Christine shares her story ...At 23, I got pregnant for the second time. Previously, I had an abortion but I made a promise to God that I would never do that again. Going into this adoption, I was extremely scared and angry. Having a baby too early would not only deprive this child of a fair childhood, but also me of having the stability that I truly sought. A lot happened for me at Hannah's House; I did a lot of soul searching and with Dr. Pugh's help I started my healing process. By the end of my pregnancy, I had grown close with the adoptive family which was unexpected. When the baby came, I chose not to see her. It was hard but in the end it felt perfect; I wouldn't have asked for this adoption to go any other way. All kinds of doors opened for me at Hannah's House including finding my dream. I've always wanted to be fashion designer but I realized that I had let that dream go over time. While at Hannah’s House, I found a school, wrote essays, drew sketches and took tests. It all paid off because I was accepted and I cried right there on the spot! With the different Cal Grants and financial aid I am applying for, hopefully, I will start school in July.
