Words for Wednesday
Hello fellow scrappers! It’s time once again for Words for Wednesday. How is it that weeks fly by so quickly these days!? My goodness! In that respect, I’d like to focus on the word “TIME” for today’s post. Perhaps a bit bland at first, but you can interpret this in sooo many different ways!
For a new mommy, sleepy time has to be the best time of day… Or night for that matter! For a Nana or Grandpa, time with grandkids is precious and so looked forward to, and sometimes just too long! 
For students, the countdown to a test or the end of summer break can’t be long enough! For Daddy’s, waiting for the day to end to get to spend time with the family can seem like forever. There are so many ways you can look at time.
All too often I find myself looking back on photos and longing to go back in time. It is taking some effort, but I’m trying to learn how to live in the moment! Does anyone else have the trouble of thinking, ok, when they’re older, it will be easier… I forget sometimes to just appreciate how wonderful life is RIGHT NOW, and appreciate the hurdles, heartaches, joys and special moments that are happening all around me! Sometimes I wish my babies could stay little forever, but that just isn’t happening!
So I created a little quote by Jim Croce to help inspire a “time” LO:
Here is the LO I created:
Journaling reads:
“This was your first day of BYU Preschool, so Mom took the afternoon off to spend some time with just you and me. We hiked up to Bridal Veil Falls, had lunch together at Olive Garden, and met your teacher, Mr. Brad, together. I cannot believe you are 7 this month. I will forever cherish this day and the time we were able to be just Mommy and Matthew. I will love you forever, I will like you for always, as long as I’m living my baby you’ll be.”
Ok, this is my very first time using 4Shared, so bear with me if this doesn’t work! Here is the quote in black, and here is the quote in white!
So go and scrap about a time that you want to catch and put in a bottle! Happy scrapping!
