Letters of Recommendation

To Whom It May Concern:

 

I have known and worked with Jessa and Keaton for the past six years.  We first met through a community theatre production and soon we started working together in a professional manner. Upon first meeting them I was immediately impressed with their kindness and generosity of spirit. They were open and loving and we quickly formed a connection.  I felt tender, and protective of them, as they were around my oldest son’s age, and friends with him as well.  Soon though they would prove to be people who showed up for me, by supporting my family’s small and big moments, from performances to weddings, to supporting in goals and dreams, to sending texts of kindness and caring.  I learned quickly that they were loyal, generous, gracious and that they were individuals who could be trusted and leaned on. I’ve grown to respect and adore Keaton and Jessa for many reasons, both professionally and personally, but the thing I admire most is their ability for unconditional love and grace.

 

In the professional realm, Keaton and Jessa are organized, hardworking, dependable, and self-driven. There is never a doubt that a commitment will be followed through with and done to the best of their ability. Because they are individuals who keep their commitments, they can be trusted with completing what they are asked to do, they always go above and beyond, and are always willing to share their information and resources with others. It’s always good to have them on a team. What incredible traits to have for parenthood as well. 

 

Jessa and Keaton truly love each other. Their commitment to one another and their family, despite any obstacles they may face, is beautiful and one to be admired and respected. Their home is filled with love, laughter, and learning. They seek to make safe spaces and adventures in the things they do. They are fun, and warm, and consistent in those things. They balance their roles well and each have their strengths. Keaton might be baking and teaching their son the fun of throwing flour, while Jessa is watching on laughing and planning their next adventure. Having said that I know they love their quiet times of teaching, snuggling and just having that quality family time. 

 

As individuals Keaton and Jessa have spent countless hours teaching and mentoring students in their various jobs. They are non-judgmental and realistic. They are also raising a son and are providing a safe, happy, and encouraging home. They love being moms and truly love the gift of motherhood. They want nothing more than to give more love, and that is why I am confident and have no doubts in recommending them to be adoptive parents.  Not only would it be so good for them to have the gift of raising and loving a child, but that child would have the gift of them. The gift of safety and unconditional, enduring love. That we should all be so lucky. 

 

Sincerely,

Stephenie Cooper
