Celebrating a Special, SOAR! Lady, Lindsay Baumgartner!

Lindsay has no idea that I’m doing this, but when a little birdie told me it was Lindsay’s birthday, I couldn’t resist!  Happy Birthday sweet and sassy Lindsay!!!  🙂

Lindsay is one of our three SOAR! Scholarship Recipients this year.  If you haven’t met her, you can CLICK HERE and learn a little about who she is, plus see the video she submitted to SOAR!

As you watch her video, you will soon find out how strong this woman is.  But if you really want to see the inner strength of Lindsay, CLICK HERE to read her weekly journey through this year’s SOAR! program.  She has faced so many challenges, inner fears, insecurities, and embraced the idea of risking it all to find the photographer and artist within her.  All three of our SOAR! gals, including myself, have faced unexpected challenges this year that was never in our “2010 plan”.  And yet, somehow we are all still going and becoming better and stronger women for it.  You can see exactly what I mean if you read any of Lindsay’s blog posts.  She is blooming as this incredible woman with clarity like never before.  Not to mention how awesome her photography is becoming!

Lindsay, I adore you.  I wish you the most wonderful birthday today.  May you feel celebrated all throughout the day.  You have no idea how much you’ve blessed my life this year.  I know that I’m not the only one who counts myself lucky, so crazy lucky, to have you in my life.

All our love,

Me Ra and Brian
