After receiving a phone call from Bella's daycare that she was feeling under the weather, I'm taking you through a day in my life as a single foster dad caring for my little one while she's not feeling well.
I'll be showing you how I prepare Bella's favorite meal and keep her entertained while I work from home. As a single foster dad, taking care of a sick child can be overwhelming, but I'll be sharing my tips and tricks for making it through the day with ease.
Join me on this journey as I navigate this challenging but rewarding experience of being a single foster dad.

I can watch you all day if I had time. Your voice is so comforting and soothing. My Dad passed in 2018,and you remind me of him in ways. He was very patient,kind,loving and always thinking of his kids. I'm a grandmother now,I'll be 60 next month,but I learned so much from my parents,not only how to be a good parent,but an amazing grandparent. Children are watching everything you do,and your demeanor and actions will affect them forever. Please keep being a wonderful human and a beautiful Dad. You're a true inspiration for us all to do better and enjoy life. ❤❤

Dude,you're such an amazing human and DAD, not just father. Any able male can be a father, but it takes a special man with love and joy in their hearts to be a dad or daddy. Give the kids a big hug for me and please don't ever change.

I was a daycare director - teacher. Our rule was 'one hand on the baby at ALL times. For our two's and under we had our own clothes which they wore and it meant their own cIean clothes were there to wear home. We also used our own cloth nappies. This was in the 90's before disposable nappies. The trick was to have everything ready before putting the baby on the table. We had 15 children aged three and under, and never had any problems. Change tables come with safety straps, now.

You are an amazing Dad to all your foster kids. Please do not go outside while baby is napping. Unless her oldest foster brother is home.

Peter I absolutely adore you ❤️ I am from Philadelphia, 39 years old, have 4 children (17, 14, 7, & 6 years old. My 2 oldest boys I had raised, but then unfortunately fell into using drugs(and I know you know exactly what comes after that). But in my addiction I had my 2 youngest children (my 1st girl, and another boy). I just new that I couldn't, and wouldn't take care of them properly. And it wasn't fair. So I put them both up for adoption. And they are absolutely blessed with 2 wonderful, loving families. Who also get together once in awhile for them to play and see one another. And I just see how amazing, genuine, selfless etc... you are. Good Bless You & your village 🙏❤

Soy madre de un hijo estupendo. Aunque le pude abrazar por primera vez cuando tenía casi cuatro años. La espera fue más larga que los nueve meses, que es el tiempo que una madre tarda en tener en sus brazos a su hijo. Yo también le escribí un libro de cuentos mientras le esperaba. Cada Navidad que estuvimos separados por más de 8000 km le escribía un cuento. Siempre estuvo en mi corazón. A veces en la noche salia al jardín y me tomaba un té verde....si hacía viento y movía los árboles, le decía Viento vuela hasta dónde esté mi hijo, dile que lo amo, que sea fuerte, que iré a buscarlo, dale un beso en la frente y abrazo. Que nunca se sienta sólo y triste, porque lo oigo llorar y el corazón se me rompe. Dile que es un león fuerte y poderoso y su madre lo encontrará. Así fue, años más tarde. Cuando pudimos encontrarnos y gritó MAMA! Todos los que estaban alrededor nuestro no pudieron contener las lágrimas. Hay hijos que nacen del corazón, y sólo tenemos que encontrarlos.

I love what you do for these children ❤️ 😊!! I have a question: Did you leave the child in the vehicle when you went into the post office? If so, you should change that habit . It's very dangerous!! Even for one minute, she could be taken. It's worth the effort to bring her in with you. P.S. I watch the commercials (I do not like watching them) so that you can make a bit more money from your videos. Keep loving those darlings like they've never known before 😊❤❤❤❤!!

I'm just watching this video for the first time. I remember in the 60s through the 90s, when a child was sick, they couldn't return to school or daycare without a doctor's note. When a doctors note was presented, the information was verified before the child was allowed around any children. In the days of covid, I would think they would have a policy like this or a stricter one. Edit: Also, in school, if a child was exposed to a sick child, that child also needed a doctor's note. Also back then a lot of doctor's offices accepted walk in patients.

Hey Peter. I don't know if I hear incorrectly, but you said you could walk the dogs alone if Bella was sleeping at the house? Does that mean you leave her alone? I certainly hope not. I don't think you would but if this is something you do, please don't. Very, very dangerous.
