Baby Girl - Once Upon a Sketch May

Hi there! I hope your day is going well!

Yesterday I sat and created a layout for the May OUAS which is to use this sketch
and to use numbers on your layout..
Well when I was thinking about this challenge my first thoughts were nothing like what my layout ended up like.. The first thing I did was search for a  photo.. and when I saw the photo I have used I sat and looked at it and got very emotional.. I sat and thought about how the time has flown and this little chubby bubby is now an adult.. So I wrote a little poem and I have numbers in my poem. I also have some journalling to do with the poem and photo..

Baby girl..


and some closer views..

 This photo is of Hannah when she was around 6 months old and the way she is gripping her toes with her chubby hands just melts my heart!!
And speaking of heart melts, I do wish each Mum a very happy Mothers day tomorrow I hope it is a day filled with love, and for anyone who may feel a bit sad because of loss I hope you can find some happy memories from the special people who have been in your life.. 

Thanks for coming by and as always I do appreciate the comments you leave me too...xx
