Hey! You! Yeah, you! Could you bring this momma some coffee?
I'll be sharing my struggles and triumphs as I try to pin down inspiration while juggling an 8 year old, 6 year old, 5 year old, and 5 month old (oh, and also navigating my chronic illness). There'll be lots of humor, probably more than a little complaining, and just all around good times.
I hope you'll come along for the journey! (Don't forget the coffee; I'm serious about that! )
My daughter scrapbooks her daughter (my granddaughter's) school years. Lyv is in 7th grade. Amanda has also done Lyv's dance years from when she was 2 and is still going. It's fun to see her interests evolve and how much she's grown.
We can't lose track of our lives. I need to scrapbook pictures that my mother had of everyone. She is gone now and it's been sad. I appreciate your entry. I am glad you enjoy scrapbooking. We need to enjoy life is right
Nice entry!
At least you learn from experience. I can't say the same about me.
There's a Turkish saying which shows my not learning from experience. "A blind person is one who falls the same way twice at the same place."
Merry Christmas! That's a horrible situation to be in, but I'm glad you got to spend some quality time with your mother-in-law. Nice to see someone else who's monthly blogging so I thought I'd drop by!
Sorry to hear about your mother-in-law. I think you made a good decision. It sounds like keeping her happy and comfortable is the best avenue. I wish you all the best. Happy Thanksgiving to you as well, despite the situation.
Prompt: "I want to live my life, not record it." Jackie Kennedy Write about this quote in your Blog entry today.
I want to do both! I am a scrapbooker as well as a writer. I love taking photos and writing the stories that mean a lot to me. Recording my life helps me to reflect on it and really soak in the lessons it has for me. It also helps me to memorialize certain fleeting seasons of my life that I know I will want to look back on it.
That said, I don't want to do so much recording that I forget to pay attention to the present. It's always a constant battle for balance.
