A little about me!

Hi, from Hannah!

Many of you have asked how I got my name ... and it's such a cool story!

Mom and Dad got an email from my birth mom and dad wondering if they had thought of names for their little girl yet. That's when they found out I was a little girl ... and they were so excited!

My birth mom and dad asked Mom and Dad to consider Lee or Lea as my middle name. Lee is my birth dad's middle name and Lea is my birth mom's grandma's middle name. Mom and Dad thought that was an awesome idea, so that's why my middle name is Lee ... after Very Important People in my birth family!

Mom and Dad wanted a classic, easy-to-spell, Biblical name for my first name. Mom took a class this fall at church about women in the Bible and really felt a connection to the Biblical story of Hannah. (Check it out here http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1Samuel%201-3&version=NIV&interface=print)

Mom and Dad emailed Hannah and one other name they liked to my birth parents ... they also really liked the name Hannah, and that's how I got my name!

I think it's really neat that both sets of my parents started working together to help me before I was even born. I am really, really lucky to be so loved!

Here's what I've looked like most of the weekend ... snoozy! I must be growing because I've been sleeping and eating a LOT!



Love, Hannah
