"Be assured that from the first day we heard of you,
we haven’t stopped praying for you,
asking God to give you a wise mind and spirit attuned to His will,
and so acquire a thorough understanding of the ways in which God works.
We pray that you’ll live well for the Master, making Him proud of you as you work hard in His orchard.
As you learn more and more how God works, you will learn how to do your work.
We pray that you’ll have the strength to stick it out over the long haul--
not the grim strength of gritting your teeth but the glory-strength God gives.
It is strength that endures the unendurable and spills over into joy,
thanking the Father who makes us strong enough to take part in
everything bright and beautiful that He has for us."
Colossians 1:6-12

If Sara-Claire were a movie chacter, who would she be?
You make me grin, smirk, beam and laugh more.
You make me sing, glow, pray and hug more.
You make me remember that my head is always laying on God's chest, just listening to His heart beat love for me.
You make me really jealous of your hair.
You make me hug more...did I mention that?
You make my mornings full of conversation (because you're the only one up when I am).
You make me stop and appreciate the moment - every single one.
You make me laugh off things that try to hurt my feelings.
You make me more of who I want to be - that me that you see me as.
You make me wanna be just like you when I get to heaven-even the hair, especially the hair.

I Just Want You To Know......
I could name a million memories. There are so many that bring a smile to my face. Some even make me laugh out loud- my neighbors must think I'm weird right now. Any of these could be my favorite memory of you and me together. From blowing our horns on stage together for the first time, to dancing along to Britney, or crying to Sideshow. Beach trips, stage lights, babysitting insane boys, Jackson's burger burps and peanut butter cravings, Chicago, Wicked! Introducing me to the best man I've ever known ;) And a million other things... But here's my favorite: a sweet, curly-headed cutie sitting beside me before rehearsal 7 years ago. You were so friendly and accepting, and you actually seemed interested in who I was and that I was heartbroken over a boy named Jeremy. And that was the beginning of a beautiful friendship that still to this day I have not found anything to compare. "Because I knew you, I have been changed for good." Love you!
Have an awesome birthday, S-C!!

I have so many wonderful memories of us as little girls! It was always like a fairytale when we were together. We loved to play dress up and play with our babydolls. We always pretended to be princesses in a far away castle. I remember Gran making pigs in blankets at her and papas big, wonderful house! We had our own little room there filled with babydolls, and other wonderful things! As we got older, I would come visit and we would spend our time at Hunters baseball games hanging out with all your friends! Forever in my mind we will always be those two curly headed little girls, that were dressed like dolls, and loved each other so very much! Have a wonderful birthday CareCare! We love you to the moon and back!

I can't believe it has only been just a couple of years ago that we worked together! I could tell from the beginning that you were something special. You have the kindest heart and the warmest smile that makes you a perfect fit for the career you have chosen. I am so honored to say that I got to work with you and experience your first year of teaching. Through the mounds of paperwork and all of the meetings, I never once heard you complain. I know that in the past few years your life has seen many changes. I'm sure there have been many smiles as well as the tears, but please know that I have thought of you each step of the way.
I hope you have a WONDERFUL birthday!!!

I remember the first day I met Sara-Claire. We were hanging out in the pool and after talking we both thought it was funny how it felt like we already knew each other. It was true. I had an instant ease and connection with SC. She is the easiest person to talk to and the sweetest person I think I have ever come across. She's like a little walking cupcake:) She's in the right profession because she's amazing at teaching people things. She has a wealth of knowledge on how to educate people and I'm so lucky she can help me teach Rowan what he needs to know. I've had lots of fun with her on our trips to Mississippi, Florida, and Arizona and Im looking forward to us exploring...Italy! I'm so glad I can now call her my sister! Bye Square-Square and I hope you have a wonderful Birthday!!

My favorite memory of Sara-Claire is us lounging in the Archusa lake after school talking about EVERYTHING under the sun with no care in the world. We started calling those days our "do-me-rite" Wednesdays bc it was the only day of the busy week we could do whatever we wanted! Oh and walking out to our shoe-polish covered cars after school one day... Those boys were silly!! We had some great memories and big laughs together!
Happy birthday to you sweet girl!! :)

One story I remember with Sara Claire happened the first time we all went snow-skiing in Wolf Creek, CO. Sara-Claire and I had been doing so well the entire trip, going on all the bunny slopes and even one or two easy blue slopes. Towards the end of the trip, we became particularly fond of going into the powder trails that cut between trees.
At the end of one of our bunny slopes, we decided to go onto a powder trail that had a sign marked 4X4 Parking, which seemed like it would be a fun trail, haha!! Once on this "powder" trail, we quickly realized we had accidentally taken a turn into the truck parking lot, which ended in a several foot drop off. OOPS :D
Instead of trudging through the big parking lot back to the ski lift, we reasoned it would be a good idea to climb back up the 4x4 trail to the bunny slope. After what seemed like an hour trudging up a hill with waist deep snow, we finally made it back to the bunny slope huffing and puffing, but with all our ski gear in tact :)
This is just one of the many silly, crazy, and fun stories I remember with Sara-Claire growing up. She has turned into such a beautiful and caring young woman and I hope she has a Wonderful Hootin' Tootin' Birthday Celebration
Love you guys!!

As we get another year older and another year wiser there is still a few things that remain the same: First: You have always and will continue to remain the sweetest person I know!! You have the biggest heart and would do anything in the world for anybody!! Second: Your spirit is contagious!! You have this way about you to light up a room and make even the darkest of days brighter!! Never loose that!!! And last but not least you never forget your friends!! Even if we don't see each other for long periods of time, when we do it's like no time has passed!!
I love you Princess and you have been a big part of my life and have occupied some of my best memories!!! I don't have to list them all because we share them equally!!! I hope u have the best birthday a girl could have because you deserve it!!! Miss u Sara-Bear!!
Love, Shana
Happy birthday SC! A picture is worth a 1,000 words so I’m thinking if I post 5 pics that remind me of you, then it’s worth 5,000 special words on your b’day. Although math was never our thing, I think it’s a valid point to make. ;). This wordiness works perfectly since we both know that I’m not the strong and silent type. When thinking of the impact you have had on my life since we met 16 years ago, I can’t help but smile. We have shared so many great memories together and I’m so fortunate to have such a genuine and silly friend. Some of my fondest memories over the past 16 years include: our first cruise, bachelorette trip to NOLA and Disney, baking burnt love cakes, eating chips and salsa during late night chats, roses, first (double) dates in the Honda, beach trips, plays at LLT, Washington DC beat down, and the list could go on forever. I am so glad that our paths crossed so many years ago in S.W.A.T. class. You are the true example of a great friend… loving, compassionate, empathetic, genuine, kind, and of course smart aleck when needed. I adore you for so many reasons and hope you have a fabulous birthday, friend. I love you with all of my butt, I would say my heart… but we all know that my butt is bigger! Love you Sae-Clae!

I have so many memories of sweet SC that come to mind. Considering that I was probably her oldest playmate growing up - that made everything so much more special to me. Sunday lunch & afternoon swimming at her grandmother's in Pachuta comes to mind. Playing Barbie dolls, jumping on the trampoline & playing in her treehouse were also some very fond memories. But, my favorite memory is being invited to her Miss America slumber party that included dressup & makeovers. I have a picture from it that I love. Brings back many memories that are SO close to my heart! Happy Birthday Sara Claire! I love you!!!

Sara is the sweetest person I know. She is an excellent teacher she makes learning for our babies fun. She's always singing and dancing with the kids and always making fun crafts. You couldn't ask for a better teacher. More than being a great teacher she's a great friend. I can talk too her about anything and she always listens. Hope that we are teacher and assistant and friends forever. Love you girl. Happy Birthday.. Karen
I met Sara Claire at a play audition in 2007. Of course, I could write a novel about all the good times we had at Mississippi State University. I'll give you the abridged version. Masquerade party for a friend, James Bond party, ABC party, the back to school black out. It's been more than just parties. Sara Claire was the friend who broke the news about the unfaithful lover. I was honored when I was mistaken for her hot sister in New Orleans. I wonder if the OHIO baseball team remembers us. I try to model my life after Sara Claire. Her patience, open arms and acceptance of everyone is what I admire most. I feel my life is has become richer because I have SC as a friend. Happy birthday darling. Miles may keep us apart but our friendship binds us together.
I love you! ~Tori Shaw
