Fonts: Bickham Script Pro and Goudy Old Style. Journaling reads: "We usually see this pond from the perspective of the inset photo, but this day we
explored on the path from the house to the beach, and suddenly found a blue stillness graced by a young family of mallard ducks."

And finally, another one of mine, a bit more personal and intense, "Never, Ever Forget {That I Love You}:

Heather Taylor, Never, Ever Forget

Some back story: Allen has never slept well, and to this day he still sleeps in our bed or else his nightmares would awake him enough so that he would stay awake all night (trust me on this). And if he takes a nap, he wakes up feeling some combination of mad/sad--he still is incapable of verbalizing what goes on for him. Anyway, a couple of days ago he fell asleep in the living room after a really long bike ride with his dad, and when we went to carry him into bed, he woke up... and we ended up with a 2-hour screaming fit on our hands. *sigh* Being the parent of a super-bright child is not often easy. Anyway, the next day it was as if it never had happened--for him.

  2. I hate to hear of Allen's sleepless nights. Hopefully with time the nightmares/terrors will subside. I used to sleepwalk and now don't. Would wake up in the closet(go figure)-- lol!! Now I sleeptalk, which the DH thinks is funny... me not so much...as I have no recollection - who knows what secrets he is getting out of me at night!! Your pages are awesome. I love the kit -- a little dramatic flair to the pages with the pop of red -- just love 'em. You are so arty!!!!
