Two for Lu - 18!

Emily: 

1. I love how Lucy makes everyone around her so happy. She is so mature, mellow, and fun that people love to hang out with her and just be around her. Lucy has so many good friends and I am lucky to have her as a sister. It was a pleasure to be co-maids of honor at Sally's wedding. 

2. Lucy is so hardworking. She has put so much work and energy into her high school career and I am so proud of her for always juggling school, dance, friends, and church. I can't wait to see how she grows this summer at camp! Love you LucyGoose.

Taylor:

1. Lucy is consistently positive. She is always looking for ways to make a positive impact, whether that is through church, work or school. She is unafraid to dream big and take others along for the ride, even as far as doing mission work abroad. I admire how she puts her heart into all that she does. She was such a positive light in our wedding, bringing infectious joy and fun the whole time. 


2. I love that Lucy has a very mature, calm, and collected approach to life. She takes all of the craziness in stride and approaches every day as it comes. Lucy is very thoughtful and plans well, remaining level headed even if things don't go to plan - and with a whirlwind of activities, and a family that seeks out change, this is a great way to be. 

Mom:

1. I love Lucy because she is so much fun for me to hang around with and fun to watch hang around with her friends. I am so blessed that she invited me on her spring break with her so that I could get to know all the people that she loves so dearly.

2. I love how prayerful that Lucy is. It is amazing to watch her each day open her Bible and read and then take notes on the lesson for the day. She always makes time for her spiritual side while exceeding with friendships and school work. She's a wonderful girl and daughter and I'm so happy to call her mine. 


Sally:

1. I love how Lucy stays so true to herself and her beliefs. She is dedicated to God and that faith shines through in all that she does. Lucy is solid, wise beyond her years, and such a role model for me and many others. 

2. I love how Lucy handles being the only one at home. You are the most independent, driven, and hilarious baby of the family and we all learn so much from you. You don’t take yourself to seriously and laugh at all of us (rightfully so). I don’t know what our family would do without the beautiful, talented, smart, funny Goose. 


Dad:

1. I heard a motivational speaker during our sales meeting this week and he talked about how growth only comes when we get outside of our comfort zone. I love and admire how Lucy is not afraid to put herself out there, to lean into a challenge and to grow in so many ways.

2. I love how Lucy knows how to handle life when it throws curve balls. She understands that YOU can choose to reframe situations that may not be exactly what you expected and turn closed doors into open doors. That is a gift that will allow her to accomplish many things in life.
