autism layout

[real.life]

4.8.09 On the 2Peas mb, someone challenged the moms of kids with autism to do a layout about their kids for Autism Awareness Month. So I also decided to do this as a quick product challenge for myself by grabbing a few supplies and leaving my scraproom to create with them. The journaling reads: Paige: It's been a couple years since your autism diagnosis and the progress you've made is just incredible. Lately, things seem to be coming together for you and you are able to reveal more of yourself to us. I love getting to know more about you and what you are thinking! Keep it coming, kid, you're doing great!!

I grabbed the phone and went to investigate. I could see nothing, but the "pounding" continued. Right then, a woodpecker flew from the back wall of our house to our porch. It was so loud! I thought for sure someone was trying to break in. It's

June 29 Lauren finally started summer camp today, so I had an hour to play with paper and glue. :) I love this picture of Bluebeard Paige and it's not really as dark on the layout as it is in the picture of the layout, but what can you do... I especially loved digging into my overlay stash - I always forget what I have in there and then I get to fall in love with it all over again! :)
