Well this story made this cynical old queen feel all tearful. Maybe it was early hay fever. Never too sure:

Brought tears to my eyes too Trent. He was a gorgeous little boy and has grown into a fine looking young man. I bet his parents are proud of him and he of them. A lovely story for Easter and as you say, heartwarming.

Well done Danny and Pete: their story is a real tonic in these miserable times. Kevin certainly landed on his feet.

Very sweet, kind family - amazing parents and amazing son. Inspirational story, Thanks Trent - I enjoyed reading it.

I like the fact that they have carefully not made a "big thing" of the many negatives they must have experienced from people like those who support Trump.

Well done Dads!

A most interesting story. What a brilliant Judge to enable one abandoned child to have a caring and fulfilling home life.

Lovely story, and what an astute judge, as Susan says.

Who knows, maybe the Judge is gay too!

I wonder if, now that the story is widely known, the natural mother will make herself known and fill in the back story of her circumstances, where she gave birth, why she travelled from wherever she gave birth to that station and so on. Probably wiser not to? I don't know.

This might depend upon her age at the time of the birth, her parent's attitude, her financial situation, her marital status!

So many possible reasons to keep quiet even after so long. Maybe she is just grateful the someone played good Samaritan!
