This year Lindsay hits a big milestone in age as she will be turning 30. Lindsay is a great big sister. She is always cheerful and supportive. She is also willing to help out with tasks whether they be big or small. She is also willing to help until the task is done which is another great thing. I’ve always been amazed by Lindsay’s creativity and her ability to make cool things. I am lucky to have a supportive and kind sister. It’s great having Lindsay as a birthday buddy and I hope she has a great birthday and a great upcoming year!

Happy Birthday Linds! You are such a Sweet sister and auntie. It was really nice of you take Caleb and Julian to their swimming classes this year and we really appreciate everything you do. Hope you have a lovely day just like you!
Linds, I loved The Help as well! You are such a gem and seeing how much happiness has come into your life from marrying Spencer has made me happy as well. When you look back at your past 30 years I hope you look back with pride and contentment - I think you've lived them well.
Happy Birthday!!!
Happy Birthday Lindsay. You make ordinary days quite festive. I remember Rachel telling me how one day after a particular long freshman day at school, you made her some cocoa and before long her equilibrium had been restored. You have a gift to soothe and uplift. And you're pretty good at Easter Bonnie egg hunts too. I love you Lindsay. And I saw The Help tonight. Not quite like the book. But still very good and very worthwhile. Bonne Fete.
Love you so much babe, happy birthday!!!
Lindsay!! Happy Happy Birthday!!
It was great to see what you wrote for the skill you're most proud of -I've watched you make something out of nothing from the time you were tiny -like beautiful birthday cards from scraps of paper or just a really fun day out of a bunch of mundane happenings.
You just know how to make life better for everyone
around you.
Love you so very much - have the best day ever and may your wish for a classroom of your very own come true this year :)

Happy Birthday Lindsay!! I hope its a great one! Brownie ala mode is a great dessert!
Happy Birthday Linds!!! I've always appreciated your skill of making something from nothing too, a lot of great childhood memories seem to revolve around that. And we definitely share a love for chocolate! I always enjoy our phone conversations and any chance we get to hang out! Love you so much, have a great day!
Happy Birthday Linds!!
You have created some of the greatest and happiest memories in our family. I think I bequeathed some of my sweet tooth genes to you, but fortunately you are much better equipped to handle them. Have a wonderful day and year 30
Love, Dad
Hope you have a great birthday Linds! I was always amazed by your ability to 'create something from nothing' ... now your real test over the next few years is to figure out (when watching soccer with Spencer) which goals scored are the goals that are 'created from nothing' - a common phrase used by British soccer commentators that I'm guessing is used in N America too?
Thanks for your sweet comments !! - luv you guys! Spence says he has heard that term, Snej, and just explained it - I am excited to have an eye witness account of one of those.
Linds-
Happy belated Birthday!! I am amazed at your ability to always stay positive even in the face of adversity. I think it goes to your ability to create something from nothing. Usually people need some sort of stimulus to make them happy ie) a chocolate bar, scoring a goal, doing well on a test etc. but you arre able to be happy from nothing which is a great skill. Hope you had a great birthday love ya lots.
