Always & Forever

It’s funny how our lives turn out. I had always assumed that I would one day get married and have kids but every now and then I will get this surreal feeling like I’m living in a dream – or living someone else’s life. There are days when I will sit in awe and watch my kids playing together and I think to myself – holy cow!! I have THREE kids!? These kids are all amazing and healthy and smart and sweet and they are all MINE! On this one day in particular, I had snapped a photo of my eldest son – my first born who is so very much like me. He always follows the rules, never strays from the path, is a natural leader and perfectionist and as a result, very hard on himself. He loves order and schedules and is suppose to set good examples for his younger siblings.

Upon seeing this photo however, I was reminded of how very sweet and innocent and young he still is. How much he still needs to be loved and nurtured and cared for; to be led and to be allowed to make mistakes and to not be perfect all the time. He is still my sweet angel baby – always has been and always will be.

I used the gorgeously grungy Wonderland Collection from 7 Dots Studio to create this layout - just love how well it works with black and white photos and it's also perfect for creating boyish layouts as well.

Thank you so much for your visit today.  Wishing you all a wonderful long weekend and a Happy Easter to all - Hope the Easter bunny is good to everyone :>
