I am Bailey Lofaro

I am….  Bailey Lofaro

I am..
A small town, family loving, die hard Mizzou fan
An older brother that protects and loves me
Spending time with my family, and never getting enough of them
Dominoes with my mimi on a rainy, sunday morning
The daughter of two loving parents
A hopeful University of Missouri nursing school grad
A child, puppy lover, selfless and outgoing heart
A sensitive, emotional high schooler with a big, carefree heart.

I am…
Good times and memories with friends I will never forget
Coffee in the morning, ice cream at night type of girl
Love on my puppies until there's no love left to give
A preacher of God and his amazing work, always knowing I am third
A lover of any time spent with grandma, knowing my days with her are numbered
A hater of cancer, but a hopeful cure finder
Boutiques, dainty jewelry, shopping trips with my mom and friends
A hard worker, but don't do well under pressure
Putting others before myself, and treating them the way I would like to be treated
A history of bullying, but a testimony of god's presence
Imperfect, not always innocent, people lover, and believer in love at first sight

I am…
“Even so, it is well with my soul.” (Phillip Paul Bliss)
“The Lord will fight for you. You need only to be still.” (Exodus 14:14)
“Love is not blind, love sees what is most true.” (Vanna Bonta)

“Being happy isn't having everything, maybe it's about stringing together all the little things, and learning to enjoy them.” (The Sisterhood Of the Traveling Pants)

  9. Lovely, Bailey! I admire your open and carefree heart, your willingness to put others first, your dedication to your family. I relate to your lines about playing dominoes with your Mimi and cherishing your time with her. I'm sure she's crazy about you. Thanks for sharing a bit of who you are here. XO

  10. Hi Bailey! I love your line about believing in love at first sight! I definitely believe in it too. I also loved the part where you talking about spending as much time with your grandma as you can. I do the same with my grandma. Great job!
