There are several reasons that I scrapbook, most of them I've written here before.
Last week, so many events, led me to reflect on my blessings and my sweet family.
Even a song on the radio, by Diamond Rio,' One More Day', which inspired this layout.
I have a sort of irrational fear of dying young and that my children will never really know me,
which is just one of the reasons I scrapbook.
My sister, Jenni, has some 'Rules to Live By' on her blog and this is sort of an homage to that.
I wanted to write down just a few things I would make sure to tell her, if I only had one more day.
1. I love you!
2. Be kind, even when you don't feel like it.
3. Smile, a lot!
4. Don't be afraid to cry.
5. You will get your heart broken, but love anyway.
6. Save your kisses.
7. Give hugs freely.
8. Stay close to God.
9. Take chances, sometimes. :)
10. Be Yourself!
There are so many other things I hope to teach her throughout the course of her life,
but those are the first few that came to mind.
I love being a mama!
XOXO,
Holly & Co.
Love this post! You are such a good Mommy!
