Hi, from Hannah!: My first church service ... and meeting my birth family!

Hi, from Hannah!

Sunday was a very big day for me. It was the very first time Mommy and Daddy took me to church!

When I was just born, my doctor told Mommy and Daddy to stay away from places with large crowds so I didn't get the flu or RSV. So, we've been watching church services online instead of worshipping together so I stay healthy.

Now that I'm a little older, we all thought it'd be a good idea to use church as my first outing!

But instead of going to the big church where Mommy and Daddy are members, we loaded up the car and drove to a smaller church where my birth mom's father is the pastor.

Everyone was so excited to see me ... especially my birth mom and dad. Lots of people came up and said hello and told me how beautiful I am. =)

But my favorite part of the service was when my birth mom's mother sang a very special song about adoption for my birth mom and me! My birth grandma is also adopted, so we share a very special bond. I'm so excited I got to meet her and hear her beautiful song!

After church, we drove to my birth mom's parents' house for lunch. It was so yummy and I really loved the pretty pink bouncy seat I got to sit in there.

My birth mom's sister, Savannah, said that I must like to dance because every time I heard the music on the bouncy chair, I would kick my legs and move my arms like I was dancing. Savannah is my new best friend and she makes me smile and giggle a lot!

Mommy and Daddy enjoyed visiting with my birth mom and dad and also with her dad, mom, and two sisters. I can't wait to get to know them all better in the future!
