JOSHUA’S BiRTHDAY DAY 🎉🎂 

Look what can be done for a child in a house full of love .

I teared up quite a few times when Joshua was opening his gifts. His family and friends clearly love him so. My Mom used to say to be spoiled was being extra loved, and Joshua deserves it. Happy Birthday Joshua!!!! - Genea

I was born without a thyroid, in 1978 thyroid panels weren’t part of routine bloodwork for newborns so mine wasn’t caught until I started having issues at 4 months old. The doctors told my parents that because of the delay in getting treatment started I wasn’t going to have a “normal” life. I’m about to turn 45 and I couldn’t ask for a better life. I have my dream career, beautiful wife, a great house and awesome friends. Yes I’ve had my challenges, I had a bit of a learning curve in school, my heart took a hit with the development issues so I’ve had 6 heart surgeries. Sometimes I deal with horrible pain when my levels get off. I’ve always had to work a bit harder than most to stay in shape because the synthroid just isn’t the same as what the thyroid does. My parents refused to listen to the doctors when they said there was little hope. They always guided me and supported me, they always supported me in my dreams. I’m certainly glad they did! Josh seems like a kid that won’t let challenges hold him back and you and your family seem a lot like my parents were….

We just never give up on our kids…Josh is a perfect example why. ♥️

I love Josh’s giggle and that he gives his momma a hug

Happy 22nd Birthday Josh. You really brought tears to my eye. You are such a happy and greatful person. Heather, you and your husband deserve all the huge hugs from Josh. You made his life wonderful.

The way y’all make EVERY present a big deal for him. I love it! You can really feel GENUINE love here. ❤

This video made my day. Thank you Bells for making your kids feel safe and loved. They can be confident that they will continue to be loved forever. I hate hearing about foster kids aging out and tossed into the world without guidance. Happy Birthday Josh!!

the joy on joshs face made my WHOLE ENTIRE DAY after watching this. HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSH!!! thank you and your family for making my day.

He is such an overcomer!! What a loving family for him to be in. He is a blessing to all of you.

Happy birthday, Josh!! Just love how all the kids are there for one another. Great job Heather and Luke.🧡

With a mother, father and family like you guys, that's why Josh is who he is. You're all amazing! Happy birthday Josh!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSH!!! I can't stop smiling!!! His soul just radiates pure love and joy!!

So much fun watching Joshua’s 22nd birthday party. Love everyone’s enthusiasm and love for him. Thank you for sharing in a special family birthday party. Go Joshua and happy 22nd birthday❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤

Also, it's you, Heather and your husband. When parents help and encourage their children and get the help they need, children will always find success in whatever they pursue, Happy birthday Josh 🎂 🥳 🎉 have a great day mate 👌🇦🇺

It is so nice to watch your son get reasonable and thoughtful birthday gifts. I was also pleased to see how thankfull he was to get his gifts. He walked over and hugged the person who gave him a gift. So refreshing to see

And don't you worry about his future. He is so lovable, he will find a good lady that loves him and will form a family with him if that is what he wants.

Happy 22nd birthday, Josh! I wish you all the very best on this special day. May you be blessed today, tomorrow, and in the upcoming days to come. May you have a wonderful birthday and many more to come.

Happy Birthday Josh! His smile is contagious! 🎉

Josh is having a great day!!! Looks so happy:)

Happy birthday Josh!!! And you were right Izzy’s hair did look good. The party looked like so much fun!!!!

I love the way he moved in for a hug while you were singing.❤❤❤

This video makes me smile for so many reasons. The fact that you all and Josh said no to those doctors and defeated the odds. I love how much love is shown by everyone in the video for Josh. I love your family so much and have been watching for a long time now. I feel like part of your family. I live in northern Michigan too. Can we send Josh a gift?

That's so cool, as a adult those are very good gifts. I get socks and coffee and tshirts . Awesome saves me 100 bucks lol

I absolutely love this family. You and your husband have shown so.much love to these children. God Bless you all.

Happy birthday Josh! Thank you for sharing this, I smiled the whole video. What a wonderful family you have.

Happy 22nd birthday Josh 🎂 🥳 🎉 🎈 🎁

This was the best birthday I’ve seen!! Love it!❤

So many people write people with disabilities off in life and it is a TRUE travesty when they do that! It is SO AMAZING the things we can learn from those with a disability; like HUMBALENESS, LOVE, HOW TO LET GO AND LIVE, GENUINE HAPPINESS, APPRECIATION, etc. I can go on and on. I personally have felt blessed when I come around someone with a disability and see them shine (smile) it is so uplifting to me to know they are truly happy. That means HOME is LOVING and APPRECIATING, etc. All the things that Josh has are because of your love, your husband's love, and his sibling's love. YOU ALL have accomplished SO MUCH for those kids it is TRULY amazing! Josh smiles because he knows you all love him. You all are amazing! We need more people like you to help kids to know love and what a REAL home is like! Thank you for doing this for them!

I loved watching this. I watched it with my 3 year old daughter who sang happy birthday right along. Your family is so beautiful and loving to each other and it fills my heart with such joy. I am so glad I discovered your channel. Mrs. Bell your smile is so warm it makes me smile and breaks my heart because you remind me of my Mom who passed in September 2022.

He is so sweetI love how he put everything nicely.. say thank you . A person that is happy to receive lunchables or candy as gift is my kind of human 😀

This was a joy to watch. Such a beautiful family. Loved the fun and banter.❤. Happy birthday to Josh.

My 18 year old daughter needs to meet Josh. Two peas in a pod. I thank God every day that he put her in our lives. Tougher and stronger than us by far. I totally got what you were saying in the beginning of the video!

Josh is absolutely the sweetest, I just adore him so much❤

Awesome video Just The Bells 10! Happy Happy Birthday Joshua! What a heartwarming look at YOUR day Josh! Makes my heart full for you ❤❤❤

My son has autism I was told when he entered high school he wouldn’t be able to graduate with his class and he would be in school till the age of 22 and wouldn’t be able to go to college or live on his own and so on. I left the school heart broken but then I said the hell with them my so will experience everything just like the other kids in school it may take more work but we will do it. And sure enough he graduated on time w his class and w his welding certificate and went to prom got his license a job at 16 w HEB who he still works for he’s now 25. A disability or a disease doesn’t mean they can’t have goal and dreams a life they may have to work harder they may always need help but it can be done. My son does live me still but he does want his own place as well but keep his room with us lol. He says his future apartment will be for when he’s tired of us he can go to relax but he will be back. And that’s ok too. He just went threw a hard break with a girl who isn’t autistic and he’s taking it hard. But we just keep telling him it’s ok no need to rush someone is out there to except him for himself. I’m proud of all he’s accomplished. We got him the extra help and he had some great teachers and friends to helped as well. Josh is going to be ok he has a great support system you all show it everyday how much you love him. Happy Birthday kid 🎉❤

What a wonderful birthday!!! Mom is a Angel on Earth! I adopted 2 boys & had 2 boys❤❤❤

Josh is grateful for life which is nice to see from anyone. I kniw this video was a while back but Happy Birthday, Josh.

Just a suggestion for the next kids birthday when they want to bowl, you can call and reserve a few spots for the birthday child..Same as anywhere else like red lobster you can call ahead and reserve tables so you all can be together..

Such a joy to watch and such a personal motivation for me today. A day of struggling again with 2 small foster boys who test me to my limit. Keep on loving and working and all will be well ❤

Happy birthday Josh. What a beautiful family. I love watching your videos. Your such amazing parents.
