For the past 10 years, Hailey Quinones has felt in her heart that Juan Gamez was her rightful father. But now she wants to make it official.
Twelve-year-old Hailey stood before some 150 people at her schools talent show and sang a song she wrote just for Gamez.
"I would be so pleased if you would adopt me," she crooned while fighting back tears.
Gamez was left stunned, covering his mouth with his hand.
And his answer was most definitely yes.
He was in shock, Alishea Conroy said of her husband. Hed have never thought that she would do that.
Her daughter, Conroy said, is very shy and very reluctant to show any emotion when it comes to feeling sad or sentimental.
But in this important case, she was able to muster the bravery to bare her heart.
I love you Juany and theres no more I can say, I smile every time I see your face, she sang to her stepfather.
She had to stop and restart several times because she was crying.
"She didnt know if she was going to be able to get it out, her mother said.
But she did just fine.
