"I highly recommend Nathan and Courtney for being parents, they have so much love in their hearts, a great home, supportive extended family and are very familiar with their community. They have a beautiful, huge yard where kids would love to run and play and learn so much about nature and gardening. Nathan and Courtney are a fun and stable couple, I have trusted them with my own kids too!"

"Nathan and Courtney are some of the best people I know. They truly care about everybody and often go out of their way to help others. Both have a solid faith in God that they live out genuinely. They are both great with children and I don't hesitate to leave my own children in their care when the opportunity presents itself. They are very intelligent and enjoy the outdoors, music, literature and many other things. If you are looking to provide a great family and future for your child, I believe you wouldn't find a better couple than Nathan and Courtney. "
Mark Koeser, Courtney's Dad
"I am Courtney’s dad and would be a grandparent to any child that Courtney and Nathan would adopt. So I might be biased on my feelings that they would be great parents. Both of them are gifted hard working adults who long to have a child of their own. Nathan has a great job and both Courtney and Nathan are involved with their church. Courtney was a gifted figure skater in her youth and can play four instruments. So my part – why I would think it great if they could adopt. Both Courtney and Nathan and my wife and I Iive on what was the family farm, so they are our closest neighbors. Any child of theirs would have plenty of room to roam and explore in their front yard. Hills to climb and creeks to cross. And since I am retired there is nothing that would thrill me more than to take long hikes and go explore the outdoors with my grandchild. Plenty of room to romp with our dog or any other pet they might desire. So please consider Courtney and Nathan as potential adoptive parents. I know any child placed with them would be very loved. Not only by them but also by their grandpa and grandma. "

"Nathan and Courtney are honestly some of the best people I know. Nathan has a steady job as an electrician and is one of the funniest and most rock solid guys you’ll ever meet. It is evident that Nathan adores Courtney and treats her with a kindness that melts your heart. Courtney has the most beautiful soul and heart for other people. They serve and love others with their whole hearts. Love, JOY, Peace, Kindness, and faithfulness are all words that describe them really well. They have wisdom beyond their years. I look to and trust them for advice on most everything, including parenting. They have loved and cared for many foster kids. Just to give you a small picture into what your child’s life might look like……Nathan and Courtney live on a beautiful piece of land with loving grandparents close by. About every year there is a new litter of kittens to play with. They have a large garden, tree fort, and tons of parks close by. So all this to say…your baby would be WELL taken care of and SO LOVED beyond measure!!!! We are ALL so very ready to love and welcome your child into our big, fun, and loving family. Family is so important to us and your child would have 5 little cousin friends to have loads of fun with. And in addition to all that, I hope you know how loved YOU are! THANK YOU! I can’t even begin to imagine how difficult this all must be! Thank you for your sacrifice, selflessness, and wisdom to know what’s best for this child. I know it’s very important to Nathan and Courtney that a child knows where they come from. So you will not be Forgotten! So far from it! We love you and are so thankful for you!"
Bruce and Suzanne Brown, Nathan's parents
"Nathan was a great kid growing up! As an adult he is very responsible and holds a steady job. He and Courtney are a great couple and together they are absolutely delightful!! They are adventurous and love the outdoors. They have a strong faith in God that has upheld them their whole lives. We are so happy they have expressed their desire to become parents! They have been wonderful foster parents and are amazing with their niece and nephews!! We are convinced they will make great parents and that any little person who gets to be raised by them will be blessed, as well as their birth mom! ~Bruce and Suzanne"
