S.A.H.M. - OUAS November 15th challenge

the new challenge at http://onceuponasketchblog.blogspot.com/2011/11/november-15th-challenge.html is to use the sketch...

and

Journalling criteria: This time the journalling criteria focuses on YOU as a woman OR ANY female in your life. What is the best thing about being a woman? Motherhood? Shopping? Make Up? Girls nights? Gossip? Your journalling can be as long as you wish and in any language, but you must journal at least 2 sentences on the best part of being a woman.

well i thought about what i like most about my life at the present, and i really love being a S.A.H.M. a stay at home mum.. i appreciate being able to be at home for my daughters. i have at times gone out and worked when my kids were younger,  so i know how hard that is..so that is what i have done this layout on... 


i have used pretty much all Kaiser papers, Nana's favorites and some homemade papers.. Kaiser chipboard and over lay...i have turned the sketch anti clockwise once..




thanks for dropping in, and i appreciate your comments!!

    Oh Lizzy! SO awesome to see a page about you. I love your deep and heartfelt journalling. So truthful too. I agree with you that being a SAHM is the most incredible thing and I am also so lucky to be able to do that for most of the time I have been a mum. This is one of my fave layouts of yours. Excellent work!

    I owe you something in the post...its coming! I just cant decide what yet LOL! I cant find the right thing. Anyway..it will be there soon. Thanks always for all the love you leave me. My days are getting better..but the emotions are getting stronger. :(
