Forever Family

On Tuesday August 2nd, our family went to the Temple. Andy and Hana were sealed to us for all eternity. All of our children were there in the Temple with us. It was an incredible experience. We all felt so happy. To me it was as happy as my wedding day. My Grandfather was the sealer and he did a wonderful job. We had family and friends there too. The children all really liked the beauty and peace there. Andy and Hana have talked about it several times since, and have said they really liked it. I don't know what else to say about it here because it was just so special for us that words cannot describe it.

That day was also Hana's birthday. She turned 6 years old. She went on a date with me that day and after the temple we celebrated with lots of family too. She is such a great addition to our family. We all love her so much. Anyone that has met her knows what a delightful child she is. She's so affectionate and accepting. She's smart and energetic and funny. My favorite thing she does now is the way she will act out stories she wants to tell because she doesn't know enough words to communicate an entire story in words so she'll act it out. It's adorable. It was so fun watching her enjoy her special day too. She's been asking me since if she can have another birthday and if she can go to the Temple on another birthday. What a cutie.
