Melissa Johnson,
Sister of Nathan
" I am Nathan's older (and only) sister, Melissa. My husband and I have eight boys. Nathan, Rebecca and Austin are in our home frequently, playing games, eating good food, teasing nephews, laughing, having fun, and we love it. (you'll find that Nathan is referred to as Nate quite frequently- I grew up calling him Nathan, so that is what I still call him, even though most of the time he goes by Nate now)
Nathan and Rebecca are people who care deeply. They care about each other, they care about their son Austin, and they would care about and cherish any child added to their family with all of their hearts. They have an awesome extended family on both sides (I might be a little biased) that would add even more love on top of that. Some of the things I admire about Nathan is his dedication and hard work to support their family so Rebecca can stay home with their children. HIs willingness to compromise when called for, or stand firm when needed. Some of the things I admire about Rebecca is her artistic attention to detail, her conscientious parenting- she thinks about and plans ways to teach and play with Austin- and her ability to get the work done so she can play. They are both good at working hard so they can play hard. I also love the way they support each other in the use of their talents. They are both really good singers, and they take turns being part of a community choir. They both take a lot of joy in their son, they take time to appreciate him and the fun things he does/says. I would say the thing that directs their lives is that they both care deeply about their relationship with Heavenly Father. It is not something they talk about all the time, but you can tell in the way they live and the way they treat each other and the people around them. They have a lot of joy and a lot of love and I would have no issue whatsoever in recommending them to anyone. They aren't perfect- nobody is- but I have no doubt they could be the perfect parents for a special little someone who needs a good home.
I will add one thing- Nathan and Rebecca tend to be very private, especially about the things that matter most to them. The fact that they are willing to put up a profile for anyone to see, to share their lives, to put themselves out there, is an indication of how very much they desire to add more children to their family. I sincerely hope and pray that that desire will be granted- perhaps by you. "
