Journaling:
Babe, I know that even though we have our share of stormy weather, the sun will always come out in the end, and there will even be a beautiful rainbow to celebrate. We just went through a particularly stormy night, but it looks like we’’ve weathered it through, and we will be just fine.
I want you to know that I feel blessed and lucky to have you in my life. I love you and cherish you with every bit of my being, and I am so sorry when my actions hurt you. I am far from perfect, and I thank you for your eternal patience with me.

Why do I scrap?
I scrap to preserve our memories, so that years from now, we can look back and remember these years. I scrap so our stories are captured, from the big events and vacations, to the little everyday moments we experience. I scrap to create beautiful albums for us to treasure and share with our families. I scrap to express myself artistically. I scrap to create beauty out of pixels and bytes, where I cannot with paint and canvas. I scrap to express what is in my heart, when it is bursting withjoy, and the tough times as well. Why do I scrap? I scrap for you and I scrap for myself.
