Scrapbooked- YUP I really, really scrapbooked :P

It has been 3.5 years sinc eI last scrapbooked... Oh my how the time has quickly passed. I was losing my luster for it before I got sick and then once I was busy reassembling the pieces of my life scrapbooking didnt seem to have a place. I have been doing a lot of soul searching and I feel the need to Scrap once again... It's a visual jurmal of sorts, a colourful gratitude list and a way for me to keep note of the tiny and sometimes monumental things that are common occurances in life. :)

My gf Denise belongs to a group which challenges u to scrap to a word... the word was "good" and since it was an easy one I decided that I would use it in my layout on Bean...

the journalling reads:

"There was a time in that perfection waas not only wanted ( from myself) by me but something I wanted from all. In the years of being a Mom I have learned to embrace "GOOD NUF". Michaela has taught me to see dirty feet with grass blades stuck to them, not just as "GOOD NUF" but as a natural delight. I see this moment in time and I see her wearing her patch (doing what she hated but what ws required of her) and also doing her, summer, school work.

DIRTY FEET?? NOT an issue. Michaela strengthening her eyes and her mind?

"GOOD NUF" (and more!!)
