Boy’s adorable reaction to being adopted is going viral

He's a little DOTE

Just LOOK at his little face.

Michael Brown was first fostered by Dezhianna Brown and her family back in 2015.

After being fostered by 2 other families beforehand, the 3-year-old moved in with 17-year-old Dezhianna and her family in February 2015.

Understandably, the toddler was extremely hesitant at adjusting to a new home and family so spent alot of time anxious, crying and being shy in front of his new parents and siblings.

But having spent more than a year with the Brown family, Michael officially became a part of his new family when he was adopted this week.

His new sister Dehzianna spoke to Buzzfeed about her little brother’s delighted reaction upon hearing the news.

“His last name was already Brown so we knew it was meant to be… He was so excited on the day.

“I don’t think he truly understood what being adopted meant. He just knew he was being adopted.”

She spoke of how settled her new brother has become at finally being adopted into the family.

“Now when he sleeps with me, he’ll roll over in the morning and get super close to my face and say, ‘Dae, I so happy.'”

With a face like that, how could you not be DELIGHTED with having a new baby brother.

He’s an absolute sweetheart!
