* A small moment, but Jane falling asleep on Tim during the siblings’ journey to Switzerland. Despite their SiblingRivalry throughout the movie, the fact that Tim lets her do that shows how much he truly loves his family. Even more heartwarming in hindsight given that they’d been separated up until recently.

** If you really think about it the homes the kids are sent too are emotionally neglectful, but they do watch the known interests of the kids. The Barnabys like tinkering and technology is close to that. Jane also likes singing which relates to music. Tim's the only one with sadly, not outlying interests. And he's sent to "Well meaning"- parents. Who knows what Orphan services intended of, but its clear they care.

* Nanny calling the Barnbys A and B. It doubles as a funny moment, but the fact that Nanny actually decides to tell them apart is the first sign that she actually cares about the children.

* While Orphans Services come off as the bad guys there's a few lines that imply they do care about children, just more in the keeping them safe, well-fed, and healthy departments. The Head woman mentions it was good to see Nanny taking action, almost proudly, as while a throwaway line that they serve oatmeal since its healthy and very hard to choke on. The foster homes the children are sent to are described as "well-meaning". None of the homes are the typical bad depiction seen in media.

* The credits are an adorable display of arts and crafts that depict the Willoughbys, Nanny, Ruth and Melanoff doing things from going camping and watching movies together, as well as show us adoption papers and Tim's report card from school, making it perfectly clear that the Willoughby children are finally going to have a full, loving childhood.
