And she scrapbooked, too...

FamilyScrapbooking

Scrapbook layout "Great and Grand" — My grandfather and step-grandma holding baby Jude.

In case you can't actually read the journaling, this was Jude with my grandfather Emil Hilman and his second wife Grandma Virginia at Easter of 2003. Grandpa died just before Jabin was born in 2005, and although Virginia reads this blog, and I occasionally hear from her via e-mail, we haven't had the privilege of seeing her since he died, as she moved back to live with her family in the States. So scrapbooking these photos tonight was somewhat bittersweet.

Not to mention—WHERE DID THAT BABY GO?!!!

7 Things I'm Grateful For

May 1, 2017

Wow, so much has happened last week/will be happening this week that I'm going to be posting a couple times this week. For today, because it's Monday, because it's been a while, and because I'm much better at posting these moments on Instagram and Facebook than keeping my blog updated, here's a 7 Things summary of what's been going on.

Lucky

Yesterday was the four-month anniversary of Levi's heaven birthday. Thanks to some wonderful friends, I got to spend the weekend at a scrapbooking retreat, and chose to use that time to add pages to Levi's memory album. And while doing so, I remembered the reasons I have to be thankful.

Grieving Creatively

Jul 3, 2015

I already recorded too few memories of our short time with Levi on film. Now, while those memories are still as fresh as possible, I intend to scrapbook them all, and some that don't have pictures, too.
