Facebook When Tudy met Angel, he took in both HaLeigh and her two other children, and according to Angel treated them all like 'one big happy family'. In November, Angel decided to look into changing HaLeigh's name and adding Tudy, whose real name is David, to her birth certificate.

Facebook Angel says 'my kids and I were super blessed to have found this man and become a family with him and every day I thank the good Lord for putting him in our path'. 'I cried and cried and wondered ‘why?’ I had done everything in order and asked me what could possibly be wrong?' Angel said. As it was the New Year holidays Angel had to wait until January 2 to call and ask what went wrong. Luckily, the fix was simple and Angel was able to do it without her husband knowing, while Tudy continued to think that the process was unable to be completed. Initially, Angel was going to wait two weeks until Valentine's Day, which is also Tudy's birthday, to surprise him, but was too excited to wait. 'There was no way I could wait that long, so I wrote a quick poem and handed it to him. My kids and I were super blessed to have found this man and become a family with him and every day I thank the good Lord for putting him in our path.' Credits: dailymail.co.uk
