made it difficult for investigators to determine the exact location of where James’ body was dumped. “The river is very high and treacherous, so we will not be disclosing the exact location in hopes of avoiding another tragic incident,” Birk said.

The mother and the boyfriend were both arrested. She is charged with murder, abuse of a corpse and tampering with evidence. Her boyfriend is also charged with abuse of a corpse and tampering with evidence.

In the home where the couple lived there were two more children, but they have been taken away from them.

We are so sorry such a young and charming boy died in such a manner. Rest in peace little one.

“I stabbed my sister!” This is what the police at Manheim Township Police Department heard when ninth grader Claire E. Miller called 911 on February 22, 2021.

The officers arrived at the family home on Clayton Road in Manheim Township, Pennsylvania, to see 14-year-old Claire waiving at them as her hands were bloody. She then showed them where her sister was. The officers were shocked to see 19-year-old Helen Miller, who had cerebral palsy, lying on her back with a blood-stained pillow over her face. When they moved the pillow, they saw a knife stabbed in her neck, as reported by Lancaster Online.

According to the DA’s office, the murder took place in the night while the girls’ parents were sound asleep.

One of the neighbors, Sarah Delia, who didn’t know the family personally, described the incident as “shocking and tragic,” as per Fox 43. “It’s not the kind of thing we would expect in our neighborhood. It’s very quiet and peaceful,” she added.

Heather Adams, Lancaster County District Attorney, said via e-mail, “This certainly is an incredibly tragic and unusual case. Our sympathies are with this family as they try to cope with the impact of this crime. Investigators will continue to process and analyze evidence to determine the circumstances that led to the victim’s death.”

It has been reported that Claire was taken into custody and charged with first degree murder. She’s currently held without bail at the Lancaster County Prison.

The motive behind the killing remains unknown. “The investigators are going to be asking those types of questions,” Manheim Township Police Chief, Tom Rudzinski, told ABC 27 News. “Conducting those interviews of everybody that was involved, and trying to determine a timeline exactly what that would have lead to this awful event.”

Helen was receiving educational services from a school within the district. The spokesperson of the school offering those services said: “We were so saddened to learn of Helen’s tragic and unexpected passing. Our hearts go out to the family and friends of the Miller family. This is a devastating tragedy.”

Rest in peace, Helen.

When I stumble upon uplifting stories about young people who are doing all in their power to be the change they want to see in the world, my heart is full of respect. It is then that I realize that we shouldn’t worry about the future of this Earth.

Meet Aiden Knaus, a charming young man from Minnesota whom everyone loves. Besides spending time studying and hanging out with his friends, Aiden also cheers up the elderly at the local retirement home. The residents enjoy every second they spend around this loving boy. He makes their days a bit brighter, listens to their life stories, and charms them with his witty remarks. His mom says of him that he’s a “gift of gab,” and if you see the video below, you’ll learn why.

During his first year of volunteering, 13-year-old Aiden “spent more than 160 hours pushing veterans in their wheelchairs back and forth to therapy, the canteen and the chapel,” as reported by the Humankind. We have to say that’s pretty impressive.

Aiden’s mom, Tanya Hundeby, says, “I didn’t know that he could thrive in something like this. School’s been hard for him.”

Cute girl sings her boxer puppy a lullaby to sleep

Kids and dogs! Honestly, I can’t think of anything cuter than that. It’s a well known fact that dogs make great friends, but when it comes to kids, that relation is even more special.

Not only young children turn into better humans when they grow up with a furry pal by their side, but the dogs get to be spoiled too as they are surrounded by the most innocent and purest form of love. On top of that, they get to share a bunch of treats and lots of cuddles with their human siblings.

Source: Facebook/Paige Jolley Bumgarner

Four-year-old Marleigh and her four-legged companion Fiona love each other to the moon and back. Their days are filled with fun time and a very special activity that stole the hearts of many.

Namely, Fiona loves taking naps, and she does it in the most comfortable place possible, her sister’s arms. Little Marleigh rocks Fiona gently back and forth and even sings to her whenever she feels sleepy.

Luckily, the girl’s mom, Paige Jolley Bumgarner took a video of the two friends sharing a precious moment together and shared it for the rest of the world to see it.

Source: Facebook/Paige Jolley Bumgarner

The video starts with Marleigh singing the lyrics:

“Jesus loves me, this I know,
For the Bible tells me so
Little ones to him belong,
They are weak, but he is strong”

Fiona listens very carefully and enjoys Marleigh’s angelic voice.

Source: Facebook/Paige Jolley Bumgarner

The cutest thing is that the girl is aware she’s treating her dog the right way and could be heard saying: “I’m a good sister, mama.”

Her mom, who is obviously proud of her caring and loving daughter, answers: “You’re the best.”

Fiona isn’t just Marleigh’s pet, but she’s her bestie who gets all the love a young child can ever give to someone.

Source: Facebook/Paige Jolley Bumgarner

Fiona is now sound asleep, but Marleigh suddenly sneezes a couple of times and wakes her without wanting that. Sweet Fiona opens her eyes and pulls her head up, but once she realizes she’s still in her favorite person’s arms, she goes back to sleep.

Along with the cute video of these lovely friends, Paige wrote, “This is why this dog is so spoiled.”

Source: Facebook/Paige Jolley Bumgarner

It didn’t really come as a surprise that the video has been shared more than 600,000 times. People were quick to comment how the bond between the girl and the puppy triggered all of the right emotions in them. This is what one woman wrote: “This is so precious children can be taught to be good to fur babies although I think it came very natural with this little girl it definitely shows her parents have showered her with kindness and love❤️”

Another person added: “Oh how adorable is that just like a little mommy.”

Paige was touched by all the messages praising her daughter and her parenting, although she knows no one is perfect:

“While I am so grateful for these kind messages, the truth is I fail everyday. I fail the Lord and I fail Marleigh. I don’t feel worthy of all these sweet comments but I do know we have taught Marleigh we love everyone just like Jesus does. We hope she continues to show Jesus’ love the rest of her life. ❤️❤️ Thank you all again for all your sweet messages and comments!” Paige wrote.

Take a look at the adorable video below and make sure you share it with your friends.

Dance group performs mesmerizing human kaleidoscope routine to “Bohemian Rhapsody”

Simultaneous dance performances have always been my favorite. Watching a group of people moving with incredible precision and in a perfect harmony is pretty mesmerizing. On top of that, it takes a lot of time and effort to master such routines. 

Black Diamonds are a Drill Dance team whose latest performance has gone viral and took a lot of breaths away. At first glance, these team resembles that of cheerleaders, but they are far from that. Instead of jumping and performing different stunts, Drill Dancers move at the same time throughout most of the routine. 

Wearing matching outfits consisting of half black and half colored print and holding neon orange props with huge feathers, they opted for Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody” and stole many hearts. 

What Black Diamonds offered is so precise and unique that they did a great job and actually won the Australian National Championship. 

Their drill moves combined with Dance/Prop section brought Freddie’s lyrics to life. Honestly, we don’t believe they could have chosen a better piece of music than this one. 

At one moment, the group resembles a silhouette which forms a line and performs a sequence that reminds us of a mirror reflection. Next, they move further from one another and pretend their feathers to be their skirts. 

All the flawless dance sequences that Black Diamond pulled off in front of the staring eyes of the audience made them the stars of the competition. What’s most, they truly did justice to the everlasting piece of music that is still regarded one of the greatest rock hits of all time. 

These ladies showed talent, impeccable skills, and absolute confidence. It sure took them a lot of time and energy to excel the choreography, but the outcome was all worth it. They didn’t only end up winning the first prize, but people’s admiration as well.

As the melody comes to an end, the group forms what looks like a huge rotating flower, and the sight is just mesmerizing. This truly is a dance routine to remember, we are sure you don’t want to miss it. 

Police officer shot dead after argument over a face mask escalated during a high school basketball game

Tulane University police officer and a reserve deputy constable Martinus Mitchum was shot dead on Friday after an argument over a mask escalated during a basketball match in New Orleans.

Mitchum worked as a security during the high school basketball game when the shooter, later identified as John Shallerhorn, was trying to enter the place without a mask. After he was confronted by one of the school staff members, he started acting violently.

Our deepest condolences to the family, friends, and coworkers of Cpl. M. Mitchum. #tulaneu #tulaneemergency

Posted by Tulane University Police Department on Saturday, 27 February 2021

Officer Mitchum tried to intervene and brought Shallerhorn outside, but it was then that the suspect pulled out a gun and shot Mitchum in the chest. He was rushed to the hospital but nothing could be done. The officer was pronounced dead.

One of Officer Mitchum’s long time friends, Jason Bertrand, spoke to Khan saying, “I feel like Mitch saved lives last night because we don’t know what that gentleman really was coming in there to do. There was kids in there, families in there. What could you be going into a high basketball with a gun?”

Before shooting Officer Mitchum, Shallerhorn robbed a man outside the school and is now facing charges of armed robbery and first-degree murder of a police officer. If found guilty, he will likely serve a life in prison and even a death penalty.

Officer Mitchum died a hero. May he rest in peace.

Toddler dies in agony after her parents drench her in boiling water for soiled diaper

A two-year-old girl named Maddilyn-Rose Stokes was forced to suffer unbearable pain after her parents punished her for soiling her diaper by putting her in boiling water. The injuries the girl sustained were so severe that she died five days after she was cruelly hurt.

The incident took place on May 20, 2017, but the parents were only given prison time this year.

Maddilyn-Rose was reported to had died in agony as her untreated injuries were third degree burns which her parents, Shane David Stokes, 33, and Nicole Betty Moore, 26, tried to heal with aloe vera gel and bandages. When paramedics arrived in the family’s home, Maddilyn-Rose was unconscious. She was taken to the hospital but died shortly after.

Authorities who also arrived at the scene found bloody bandages and mattresses all over the place. “She would have been in misery and pain, unable to walk,” prosecutor Sarah Farnden told the court. “She would have been dehydrated and weak before becoming delirious and falling unconscious before going into cardiac arrest.”

According to the medical reports, the dad had given poor Maddilyn-Rose antidepressants so that she wouldn’t scream. The mother’s lawyers claimed she didn’t hurt her daughter and even considered calling an ambulance.

Eventually, both Moore and Stokes pleaded guilty and were sentenced to nine years and six months and eleven years respectively.

During their sentencing, Judge David Jackson said the toddler’s death was “dreadful and beyond tragic.” He also said, “Your concerns were for yourselves, at your daughter’s expense – it cost your daughter’s life. The greatest tragedy is that had you taken her promptly to hospital, called triple zero, her life would have been saved and she would have received proper pain relief. She would not have had to endure almost five days of excruciating pain suffered by the victim of untreated and serious burns – you both bear full responsibility.”

Many believe that these two, who don’t even deserve to be called a mother and a father, should have been sentenced to life in prison.

Rest in peace, Maddilyn-Rose.

Only God knows what our troops are going through when they are deployed in foreign countries and surrounded by hostile enemies. But it’s God who protects them and gives them strength to return home safely and be with their loved ones. Our soldiers and veterans are our pride and we can never thank them enough for keeping us safe and risking their own life for our freedom.

A video of a soldier named Stephen Stormberg getting baptized in the great river of Euphrates whose beauty and importance are numerous times mentioned in the Bible is one of the most touching things to ever witness.

Source: YouTube / Truth According to Scripture

There, in the heart of the Iraqi province Rawah Anbar, the soldier entered the cold water and surrendered his life in faith and obedience to God. The Chaplain explained that “it isn’t for salvation that we are baptized, but because of salvation” as the soldiers proceeded with the ceremony.

It was a cloudy day and the fog helped them stay hidden from the eyes of the enemies.

People say this video brought tears in their eyes. It’s very touching, indeed. You can take a look at it below. The excitement on the face of soldier Stephen truly says it all.

Ridiculously cute koala heads over to neighbors’ asking for kisses and cuddles by the pool

Humans’ relation with animals has always been a fascinating one. No matter how different we are from one another, we create bonds and many times depend on each other. And as much as this is true for the animals we have domesticated, those living in the wild can enter our world as well. Sometimes because they get lost and wander, and other times because they are curious to learn of the ‘strange’ creatures who own houses, and even have pools to chill in.

Source: YouTube / Lilly Pilly

Of course, in case you stumble upon a wild animal out of its natural habitat, you should likely alert an animal rescue center, a rehabilitation center, or a shelter. However, many times, until we get the chance to make a call, the animal is usually gone. But not this time. A sweet koala that entered one family’s house was apparently there to stay, at least for a while.

Source: YouTube / Lilly Pilly

The family that lives in Adelaide Hills, South Australia, spotted the koala coming down a tree and right into their backyard.

Is this going to turn into one of the cutest stories depicting unlike friendships? Well, who knows, lets see how it ends.

Source: YouTube / Lilly Pilly

The footage of the house’s surveillance camera is so clear that it gives the impression that we are in the yard too. And the feeling is pure gold.

The animal gets near the pool very carefully, as it has no idea what to expect. It explores the place and then decides to take a sip from the water. Although koalas don’t consume a lot of water, this guy is apparently very eager to try some and see what it tastes like.

Source: YouTube / Lilly Pilly

As it realizes it’s just water, the sweet koala places its hands inside and drinks some more.

Source: YouTube / Lilly Pilly

Then, a woman who is in the pool makes her way towards the guest that welcomed itself in her house. She goes really slowly because she doesn’t want to scare the curious animal.

As it turns out, the koala is very affectionate. It lets the woman give it water and drinks from her hands. Isn’t that a sight to remember? I wish I could experience such close encounter with a wild animal that friendly.

Source: YouTube / Lilly Pilly

Looking at these two bonding, one would assume they are a life-long friends and not just casual acquaintances.

Source: YouTube / Lilly Pilly

The most mesmerizing thing of all happens when the woman gets out of the water and stands face-to-face with the lovely animal. Believe it or not, they kissed by touching their noses.

Source: YouTube / Lilly Pilly

The koala knows the woman is kind and enjoys the petting on the nose and the face.

After the one-of-a-kind encounter, the koala went up the stairs and headed towards the house. Unfortunately, the camera cut off and we don’t know what it did next, although we are very curious to find that out.

This all looks so cute that our hearts melted. However, no matter how much you enjoyed the story, you should always be extra cautious in case you encounter a wild animal. Remember to always stay at a safe distance.

New baby represents a new beginning and hope. These loving sweethearts are so tiny but make such a huge change in the life of their parents and the whole family. And as everyone is anticipating to hold the sweet cuties in their arms and feel the distinctive baby smell that softens the heart, the siblings may not be that excited for meeting the new addition to the family. This is the reason why many parents are afraid whether their older kids would accept their baby brother or sister or not.

Feeling jealous is natural. The older children are used to getting all the attention, and now sharing their moms and dads with someone else could come to them as a shock. Luckily, mom Heather Conley from Pennsylvania and her husband don’t have to be worried at all as their 3-year-old daughter Molly is the best sibling ever.

When baby Cora was born, everyone was overjoyed. Her brother was happy, but not even close to how excited sister Molly was.

Sweet Molly can’t get enough of Cora and hold her tight while rubbing her cheek against her head. “You’re so cute,” the caring sister could be heard saying.

17-year-old takes the stage of “X Factor” and surprises all with his deep country voice and incredible smile

Many aspiring singers find the stage of the talent shows to be the only place where they can shine through their talent. And they are totally right. It is these shows that helped a lot of singers find their place under the stars and in the music industry. Beyonce, who is considered one of the world’s biggest superstars, found her way to fame through the talent show Star Search back in 1993. And she’s not the only one. In fact, a lot of famous names became celebrities thanks to shows such as The Voice, Britain’s Got Talent, The X Factor and Pop Stars.

Back in 2017, the judges of The X Factor were totally blown away by the incredible vocal of then 17-year-old Willie Jones. When they realized he would be performing Josh Turner’s Your Man, they probably thought it was a pretentious choice, but the moment Willie let his voice loose, he proved everyone wrong.

Simon Cowell is listening with his mouth open, and that speaks enough of just how incredibly talented this teenager is. What is interesting about Willie’s voice is that it sounds way too mature than it is. It’s deep and seasoned, and everyone agrees that he sounds phenomenal, if not perfect.

The video of Willie’s performance which has been seen over 10 million times is definitely a must watch. Check it out below.

When someone gives themselves the right to make decisions regarding crucial things in your life in your name, then it’s definitely the time for you to stand for yourself and put a stop.

What one groom-to-be shared on Reddit caused a stir among the users. He started his post explaining how his mother-in-law is deciding on everything about his wedding, and that includes the venue, the clothes, the menu, and a lot more. All this, sadly, led to the excitement over the planning to turn into a nightmare for him. What’s even worse, he’s wife-to-be is going along with everything her mom imposes on them.

“Her mom keeps stomping boundaries and changes any plans we come up with to have a ‘decent’ wedding and not let me ‘ruin’ it and embarrass her.” He then gave an example, writing: “My fiancée came to tell me last week that we will be making changes in terms of menu/invitation cards because her mom recommended other things instead of what we agreed on. According to her mom, I have no idea what a ‘good decent wedding’ looks like and wanted to save us (herself) from ’embarrassment.'”

However, what made him angry the most is that his fiancée was now asking for her niece to replace his 9-year-old sister as a flower girl.

“My sister’s is on cloud nine ever since she was told she will be the flower girl. She got her dress and so far she’s tried it on more than 5 times asking me when I’m going to have the wedding which is sweet,” he wrote and added how his little sis has “mild cerebral palsy but she’s functioning and does good at school.”

According to the bride and her mother, the groom’s sister was supposed to be a quest only and not given any role as she would do something embarrassing and might not behave during the wedding ceremony, although they are both aware the girl is well-behaved and way smarter than most kids her age. “I told her no not gonna happen,” he further explained. “Like I gave my parents and my sister my word. No way I’m going to make her upset and sad and let the niece take her place.”

He didn’t want to break his sister’s heart, especially because she was over the moon and was waiting for the wedding with anticipation. “We been arguing over this the whole week and I’m now supposed to call her and say okay but I refused and I’m standing my ground and wanting my sister to be the flower girl despite what others say because this offends me and my family.”

As expected, every user who stumbled upon this groom’s post agreed that it is his sister who should be the flower girl.

“NTA at all. Your sister isn’t just excited about wearing the dress, she’s excited about playing a role in your wedding. It would be unfair and ableist to take that away from her now. Stand up for your sister – she needs to know that you love her and respect her and that her disability doesn’t make her any less worthy. Make sure your fiancee understands that what she’s asking you to do is abhorrent. If she doesn’t see this, I’d honestly reconsider the wedding. There’s no excuse for bullying a child like this,” one Redditor wrote.

Another person wrote a pretty long comment, but it was definitely worth sharing it with you as it was the most popular of all.

“You need to sit your fiancee down, alone, and have a long conversation about her behavior, and that in no way at all is it acceptable for her mother to be acting like this, for your fiancee to let her walk all over you both, and most importantly that your fiancee is not ever going to speak about your sister like that again. Your sister is 9 years old. She is a young, impressionable child who has more than enough shit to deal with as it is, more than any child deserves to. Are you going to bring your fiancee into the family, around your sister, with her thinking she can treat your sister like some wild animal?”

He then continued: “Look, I’m never one to support the idea that a man ‘needs to check his woman.’ The phrase is disgusting. As a big brother though, and as a person, you need to give your fiancee a swift and definitive reality check. This is not her mother’s wedding, it’s your wedding too, and she does not demean your sister like that. Ever. NTA, but you will be if you just bend over to all of this heinous f**kery just because it’s easier than arguing with her. Three years down the line when MIL is running your lives and your wife is blaming you for it all you’ll be wishing you had fought back. Your relationship isn’t lost but you need to get back on the same page before you go any further.”

How would you react if you were in this groom’s situation?

If you are the person responsible for the maintenance of your home and you possess a bunch of tools and equipment, then you are aware that storing all that takes a lot of space and time. This is especially true for all the gadgets, machine, and appliances that come with extension cords.

School expels kids after other students’ parents complain of their mom’s OnlyFans account

Crystal Jackson from Sacramento, California, 44, is a mom of three boys who are all very good kids and excel at school. Unfortunately, all her three children were expelled from school after the parents of the rest of the students complained about this mom’s side job.

Namely, in an attempt to spice up her relationship with her husband, Crystal joined Only Fans and ended up earning around $150,000 a month. She goes by the name Tiffany Poindexter on the site.

As it turns out, the Catholic school her kids attended decided to tell them they are no longer welcomed. This came as a shock to the kids who can’t understand why they can no longer study together with their friends.

“We are incredibly shocked, upset and unsettled. We received an email at 8pm Sunday night saying our kids were no longer welcome at the school and they should not return from Monday,” Chrystal said as per LadBible. “We thought, ‘What are we supposed to do now?'”

Source: Jam Press

She explained to her kids that it wasn’t them the school didn’t like, and that it wasn’t their fault they were forbidden from attending it. Further, she said that it was her modeling that the school and the parents didn’t approve of.

According to LadBible, Crystal said: “They were very upset and cried over losing their friends. We were close to tears ourselves but you have to keep it together for them.”

“Our youngest didn’t understand why he couldn’t continue to go to school – we had to explain that we are all not allowed back, which was heartbreaking. Our children still have work in their desks and homework they needed to hand in – it’s just awful,” she added.

Crystal’s husband, Chris, also spoke of the situation the family have found themselves in and said it was unfair of the school to give them the news that their children were expelled late on Sunday evening. He believes they should have been given at least a week to prepare their kids of what was coming.

“The school’s decision has just ripped the kids up from their roots and given them no time to adjust. They could have told us to stay away, have someone else come to collect the kids from school until the end of the year and then we leave,” Chris said as per LadBible.

Further, Crystal added: “Do you punish kids for the sins of their parents? If a parent commits a crime does their child get kicked out of school? No, they don’t. We haven’t even committed a crime!

“It is so unfair to our children – our kids are really good kids, the teachers say they are. And we volunteer at least 100 hours at that school every year, a lot of the teachers really like us, we got on really well with them.

“It’s disturbing in the sense that we have always supported the school and gone above and beyond for them – we’ve gone from best friends to ‘blood enemies’.”

The greatest concern these parents have is that other Catholic schools may refuse to accept their kids for the same reasons their former school expelled them.

To all the medical workers out there: “Thank you for everything you do!”

I am sure that each and every one of you is feeling gratitude towards the nurses, the doctors, and the rest of the hospital staff who are working long shifts and barely take breaks from treating patients, especially during the recent period when the coronavirus is spreading like crazy and a huge number of people are in anticipation of receiving the so much wanted vaccine.

Well, doctors and nurses don’t have it easy, that’s for sure, but they still find the time to cheer their patients and the rest of us up. Just recently, a number of videos showing medical workers dancing in hopes of lifting our spirits up emerged and people love them.

Dr. Jason L. Campbell from Oregon is just one of them. His video went viral and has been seen by around 300,000 people so far.

Dr. Arup Senapati, who is a surgeon in Assam, has also posted a video of him dancing. In the caption of his “performance,” Dr. Senapati wrote how he learned all the moves from his favorite actor, Hrithik Roshan. Once the video spread like a wildfire, the actor retweeted it and wrote: “Tell Dr Arup I’m gonna learn his steps and dance as good as him someday in Assam. Terrific spirit.”

A number of other doctors and hospital staff joined this “challenge” of posting dancing videos in hopes of reminding us that things are going to be just fine. Among them are the medical workers from Jefferson Hospital in Philadelphia.

The staff at an NHS hospital in Birmingham, England, also went viral. Their TikTok video was a huge success and reached a huge number of people.

In another video, six cardiology nurses, also from Birmingham, danced to ‘Drank & Drugs’ by Lil Klenie and stole hundreds of hearts.

Jill San Juan, a nurse at Texas Medical Center, showed some awesome moves dancing on “All for You” by Janet Jackson. Along with the video, she wrote: “Keeping our spirits up at the hospital! Please RT/tag show @JanetJackson She’s getting us through rough times! I love you J! #janfam #JanetJackson.”

Janet Jackson has seen the video and wrote back: “I love you too and thank you for all that you are doing!”

We hope the pandemic will soon end and all those who are on the front line in the fight against it will finally take the break they deserve.

Christina Ozturk is a Russian model who is planning on having the largest family in the world. At the age of just 23, this beauty is a mom of 11 children. I know many would say this is too much, especially those who find it hard to cope with raising even a single kid, or maybe two or three. What is even more impressive is that Christina says she won’t stop until she and her wealthy, hotel-owning husband have maybe around 105 children together. Yes, you heard that right.

However, Christina only gave birth to one of her bundles of joy and had the rest through surrogate mothers. At the moment, she and her husband, Galip Ozturk, live in Batumi, Georgia where surrogacy is legal.

Speaking of his stunning wife, Galip says: “She is so easy to be with; she always has a smile on her lips and yet at the same time is shy and mysterious. She was the kind of wife I always wanted for myself, an uncut diamond where I saw what a pure and kind heart she had.”

According to Christina herself, having a lot of children is what makes her happy. She has always wanted a huge family and was over the moon when her husband told her that he wanted the same.

“At the moment, I have 10 children with the latest addition, Olivia, who arrived at the end of last month. I gave birth to my eldest daughter Vika myself, six years ago. The rest of the children are genetically ours from my husband and I, but were carried by surrogates,” the young mom says.

Christina is very popular on the social media where she posts a lot of photos of her little ones.

Although she mentioned the number 105 during an occasion, Christina now says: “I don’t know how many they will eventually be, but we certainly don’t plan to stop at 10. We just not ready to talk about the final number. Everything has its time.” 

We wish this beautiful family only the best in the years to come. They all look so adorable together.

New Jersey plumber and his family drive over 1,700 miles to fix burst pipes in Texas

Stories about people who are more than willing to lend a helping hand to others, especially nowadays when humanity is struggling to cope with the pandemic, is what gives us hopes for a brighter future.

As the weather gone bad and parts of the country were hit by snow storms, many household were left without power and freezing. You probably remember the story of Texan Raymond Garcia who spent his days fixing people’s pipes. Well, this is yet another uplifting story that will warm your heart.

Andrew Mitchell from New Jersey is an experienced plumber. He knew that his services are much needed in the snow struck areas, and although it meant driving over 25 hours from his hometown to Texas, he was willing to do it. What’s most, he didn’t undertake his mission all by himself. His wife, Kisha Pinnock, and their 2-year-old son Blake made him company. The family loaded their truck with a bunch of tools and headed to Texas.

People from the affected areas wait for weeks before someone comes in and fixes their pipes. In the meantime, they lack running water, which makes normal functioning very hard.

Kisha’s brother, Isaiah Pinnock, who is Andrew’s apprentice, accompanied the family as well.

Kisha’s sister who lives in Houston made connections with people who were desperately looking for a plumber.

“By the time we got here there was already about four or five jobs lined up from my sister, and we just hit those first and then everything after that has really just been referrals from like the initial customers, like their friends and family,” Kisha said, as per CNN. “Since we’ve been here, it has really been nonstop.”

The family is planning on staying in Texas for at least two more weeks in hopes of helping even more people.

9-year-old girl called “too fat,” “too ugly,” “too stupid” by bullies – Her mom is sharing her story

Although it’s the year of 2021 already and it looks like we’ve been doing our best to make things right, humanity still has a long way to go when it comes to eradicating bullying.

Sadly, being abused, called names, and not accepted because of different reasons, such as your looks or your points of view, is not that uncommon. Bullying can take place anywhere and it can affect people from all ages, but when young children who are helpless at defending themselves experience it, they can be affected for life.

Nicole O’Shea is a mother of a 9-year-old girl. This woman is trying really hard to help her daughter put up with the bullying she experiences on a daily basis, but it looks like no matter what she does, she fails each time.

Recently, she posted a touching letter at Love What Matters, and it touched the hearts of many. This is what she wrote:

“She’s 9. Nine years old and already learning what it feels like to have her heart broken by the unkindness of the world. She already knows what it feels like to have her peers comment on her body, her face, her clothes, her family.

She’s been called too stupid, too fat, too ugly, too poor, too loud, too huggy, too wild, too messy. She’s been uninvited because she’s not pretty enough, skinny enough, happy enough, funny enough, liked enough.

Those words don’t hurt me because I know they’re not true. I know she’s enough. What hurts me is how broken those words make her. What kills me is how she believes the naysayers of the world instead of her mama, the person who knows her best.

And that, my friends is why we HAVE to learn to love ourselves.

These babies are watching us. They’re learning how to love themselves by watching how we love our own selves. They CANNOT hear us when we tell them they’re enough because they’re too busy hearing us tell ourselves we’re not.

I vow to erase self-hate from my life. I promise to learn to appreciate who and what I am without exception. I will love me. Because me loving me is the only way I can teach her to love her.“

Nicole wants others to imagine how it would feel like if it were their kids in her daughter’s place.

“If this hit you in some kind of way, I know it’s because you’re picturing your own kids and the struggles they’ve seen. I am one mom of one daughter and our story is not unique. It’s the story of every mother and the daughters they’re raising.“

But we aren’t here to dwell in the heartache. We’re here to breed confidence and resiliency in the hearts of our babies. With that in mind, I want to hear from the mamas and the aunties and the grandmas and the teachers, and all the women who have little girls looking up to them …

I want you to picture that little woman you’re helping to shape and promise me right now you’re going to start loving yourself the way you want her to love herself.”

We truly hope that no other child or even an adult ever experiences what this 9-year-old has. We need to fight against bullying together, because no matter how harmless and fun it seems to those who practice it, it can destroy their victims’ self-confidence for life.
