movies. She is nice and pretty and shes my best buddy. She is my friend. She makes me happy. Sydneys mom Karen Pizette says her daughter calls Lindsay her best friend and the whole family adores Lindsay. Shes been an incredible friend to Sydney. Weve been so blessed. She notes that many family memories include Steudtner including a photo taken of the girls together every 4th of July. Adds Pizette. Its hard for those with disabilities to make close friendships. It takes special people like Lindsay who speaks with her heart. She really has a gift. Soon Steudtner will be off to college with studies socializing and campus life on her mind. But shes committed to making Sydney a part of it. Plans are already made for the Pizette family to visit so Syd- ney can see Lindsays dorm room experience the college environ- ment and attend a football game. Sydneys mom admits Steudtners departure to college is bittersweet. Were so happy for her but were going to miss her. We know well always be in touch. As for Lindsay though she will major in Interior Design she plans to maintain her affiliation with Best Buddies. Sydney has become such a part of my life as well as all the special education students says Steudtner. They always smile and make my day brighter. I would love to work with them when Im in college.
