A couple flying home after adopting their newborn baby girl in November got an unexpected surprise on the plane – an impromptu baby shower. New dad Dustin Moore took to Twitter<\/a> last week to share the uplifting story, highlighting the kindness of the flight crew and fellow passengers on the plane.<\/p>\n

Through a series of twelve tweets<\/a>, Moore relayed how he and his wife, Caren, were returning home to California after adopting their newborn baby girl in Colorado. Mid-flight, Moore asked a flight attendant named Jenny for her assistance in finding a spot for a diaper change. Jenny cleared an area in the back of the plane, and then she politely asked why Moore was flying with such a young infant. After hearing the adoption story, Jenny and her husband Bobby, also an attendant on the plane, hatched a plan.<\/p>\n

“Then, we heard the intercom. The attendant Bobby came on and announced a special guest on the flight. Our daughter. ‘She\u2019s just been adopted by her parents Caren and Dustin, and is making her way home.’ The entire cabin erupted in cheers and applause,” tweeted Moore.<\/p>\n

Moore shared that Bobby and Jenny passed out napkins and pens to everyone seated on the plane and asked them to share their best advice and encouragement with the new parents. “We sat in speechless gratitude, as people kept peeking over their chairs to congratulate us,” said Moore.<\/p>\n
