Although both of my boys have left very dear footprints on my heart, my youngest sons' heart surgery at the beginning of the year really stands out.
He really surprised me in every way. His surgery went perfect and his recovery went just as well! Within 6 days of surgery he was up and running around! I had no idea this strong little boy was capable of such a miracle! Thank You Lord!
I hadn't thought about it like this until I seen the challenge I mentioned above but the footprints left by the miracle of life are firmly placed in my heart.
I thought the layout that I made after his recovery really fit with my "footprints". (Sorry for the glare!)
Thanks for checkin me out! =)
Happy Scrappin!!

Amy, what a blessing you've shared with all of us and preserved on this great layout! It's important for us to remember to memorialize the harder parts of life too, not just the happy things! Thanks for sharing your super star son (and layout) with us at SOS! God bless!
ReplyDeleteAww, what a brave little guy! Thanks for sharing his story. What a lovely layout! Love the title work! Great job on the challenge! Thanks for joining in with us!
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone! Yes, he is NOW very blessed with EXcellent health, thank you for your well wishes and compliments! Also, your right, even the hard times should be captured, they are important too! On this LO I just really wanted to show his wonderful happy face, although I had to resort to tooting noises to get the smiles, they were well worth it, and I'd even do it again! LOL. Thanks again, I'll be back for sure! =)
ReplyDeleteSo glad his surgery and recovery went well. What a nice layout to mark such a huge event. I like that you included so many pictures. Good job!

It just shows that scrapbooking is such a lovely way to preserve our life momories, even the tough times, as they make us appreciate everything so much more. I love the celebratory look to your layout, I guess it captures exactly how you feel :-) K x
ReplyDeleteI don't think I could have done a layout before his surgery. I couldn't concentrate on anything and they probably would have looked a little off.. I'll have to post the layout when I finish it of his "I'm Back and I'm 4!" party for his St Patty's birthday just 2 months after his surgery, No one can believe that he was ever "down" for a moment!=) Thank you everyone for your comments!
ReplyDeleteGreat layout, love the colors! Glad your son recovered so quickly!!!
