letter U

Hello everyone!

Gabi's here bringing you another letter from our Alphabeth challenges serie. Today we are going to scrap letter U. At first I thought about word unique, I wanted to make a page about my little daughter but then I decided to create a page about my husband and me to celebrate our anniversary,  so I ended up with a word US. Here is my page.

Journaling: This is US. Today exactly 11 years later after the day we met.So much has changed since that first day. Life is quite an adventure with you and I love every second of it. Thousands and thousands kilometres are behind us. We visited so many beautiful places and made so many unforgettable memories together. We are not only the two of us now, we are a family of four. We moved several times during the past couple of years and I can't wait to finally settle down in our new house soon. So many things have changed but one thing will always be the same: I love you! FOREVER.

Journal: Since you've taken off the uniform something has changed. You're lost. I'm lost. Some days I'm mad at the military for what they took and did not give back. After 20 years there's this big hole. In you. In me. In our life. 2010

 Journaling: This is the part of being a mom that I find the hardest. The times when it is up to me to teach you the lessons in life that are hard to take. And then watch you sad or angry because of it. I know these lessons are important and must be taught, but believe me when I tell you how much it hurts me to see you hurt. Even for the simplest reasons I hate it. You were upset with me when I took this picture because I was making you share a favorite toy with your brother and you wanted it all to yourself. No, not the end of the world by any means but I know that this is just the beginning and there will be many more times in the future that I will have to step in on much more important topics. I hope that somewhere inside yourself you know that I do it because I love you, not because I am trying to be unfair.

Here's mine. I had lots of possible photos for "unfair" but went with "unbelievable" when this photo flashed passed on my screen saver and reminded me how stupid I still feel whenever I see it!
