92 years young...

My grandmother is the most amazing women that I know. She is 92 years old and is having the time of her life. She still makes her own dresses, makes adult bibs for the local hospice and wheelchair bags for the handicapped. She is the most loving, optimistic, giving person that I know. She is in love with life and uses her talents to help others. She truly is someone to look up to for so much.

Jonas and I visited her at her today and we had so much fun! We ate lunch together and headed outside for some pictures. I have wanted to take some pictures of her for years now but just never have so I am so glad that I followed through with it. She looked radiant, happy and undeniably in love. See, even at 92 she has fallen in love. She told me that it doesn't matter how old you are, when you are in love, it all feels the same. My grandfather died a few years ago and since then she has been living her life just as she always did. She met her boyfriend, Charles, while on one of her trips that she takes with her church. She always saw him on the bus but never talked to him. SO one day she decided to sit next to him and they started talking and found out that they had so much in common. His wife had died about twelve years ago and was a Chaplin at their local church. He had cancer which led to the loss of his left eye and used to be a Chaplin for death row inmates. He has lived an amazing life just as my grandmother.

Jonas is her 28Th great-grandchild. How incredible is that? It is just amazing to sit and talk to her about life and love. She gives me hope that love is everywhere and in everyone of us. Grandmother I love you. Thank you for all of the talks that we have had and for all the amazing things you have shown me. You live in my heart and I am a better person for that. -Lindsey




This is one of the outfits that she made for herself. The polka-dots are an expression of her personality.
These are some of the hats that she crochets for people.

These are the adult bibs that she gives to the hospice.

My 26th birthday!

I love birthdays. Most people dread them because it means another year has gone by and you are another year older. I embrace it. This past year has meant a lot to me and so much has changed. I feel that I am older and wiser, even more excited and in love, I feel that I have even more to give and I am so eager to learn. I love the stability of today and the uncertainty of tomorrow. It keeps things interesting.

Today I spent my birthday with the people that I love most. I got calls from friends and family that just wanted to say happy birthday and that they love me. I even got a text from my middle school best friend, Katie Wood, who lives in DC. Just to know that so many people love me and remember my birthday makes me feel so much love.

My life is pretty amazing. I am in love with the greatest man, I have the sweetest baby and the most loving family. I get to do what I love and I am happy. I have no regrets from this past year because every decision and every moment has led me to today. I am so blessed to wake up beside the love of my life everyday and to be at home with my son so I can watch him grow. I live in a happy home filled with so much love. I couldn't wish for anything more...
