Scott and Hannah

Today begins what will become a series of posts dedicated to people who have become very special to our family for a variety of reasons, primarily for the kindnesses they have shown towards Jazzy.

Scott and Hannah were friends of my husband since high school.  I met them when I met Matt.  After their big move to California to pursue Hannah's dream of acting, I invited them to spend a day at the beach with my family.  We played in the sun, sand, and with all of Jazz's favorite toys...  Particularly the ones that were broken. 

Scott rescued and pieced together her long broken toys with the help of another dear friend of ours.  It was instant love in Jazz for Scott.  To this day, if there is anything that needs to be fixed, the second Scott walks in the door, she's asking him to fix it.  She also has fallen in love with his smart phone and talking his ears off.

Love for Hannah came naturally since Hannah has a naturally calm and quiet soul.  Jazz is very attracted to gentle spirited brunette women.  Jazz loves to just sit and cuddle with Hannah as they watch a movie or talk about girl things.  We are thankful for Hannah's patience, interest in Jazz's favorite topics/hobbies, and willingness to play a thousand board games over and over again to entertain Jazz.

Jazz and Hannah 2010

For Jazz, Scott and Hannah represent fun friends that she loves.  For my family they represent so much more.  There have been many moments in Jazz's life when people have judged her, treated her unfairly, called her names, ridiculed us for how we handle her, and so much more...  Scott and Hannah have always accepted her for who she is.  They have always been able to see all of her potential, like we did the first time we ever met her.  They have always been able to just love her and see the real and amazing person inside of her.

And so, thank you Scott and Hannah for always being patient and kind to Jazz and just loving her.

Much Love!
