I’m kind of proud of all of the ten to fifteen scrapbooks that I’m in the middle of doing. Has anyone ever really completed a scrapbook? I’ve been doing the scrapbooks for almost 13 years. It’s not the layout or stickers that I’m the most proud of. It’s the subject matter. . . my daughters. I wanted to have a record of their lives. So I started scrapbooking and taking lots of photographs. Sometimes they help me put them together, which is harrowing and fun all at the same time. Someone said I am a bit of a control freak with the scrapbooks.
Someday the scrapbooks will belong to them. So I better learn to let go and remember that I’m still the mom even when they are all grown up. Someday there will be grandchildren and new scrapbooks.
Oh my gosh that is a long time to be working on something, but then again, it will be worth it when your done and a treasure for your daughters.
wow – you have many going on. I used to make them but do not anymore – well, I do keep a running run for the year – and then have two pages per month. It is at least something – but it sounds like you have some GEMS in the works – and will be treasured for a very long time. 🙂
I so know what you are talking about!! Both on the working on a scrapbook for years, and letting go of the control. But keep it up because it is all wroth it. Tiffany
