Sarah Elizabeth!

Happy Saint Patrick's Day, gang!!  The world is going a bit mad, so I'll be focusing on happy things here.  Today's "Tribute Tuesday" goes to Sarah Elizabeth Heiskell Fulton! ❤

(This update is long overdue - the 2009 version doesn't cut it 11 years later.)  

Sarah Elizabeth, you are awesome because...

• You're my "friend soulmate" as an ENFP, even if it took you a while to believe that was really your personality type! lol
• You're an excellent cook, baker, and dinner party/ game night hostess!
• You are fun, smart, confident, and beautiful inside and out!

• You're a great vacation buddy... Vegas, Big Cedar, Disney, and hopefully more fun trips to come in the future!
• You jump into action quickly and save us all from a cabin fire when the pizza box ignites. Lol

• You're willing to be vulnerable, and you keep it real and call things like you see them, a quality that helps me become more uninhibited and enables me to be honest without feeling judged!
• You have the most beautiful hair, and you're an expert on hair-styling (curling, braiding, etc.)!
• You share my love for "day Vegas" and Mon Ami Gabi brunch, and my philosophy on great food being essential to a good vacation! =)

• You're an exceptional PICU nurse who has helped so many sick children and their families!
• You're intelligent and ambitious and talented, and I fully support you if you decide to go for the CRNA!
• You are genuinely supportive of me in my goals and plans, listening well, communicating honestly, and being a loyal friend I can count on!

• You have a fascinating life story, and your resilience and bold strength shines through after all the things you've survived and overcome!
• You show up and come through for your friends when they need you!
• You're kind and considerate and willing to have difficult conversations and work through things because friendships really matter to you!
• You will speak up and say things that are supportive and validating and needed, and I love that!

• From scavenger hunts to heartfelt FB messages to concerts, vacations, summer swims, Christmas parties, gun ranges, game nights, Bible studies, dinners, global pandemics and more, you're one of my favorite people to talk to and hang out with! =)
• I have a thousand fun memories with you over the past decade+ and hopefully many more to come!!

Thankful for your friendship, and see you soon! =)
