I think you should work on making other people feel better about themselves by being a little less PERFECT all the time. ;) juust kidding. Seriously, though. You are the coolest, happiest, most talented girl i've ever met. Keep it up. :)

Dearest, Darlingest, Lindsay doodle bugs,
Those all sound like worthy goals. #32 should include "or when my mom needs me to" :) Seriously, I am so proud of you & love you beyond the moon.
Love,
Mother

Umm, it's not much of a New Year's Resolution list, when you do a majority of it already, Doodles. Oh well, either way, it's motivation to add some of these to our own lists of self-improvement! Love you!

What a fabulous list. I have to say that you already do all of those things, but it's wonderful that you want to keep improving. Complacency is simply not for you :). Good luck with all that stuff. You are amazing and I love you!!!

Ah girl, you're THERE. Seriously. You're such an amazing, happy, cool, down-to-earth, friendly person. I think that was a list of things you've already achieved. A great list, all the same :)
