Bella takes over... I want to share my journey to finding myself and how you can overcome anything you go through. This is my foster care and adoption journey. I pray that it helps someone know that they are not alone.
The proceeds from this video will be going to Bella and a portion will be donated to making a change in the foster care community.

I’m 18 minutes in and can’t stop crying. This explains why Bella is so mature and humble. Children should NEVER have to grow up like this or that fast, she never had a normal childhood and it’s so infuriating to know that everyone failed her before she got adopted. If anyone’s reading this and you have kids at home (even if they’re not yours) please be a light for them and never allow them to grow up like that. Bella, if you ever read this, we’re all SO proud of you and we love y’all.

Crystal once talked on a video about the light inside of a child that has had trauma. She talked about the muck and yuck that dulls that light and basically how you have to work away at the layers to eventually let them shine bright. I have always remembered her talking about it as i too was a foster child that eventually aged out after 8 years in the system. I am 46 now and finally feel like I can shine. I love that this family is so kind and loving to their children and they get a chance to shine so much younger. Bella honey, you definitely shine bright beautiful girl. I am so glad that you and your brothers were blessed by being gifted this family ❤️❤️ I love that you get to be a sister, daughter, niece and granddaughter and you no longer have to be a childhood mom. I have loved seeing you bloom. You are like a bright sunflower that bloomed and shines and you stand tall. Thank you for your story.

I still pray you've had someone who adopted you into their heart that you are able to call family❤!! Yes, I do remember watching that vlog. I have to say that Cyrstal and Arron, both, are such a wonderful blessing to ALL their children!!! Thank you, Crystal, for giving Bella the push she needed, to be able to open up and become the beautiful, wonderful young lady she is!!! You all are amazing!!! These children are learning how to be loved, cherished, and honored as part of a real forever family! God is oh, sooo good! I know many may say, if God is sooo good, then WHY did these children have to go through all of things they went through. In my opinion, I believe we all go through stuff, some worse than others. I believe God allows us to go through these "challenges" first and foremost, to turn to Him. Cry out to Him, and Depend on Him! Also, it is a teaching tool for everyone involved. So we can all help one another become better people! God bless you all Angee😇

I know there are so many children out there who go through terrible trauma and it is so upsetting to know adults and school peers can be so cruel. I found myself tearing up multiple times and now I think back to older videos and how much they must have been going through in the beginning that didn't really connect until now. I am so proud of the three of you and all of the kids for the strength they have shown with their own issues. Sometimes you forget where these kids came from because of the positivity we see in the videos, but it is so nice to see how much their lives have changed for the better.

I don’t think there could be a more perfect family out there for you! To have such a mix of kids who have all been through their own struggles, and then parents who actively support their children in whatever way they need…absolutely amazing. I’m so happy that you’re doing well now because you have proven to yourself that you can get really really depressed and then pull yourself out of it and get to the other side. That’s a life lesson that you can keep with you forever as you will always go through ups and downs. Also keep in mind that just because those downs in the future might not be the same “level” as you have seen in the past, it doesn’t make them any less important or any less difficult. I hope you continue this upward positivity! Thanks for sharing!!

Bella, I'm 27 now and I went through an eating problem/"emo phase" and depression as a teenager. I'm telling you Bella, that you're growth has been insane! The fact you've put this out there and you're still struggling.. is proof that you've come so far sweetheart! On behalf of the entire world- thank you for being the best role model for not just your brothers but for everyone who needs to be grateful. Bella, its not always easy.. there will be many downs. But that's exactly why the good times will feel so great. And why you're such a wise, grateful and perfect girl! Throw the haters out and Keep pushing through Bella!! So much love from London, UK.

The incredibly strong individuals in this family never cease to amaze me every time I hear them speak about their stories and experiences in life. Bella, you and your brothers are such an amazing addition to the crazy pieces. I have been watching and admiring them for years and I just love how easily you all fit in with these amazing people. You are incredibly brave and courageous for 15 years old. One day you are going to make an amazing mother if you chose to do so and they will be incredibly blessed to have you. The way you spoke through your story and gave detail to some of the traumatic experiences speaks true to your mature character. You had to grow up so fast at such a young age. The blessings you have received in being adopted by your mom and dad make me feel like there’s still hope and good people in this world. I pray you continue to receive all the support you need and thrive in life. Thank you for being so vulnerable, your story may give many others some hope for a better future and better days to come.

Bella to see you from when you first came to the crazy pieces, to now, is amazing. You’ve opened up so much and you are so beautiful. You are one of the most bravest young ladies I’ve got to see on KZfaq and your brothers will always remember that you saved them from one horrible situation and started the process to get you guys to your forever family. The look of relief on your face when the adoption became final was the first thing anyone noticed, because we saw when you knew that your brothers were safe and you helped get them there. I know that you’re still having trouble with mental health, and just know that your internet older cousin Doris has your back.

So proud of you Bella for telling your story! I don’t think you have a true idea of how many people mainly children you are helping by doing this. You’re living proof that tomorrow can be better than today. Stay strong as hard as the times were it didn’t break you and it led you to the path that you needed to be led to and that’s you’re a true family! I don’t think you have any more doubt about yourself anymore but if you do know that thousands and thousands of people are telling you different, we’re telling you you’re wanted and you’re needed and you are loved by an amazing family. I personally do not know any of you, but I have been watching the stories a few years now and yours broke my heart one moment I am in tears for what you endured, and then in tears of pure joy for you. I’m adopting myself nothing will ever replace that, this family choose you and your brothers and my family chose me. I can’t find a better love and want my family than that! Thank you for sharing your in my prayers. Your whole family are in my prayers.

You're amazing, Bella. You had to be strong for so long just to literally keep others alive... But you're safe now. You can breathe a little, cry, scream, or whatever you need.

So glad Bella recognizes her adjustment disorder this young. I have complex ptsd from a childhood and lifetime of trauma and before finding the right therapist, I didn’t recognize MANY triggers. People being slightly intoxicated around me, I’d always get in a really bad mood. Being called a dipshit, even jokingly, because it was a word one of my abusers used a lot, and so many other seemingly irrelevant things that I never even realized were triggers. One being adjustment and new surroundings.

I started watching the crazy pieces many years ago and their family and stories have really changed my life. When I started watching I wanted to be a lawyer but I wanted to fight for children who didn't have parents to fight for them, but I didn't think that was enough so I decided to change and now I am in university trying to get a bachelors in social work. I know one person can't change the whole system but I believe one person has to at least try. When someone asks me what do I want to be in the future I tell them ' I want to be a mom'. I want to be a mother to those who do not have parents, I want to be a mother to as many as I can. I want to love as many children as I can and make them feel loved. I would like to be a social worker and a mom in the future.

Bella, you are the definition of a beautiful soul and person. I am really glad you landed in a good place. About the bullies, online or otherwise, they aren’t in a good place. They lash out and hurt because they are hurt and/or jealous. They reveal themselves when they do. So keep in mind, they are speaking their ugly and has nothing to do with who you really are. Hold your head high.

As a survivor from child abuse myself I commend you on sharing your story. You are truly a brave young lady to take the time and the strength to do what you just did here. Your pain and suffering you endured does not go unnoticed. I validate every emotion you just shared as hard as that was it must be somewhat if a relief to express yourself and get that off your chest . You are a survivor. I'm grateful for every word you spoke and I'm going to take your testimony and carry it in my heart always..so I can stay strong like you ..and feel hopeful for a better tomorrow and I can live my best life. May God bless you always . ... ...
