Seeking to Get Pregnant
Jarvis and Sadie Sampson had aspirations of becoming parents to each other. They used fertility treatments and ovulation testing in an attempt to conceive naturally. They hoped and prayed for a positive pregnancy test for 14 long months, but every month brought despair.
Getting Medical Assistance
Sadie and Jarvis went to the physicians in a desperate attempt to get answers. Sadly, the only advice given to them was to try losing weight. Sadie lost 28 pounds after undergoing gastric surgery in the hopes of improving their chances of becoming pregnant. However, their desire to have a biological kid remained unfulfilled even after they lost the weight.
A Text That Completely Shifted Everything
Sadie and Jarvis received a text message that would permanently change their life just when they were beginning to lose hope. A friend inquired if they would think about providing temporary care for an infant in need of foster care. The pair hesitated for a moment but then consented. They had no idea that this choice would usher in the most amazing chapter of their life.
Fostering to Adoption
A brief foster arrangement quickly developed into an adoption opportunity. Sadie and Jarvis were deemed the ideal parents for the child by the biological mother. They went from being childless to becoming parents over night.
Baby Ezra, welcome to the world!
At just 4 pounds, 5 ounces, their son Ezra Lee was born prematurely at 33 weeks gestation. Sadie can still clearly remember seeing him for the first time, wrapped up in a white blanket with blue and pink patterns. He was incredibly cute even with his little stature and the difficulties he had as an early baby.
Accepting Love Without Conditions
After posting about their happiness on social media, Sadie and Jarvis were flooded with messages of support. In just three days, friends and strangers bought 55 of the 72 things on their registry. When their adoption of Ezra was officially finalized in October 2020, they commemorated the occasion with a sweet family photo session. They wore matching t-shirts with the slogan “Families Don’t Have to Match.”
Growing Their Adoring Family
Through embryo donation, Sadie and Jarvis were able to expand their family in 2021 when they welcomed twin girls, Journee and Destinee. Their family was complete with these lovely blessings, demonstrating the limitless nature of love.
Spreading the Love Message
Sadie, Jarvis, and their three kids are a remarkable family that defies social conventions and expectations in love. They think that the unshakable links of love, rather than appearances or DNA, define family. Their moving tale is a potent reminder that love knows no bounds and that families don’t actually have to match.
This amazing family has so much love and knowledge to impart to the world. Let’s tell everyone about their inspirational story.
The Importance of Kindness and Acceptance
I learned early on the importance of respecting people for who they are, despite differences. I think most people can agree that it is a basic moral lesson. Regretfully, there are still those who do not understand the value of basic acceptance and kindness.
A recent horrific event at Disney World brought to light the abhorrent depths of some people’s conduct. A brawl broke out at Belle Vue Lounge, a bar within the Boardwalk Inn, on January 25, leading to the arrest of Brent George, a 61-year-old man. Brent claimed to have been attacked by a nearby family he had been drinking with when police came. He had cuts and bruises on his face.
But more research told a different story. According to the family, a drunken Brent had come up to their table and started making fun of their sister, who has Down syndrome, by mimicking her sporadic grunts. Brent shoved the girl’s mother as she defended her daughter. A family member named Wesley Golberg attempted to step in, but Brent slapped him instead. Wesley and Brent got into a physical fight as a result, which ended when a bystander came to Wesley’s aid and took Brent out of the area.
The police opted to take into account all sides of the argument before taking Brent into custody and accusing him of four first-degree violence crimes. His plea to the charges was not guilty.

The internet was incensed at Brent’s actions as word of the incident proliferated online. Many more showed their support for the family by denouncing the attack on Wesley and the girl’s mother as well as the belittling of someone with a disability. It’s evident that a lot of people thought Brent’s actions were wrong and should have resulted in consequences.
This event should serve as a reminder of how important it is to show compassion and kindness to other people. In addition to being upsetting, making fun of and belittling someone due to their differences can also escalate into violent confrontations. Let’s work to make the world a more caring and welcoming place where everyone is respected.
