"Higher, dad!" You can really tell she loves him and that they have a good relationship 😭🥺

Who dislikes this? Seriously? This child would've lived in foster care continuing to be abused or worse. This man loves her and she'll have a great life. A better chance at life and out of the trauma.

I'm not crying, it's just raining exclusively on my eyes.

"Higher Daddy." EVERYBODY LOVED THAT

When I was 16 our family took in a boy who had been in my mother's classroom. He stayed with us for the next 10 years. I love him.

She's got a new mommy and daddy who will love her forever. I hope many other kids will get this too.

We adopted our 3rd child when he was 8. He completed our family in ways that we never knew possible. Helping adopted children feel safe, loved, and secure are the most important factors in adoption.

She looks JUST like my daughter, only older. It makes me want to cry just thinking of somebody wanting to hurt an innocent child like that. If I had the chance I would become a foster parent in a second.

That old saying, “Anyone can be a Father but it takes someone special to be a Daddy!”

My husband and I adopted our now 17 year old son when he was seven. Such an amazing decision! ❤️

I adopted my oldest daughter when she was 4. She is now 22 and she has grown up to be an amazing young woman, I'm proud of her in every way possible. She has accomplished and continues to accomplish so much in life. More than I did at that age I tell you. She got married, bought a Condo, a new car, is working full time and going to college to be a Surgical Tech. Proud Daddy over here! My kids are a gift from God. A special gift so I know that he loves me no matter what.

This man is a natural-born parent. He provides, protects, and loves his family and even works to do the same for his community. Great man!

So many people would love to have children while other's throw them away like trash.

When she says "higher dad!" Warms your heart.

My sister had an unwanted baby before she was married and our parents plus family didn't want anything to do with it. I found out shortly before that time that i was unable to have kids so when she gave birth, i decided to adopt the baby. The whole view on the baby changed from my family when i adopted her, as they put it shes not a "burden" anymore. She was never a burden in my eyes, she didnt ask to be born..she is perfection in everyway possible. She turned 2 yesterday and i know that everything up to this point was for a reason. She is the amazing little girl that came into my life and made it!

God bless this man and his family. What a blessing for that sweet baby.

This guy is a true American hero.

Being someone who grew up in abusive household this made me cry. I hope they're all doing well.

She is probably going to want to be a hero when she grows up too

"Higher, dad!" That melted my heart she knows that he is now her forever father

He and his wife are the type of people who should have children, they know children are a gift that should never be abused but cherished.

In the passed 15 years he's said it to his wife so much.. Shows how much pain he comes across everyday..

God bless this man and his family for saving this precious child.

As an abuse survivor and adopted son of a career police officer myself, l applaud this officer for his act of kindness!

This officer is no man.... he is an Angel 😇

I've been planning on becoming a foster parent for abused kids. My husband agreed with me.

You can see how much she loves him, and how secure she feels with him, in the picture of her hugging him. You can also see that she's a smart girl with a lot of personality. Incredibly adorable. I'm so glad that she ended up getting a family that loves her. All children should have that.

Aww she's so cute, her happiness makes me happy.. Your a great man brother

She is safe and happy now. He was meant to be her dad.

God bless this man and his family. Literally have tears running down my face watching this video

God put that officer on that call that night for a reason. He was meant to back up his fellow officer to meet that baby! Everything happens for a reason & his reason was to save that little girl's life! For him & his family to ensure she is loved & know's this the rest of her life!!🙏🏼🙏🏼💖💖💖💖

When I was only 4, my cousin and his wife would bring a little boy (also 4 at the time) to visit my parents and myself, at the time, I never understood why my cousins had a child with them that I knew wasnt theirs. years later I came to understand ut was due to the abuse he suffered from his biological parents. People that help children, deserve every bit of recognition.

Wish all the poor children were all lucky in foster care

I’m going to bed with a huge smile. God bless you all.

When officers aren’t being crucified, this is the length some go to help others even When they don’t have to

Hopefully the little darling doesn't remember too much of her early life. I love these adoption stories. My sister and brother-in-law adopted 2 sisters who came from an abusive home. They provided love support, discipline, guidance, structure and worked through a myriad of challenges. Today they're both happily married; one has 2 boys and the other is expecting their first.

Remember stories like these when you want to paint all cops with one brush! God bless this man and his family! I was an abused child who had to grow up in the foster care system and never got my own family. I was mostly in group homes. It was not a good life. He rescued this girl from a cold life that would have had no love and more abuse. God bless his heart!

Thank you for giving her a safe home I would have given anything to have had this outcome happy she has you all

DEFINITELY A “HIGHER FATHER” !!! Wow!, what a family to accept this hugh responsibility!!

This made me so happy. I was a victim of abuse and even though people knew about it, no one intervened.. Please, if you see something, say something..give a child a chance to have a future and live in a safe and loving environment .❤

When a kid in her situation pets your hand, they're telling you they know you're not going to hurt them like other adults have and they will for sure look after you when you grow old. 💗

He was being her daddy already long before it became official. ❤️

The tears came on when she said "higher daddy."

This is adorable, I love how he didn't even think twice about bringing her home

3:26 I love how you can her shout, "Higher Dad!". She really has a family now.

My adoptive family continued my abuse. I'm so glad this child's story is going to be much more different 💜

We need more humans, of every race and nation like you and your family sir, until we're all one human race!

This story is so heartwarming. I can’t imagine what state her life would be in if he did not take her in. And his family is so understanding. I’m so glad this all worked out. What a lucky little girl

Look at her face omg she is soo precious who the fu$k could hurt a baby ughh i love this man God bless him and his family

Warms my heart to know that one less child is suffering at the hand of an unworthy “parent”, and has found happiness with a happy and stable family. ❤️

II was a victim of a violent crime when I was 4. My daddy adopted me and he was a state trooper for 4 decades. Best man I ever knew

A great family, a No1 father and a brave girl who will thrive and smile for the rest of her life ❤❤

Wow, a man with such a big heart, there are men out there that don't think twice or worry about their own children. This is special.

We took in my nephew at age 8 he is now 21. I will gladly take in another child or children again. So many needing a loving stable home.

Police stories like this do not get enough exposure. All we seem to hear is 'defund the Police' but there are many great human beings in the force.

It made me cry to hear this story. I was abused as a child and had it rough. I'm 59 now and on my own . It's a miracle I survived .

How can someone hurt someone so innocent? It breaks my heart to know there are little babies like her being treated that way. What a great man, and family👍

Hopefully her life will be safer and will be full of life free of abused.

She has so much energy man her little smile is so contagious, so happy she's with this beautiful family

Anyone can be a mother and a father, but it takes very special people to be a mum and dad! When she said "higher dad" just proves it! The love and happiness you see here is just a testament of how great this whole family is. The bond she now has with him is now unbreakable. Thank you for helping this amazing girl

Glad she is safe

She petted his hand 💙💙💙

when she was on the swing and was saying "higher daddy" it made me cry, i've always thought of adoption when im older, taking a kid in and giving them the love that they deserve and this has me set, i know when im holder i will at least adopt one kid and give them a family.

You and your wife bring tears to my eyes, literally. We need more people like you.

She found her very own wrecked Ralph that’s cute storyline

I love that she happily calls him "Dad". I don't know which of her biological parents was abusing her, and it does not matter, because they do not deserve her or any other child. All they deserve is prison.

I love this story. I wasn’t adopted by the police that saved me from my situation, but I remember how loving and caring they all were.

How can anybody ever want to hurt such a sweet, innocent little person? I will never understand. How can people be so cruel, even to their own children? It breaks my freakin' heart. I am so glad she is safe and in a loving home now. It's literally the best possible outcome for the girl. I'm so happy for her.

Im a CASA advocate. I highly recommend everyone reach out and see how you can be an advocate for children in the foster system in your town. It is so rewarding and much help is needed for these kids

Why hasn’t this video got more likes!? I was a foster child many times but not once in the uk did a police officer rescue me nor my brothers! In fact the police missed many things even took us back when we tried to escape the abuse 😤.... god bless this man and his family..

I wish I had someone like him in my life when I was dealing with this kinda stuff. All I can say is one day I want to get out of poverty so I can help other kids the way I needed. No kid deserves to be hurt like that or feel unloved or unwanted. Every child deserves a family that loves them. The unfortunate reality is there are so so many kids that are in these types of situations and it gets over looked.

It just proves you do not have to go to heaven to be with an angel.

This is a real man, going out of his way to give an innocent child a loving home with open arms, Godbless this gentleman & his family, I wish the little girl & her new family 👪 the best of luck❤

How lucky and blessed this little girl was. Now she’s gonna have two loving parents. God bless this family of real Christians.

What a wonderful family. He is not only an amazing police officer but he’s a true hero!

You can tell he already loves her deeply❤

If there were more people like this guy in the world it’d be a much better world. Any person who hurts or neglects there children do not deserve to breathe air. Thank god for people like this

I live in Kingman ,Arizona and a few years our beloved pet dog “Rowdy “ passed away from old age ! We decided to have him cremated ! So my daughter and I took his body to a veterinary hospital where they handled this service ! When we arrived a Policeman of the K9 patrol arrived the same time we did ! His k9 partner had an injured paw that needed attention ! The 👮🏽 officer took his dog in to the veterinarians and in just a few moments he was back and carried our little Rowdy into the office ! I and my daughter greatly appreciated his kindness . I can’t remember his name but I remember his kindness and there will always be a warm place in my heart for him ! I wish to thank him and all Policemen and Policewomen for their Service to our town and State and to all other Police officers for their service to Mankind ! Thank You and may God watch over you and keep you safe ! 👍❤️😇

You can see the love he has for her I’m so glad she found a family and one that trying loves her

I know I'm six months late on this story but this is beyond awesome 👍 I don't have the words either... It's just incredible. Kids are so precious 🤗

I love how this family embraced a child and made her part of their already loving family❤️

Arizona is my future home. Having kind people in a community and showing love and kindness for others is definitely my cup of tea. Thank you for taking care of the child and thank you for your service.

No I’m not crying, it’s just allergies its YOU who is crying! 😭

Bless this man and his family, he is a real man.

Why don't we hear more about this on MSM. This is beautiful i cried im a tuff man. This was beautiful

This 👮‍♂️officer literally saved this precious child's life👼 Her guardian angel, a lieutenant no less, has rescued her from becoming another statistic lost in the system. Faith in humanity has been restored💖, well done👍

He's Dad to her, she looks so well adjusted and happy. What a beautiful little family. I wish all outcomes for children were like this.

It's so nice to see her fit in so well with this family. Her success means everything to this family

"higher daddy" I swear that little girl is going to be a great person now and shows she forgot the horrible serpents that once abused her

i want to adopt kids. i hope i can get my life together so i can do that, i keep getting adoption videos recommended to me and it feels like what im meant to do.

You probably saved generations of people from the darkness. Good on you officer 🫡

People like this man and his family are the core meaning of the word “human”. Saving a child from a life of no love is something that touches the heart deeply. Thanks for stepping up to the plate and giving so unselfishly of yourselves. GOD bless you all.

These two crossed paths for a reason, she needed safety and love and he wanted to be dad to her. It must have touched him greatly, it’s nice to see he has a darn huge heart

THIS IS SO LOVELY, NO CHILD SHOULD HAVE TO GO THROUGH ANY KIND OF ABUSE ( WELL DONE TO THIS GUY AND HIS FAMILY)

You can see that the little girl is confident and well adjusted from this clip.....thanks to the good loving and stable environment from papa cop & family!! Very happy to see that the once sad story of an abused baby girl, with a presumably negative future ahead, has been turned into the happy story of a well adjusted kiddo whose future is wide open! She can do and be anything her heart desires with the right tools!!! Love a fairytale ending ♡

You can see the special bond that the Officer has with the little girl, new clothes her own bed - safety with good adoptive Mother and Father and even a sister and brother. You sir have just changed this child's life. Thank you for your kindness and big heart.

Some people are just different in the best way possible. This whole family, are those people. 🥰

Omg this brought tears to my eyes. God bless this police officer... God bless you n your family...

I'm not crying, you're crying. What an amazing family.

I was adopted and the only thing I ever worried about was my 2 younger sisters the whole time. I was so lucky that we found Great parents and this man is one of them in my eyes. Glad to see a happy ending. Thank you for your lovingly kind soul.
