And, I'm spent.

[LenaGardner]

I did the hardest 2-page spread of my life last night and I was wondering if I could have some feedback on it and reassurance that it's not too odd before I print it. While working on my pregnancy albums, I was forced to face the reality that David hadn't been there for Naomi's birth. I started to do one page about it, and then couldn't. I had to make it a two-page layout to fit all of the emotions in. By the time I was done my chest physically hurt and then I dreamt I fell down the stairs and lost 4 teeth last night. (I only dream unpleasant things when I'm thinking of unpleasant things...) The reason I'm sharing it is that this album has to be ordered by midnight to use my coupon, and I can't show this to David until Thursday when I get to see him for Family Day. So I'll be printing him without him reading it first. He's totally laidback about things, so I'mnot worried exactly, just would like some reassurance. It's not meant for her to read and understand when she's young, it will be for when she's a little older, and will be in my pregnancy album for her :)

Thanks for looking!

I left you some feedback on your page, but basically, YES it's a beautiful page, and I cried through it. I'm so glad you guys made it work. :)

OMGoodness, Lena...I am seriously crying. This is just an amazing gift to give to your daughter...Your journaling is just beautiful...I can't imagine all the emotions that went into writing this. It is perfect in every way. :wub:

BTW, I dream about losing teeth a lot...I've read and been told it's a sign that you feel you're not in control in some aspect of your life. Interesting, huh?
