((HOST Emily Frances)) HELLO EVERYONE, THIS IS EMILY FRANCES. WELCOME
TO HOW TO MOM TV. WE ALL KNOW DENISE RICHARD’S DEVOTION TO HER TWO DAUGHTERS WITH EX HUSBAND
CHARLIE SHEEN, NOT TO MENTION THE COUNTLESS ANIMALS SHE’S RESCUED AND ADOPTED OVER THE
YEARS.
LAST YEAR, THE SINGLE MOTHER TO 9 YEAR OLD SAMMY AND 8 YEAR OLD LOLA ADOPTED A BABY GIRL
NAMED ELOISE JONI. JONI WAS DENISE’S MOTHERS NAME. JONI PASSED AWAY SEVERAL YEARS AGO.
I HUNG OUT WITH DENISE IN NEW YORK CITY, AND SHE OPENED UP TO ME ABOUT WHY
ADOPTING WAS THE BEST DECISION SHE’S EVER MADE AND HOW ELOISE HAS ENRICHED HER WHOLE
FAMILY.
((DENISE RICHARDS- ACTRESS)) I just was not done having kids, AND couldn’t
explain it. Do you feel spiritually speaking that a soul was gonna come to you and be part
of the family? I do definitely. I feel that we choose our parents. I feel that Sam and
Lola chose me and Charlie and feel Eloise found me, found us. Spiritually that’s how
I feel. There’s just different ways going about it. You don’t have to physically give
birth to be a parent. I know what that’s like . Ive given birth and I’ve adopted
and I can honestly say there’s no difference in that connection. She’s such a blessing.
It feels like I had her naturally and the girls feel like I did and they’re very connected
to her. They are the best big sisters for her. She’s just amazing.
((HOST Emily Frances)) DENISE WANTED TO ADOPT FROM THE US AND ADMITS
THE ADOPTION PROCESS WAS NOT WITHOUT IT’S UPS AND DOWNS.
IT’S ESPECIALLY CHALLENGING FOR SINGLE PARENTS BUT AFTER 1 1/2 YEARS, ELOISE CAME
INTO THEIR LIVES. SHE’S NOW 2 YEARS OLD
