In 2010, Sandra Bullock received a phone call that changed her life forever. “Your placement is here,” said the voice on the other end.

A few weeks later, she was on a stage, accepting her first Oscar for her appearance in The Blind Side, but she didn’t care she was there. “All I wanted was to go was just go home and feed Lou” she said of her newborn, whom she had been waiting for years to arrive.

In 2005, after Hurricane Katrina devastated Louisiana by flooding its grounds, Sandra Bullock had a feeling that inspired her decision to adopt a child.

“Katrina happened in New Orleans, and something told me, ‘My child is there.’ It was weird,” Bullock said in an interview with Today’s  Hoda Kotb.

Years later, in January 2010, Bullock received the call she had been waiting years to receive.

“He was unexpected, he was not planned. I got a call one day, ‘Your placement is here,’ and that’s after years after having filed it, years,” the 59-year-old star of Speed tells CBS News.

Little Lou

Gushing over Louis Bardo Bullock, the three-month-old boy from New Orleans she secretly adopted in 2010, Bullock said, “I looked at him likе, ‘Oh, there you are.’ It was likе he had always been there,” she recalled. “He fit in the crook of my arm. He looked me in the eyes. He was wise. My child was wise.”

The Miss Congeniality star adds, “The beautiful thing that I was constantly told was, ‘The perfect child will find you. You will find your child.’ But you don’t believe that when it’s not happening. When you’re going, ‘Where is my family?’ When it does happen, you know exactly what they’re talking about.”

Weeks after Lou arrived, Bullock was on stage at the Kodiak Theatre, accepting her first Oscar for her starring role in the film, The Blind Side.

But Lou owned her center stage and she wanted to be at home, with him.

“All I kept thinking about was, ‘He’s at home.’ Like, I didn’t care. I didn’t care that I was there, I just wanted to go home. And then I was sewn in the dress. I was sewn in the dress, and I had to get myself out of the dress, but all I wanted to do was just go home and feed Lou.”

Only days after, her marriage to reality star Jesse James came crashing down and Bullock became a single mother to an infant.

Bullock said, “I mean, so much had happened. How do you process grief and not hurt your child in the process? It’s a newborn, they take on everything that you’re feeling. So, my obligation was to [Lou] and not tainting the first year of his life with my grief.”

‘Louis’ got the stage’

“No one understands the shift in priorities about having a child in your life … until you have a child in your life,” Bullock said of shifting her focus from career to mom. “It naturally shifts…he showed up and now, Louis’ got the stage.”

Growing up in a healthy, happy environment, little Lou one day looked up at mom and predicted “I’m going to have a baby soon.”

Though Bullock admits she wasn’t planning on growing her family, she listened to her son, who planted the seed.

“I realized at that time, maybe he knew something. And when I think about it, it would have been around the time that Laila was born,” Bullock said. “It’s Louis’ way. Louis has a very strong way. He’s a fine leader, and he led me to Lai.”

Laila, who was living in foster care in Louisiana, is her daughter who joined the family in 2015 when she was three.

Recalling Laila’s trаumа from being in childcare, the Ocean’s 8 star said, “She’d be in the closet with all her clothes on, she’d be on a bookshelf, she’d be hiding, she’d always be ready to leave,” the actress recalled of her daughter, adding that she always made sure Laila knew that she wasn’t “going anywhere.”

She then shаrеd a conversation she had about Laila with Bryan Randall, the father figure to her children, and her partner from 2015 until ALS claimed his life in 2023. She said, “My partner said to me, ‘When she’s been with us longer than she hasn’t been, I have a feeling we’re going to see a change.’”

He was right. Recently, Bullock described Laila as “unafraid.”

“She’s a fighter, and that’s the reason she’s here today. She fought to keep her spirit intact. Oh my God, what she is going to accomplish. She’s going to bring some real change.”

Lou, now 13, “is super sensitive…He’s wise and kind,” the Bird Box star tells People. “I saw that when they handed him to me. There was a spiritual bigness to him.”

Though fans will be disappointed, the versatile actor is scaling back her work schedule to again be a single mother.

Bullock last appeared in 2022’s The Lost City with Channing Tatum and Bullet Train with Brad Pitt.

“I can be creative, I can be part of a community, but right now, work in front of the camera needs to take a pause,” she said.

The woman entered the hospital with a blanket covering what everyone assumed was a child, but as she disclosed what she had brought, the doctors and nurses fell silent. Take a look at what she hid:

Shelby Hennick, a 21-year-old lady, went viral after making a touching gesture for her grandma, who was in serious condition in the hospital.

The woman’s grandmother had been suffering from lung problems and was in pain. Her only relief was the wish to see Patsy, her dog, whom she had missed terribly during her hospital stay.

Shelby went above and beyond to devise a crafty scheme to bring a smile to her grandmother’s face.

She planned to wrap Patsy in a blanket and sneak her into the hospital so her grandmother could see her beloved dog again. However, the hospital’s tight rules prohibited dogs, leaving the grandmother depressed.

Shelby utilized her expertise as a veterinarian to calm the worried pup, who was originally highly restless and disturbed, before continuing on the dangerous tour. Shelby appeased Patsy and slipped her into the hospital unannounced with a delicate touch and gentle words.

The surprise reunion was a huge success, and the grandmother was ecstatic to see Patsy again finally. Shelby’s care and love for her grandma not only improved the grandmother’s day but also touched the hearts of millions worldwide, who have since complimented Shelby’s consideration and love for her grandmother.

Shelby strolled boldly inside the hospital, Patsy disguised beneath a blanket. Despite the look of a hidden baby, Patsy was her beloved dog.

Her sudden entrance into the room startled Shelby’s grandmother. Patsy was coming to see her, and she had no idea. Shelby finally unveiled her furry pet, which delighted the grandmother. The expression of love brought the grandmother to tears.

Others were encouraged to share their happy stories when they shared them on Facebook. A stranger commented that he, too, had taken his grandfather’s dog to see him in the hospital, despite the difficulties in getting it in.
