Birthday Tribute

Happy Birthday to my dear friend, Laura Bower!!

Lauralai Allison, 

You are truly one of my favorite people.  You are kind, trustworthy, and a great listener... you care about the details and you make me feel heard and loved and understood, and I so appreciate that (and hope the reverse is also true).  You have a wonderfully witty sense of humor that brightens everyone's day!  You are beautiful, inside and out.  You are delightfully quirky, and you know and appreciate most of my delightful quirks. ;)  You're fantastic and vibrant and one-of-a-kind, but so unaware of the reality of your own awesomeness - which just makes you all the more lovable. :)  And most importantly, you genuinely seek to serve God and "call on Him in truth," and you encourage me to draw closer to Him!  


Whether we're walking with Molly and Clara at "Crescent Park Ridge Roll" or singing to OneRepublic or dining at Panera or "waiving the wheat" at the OSU game or narcissistically editing all of our pictures or discussing the love of Katniss and Peeta or spontaneously going to the open house party or almost running over an entire family of racoons... I always love hanging out with you! :)  I'm so very thankful for our friendship - for all the fun memories and heart-to-heart talks over the past four years, and looking forward to many more in the years to come.

I hope you're having a fabulous time in Houston - can't wait to hear all about it!  And again, Happy Birthday!  

Love you!!
~Lindsey Lou
