According to People, “The process of expanding her family began three years ago, with her adopted 5 year old son, Louis helping to lead the way. ‘Louis spearheaded this whole journey,’ and while the two siblings have since formed an inseparable bond, Bullock says the first stages of bringing Laila home required patience and plenty of reassurance.”
