Description: The first day of school for 2020 for my three boys (the Australian school year begins at the end of January). My eldest started Grade 3 and my twins are in Prep (the first year of formal schooling, which some of you would call 'Kindergarten'. Just to be extra confusing, Kindergarten is what we call Preschool in our state).

Hyperthyroidism

aurian — Fri, 14 Feb 2020 04:14:13 +0000

by: aurian

Description: I usually like to scrap about upbeat things but I challenged myself to use a kit that is less than cheery. I journalled a bit about the Graves Disease (hyperthyroidism) diagnosis I was given in December 2018, and consequently spent 2019 medicated and in recovery from. It was a tough year, and it zapped every bit of physical and creative energy I had, while caring for three preschoolers/toddlers at home (and school/activities for my eldest). I am finally starting to feel more 'myself' again but it is truly a ticking timebomb as to whether I'll remain in remission or need treatment again in the future (Graves is an autoimmune condition, so life-long). *** Made for SSD February Passport Challenge #15: Color *** (also for SSD 14th Birthday Challenge #11 - Pocket Letter) #moody - by Sweet Shoppe Designers (retired, I think??)

Liam's Cover Page

aurian — Sat, 25 Jan 2020 23:15:48 +0000

by: aurian

Description: All layouts have a story, and this one definitely does. So here we go... it's finally time to work on my twin boys' baby books, even though they just turned 5 years old. Liam (pictured in this layout) was born at 30 weeks gestation after a very complicated pregnancy, which took a long time to process and move forward from. I have since had another child (a little girl, now almost 3 years old), but while time can heal some wounds, you certainly never forget. My twin boys have started to ask me why their baby books aren't on the family shelf, alongside their older brother and younger sister's, so it is now time. This layout is the inside cover page for Liam's book.
