7 & 1/2 Ben

I rarely hand journal. I now realize why! My handwriting is terrible. If you haven't figured out yet. I'm sure I'm just being too self critical. But, my "designer's eye" wont let me take my eyes off of my poor handwriting. Oh well. another page done and in the book.




Journaling reads:

Benny, You are too cute for words. That face, those eyes, your smile, Oh the freckles upon your nose. When ever we go anywhere the first thing people say is, "Oh, my goodness, Isn't he just adorable!" I smile and agree wholeheartedly, But, really you are so much more than an adorable face.

You are amazingly funny, happy, tender, absent minded, inquisitive, quite, innocent, respectful, determined, ornery and gentle.

Everything a 7 1/2 year old boy should be.

    Great page!! Your son is just too cute :) I don't think your handwriting is as bad as you think. At least yours is readable!

    I like how you extended the word embellishment out with your handwriting too, and all the inking is fab. Most importantly, you captured a 'snapshot' of a time in his life. What a gift...

    Nice job....you got "the look" going on, girl. Love all that you got going on, and yet..totally cohesive. That's the sign of a good scrapper.

    oh yea...and a cute subject like that, don't hurt either!
