Remembering...

Found a picture of my son and his 1st grade teacher, tucked away in an envelope buried deep in a scrap bag I haven't used in a number of years. I think my mother-in-law must have taken the pic and passed it on to me while at a crop. How thankful I am that she took this photo, it's one of those things I never think to document, the kiddos and their teachers. But it's such a meaningful memory to have, documenting your teacher and that special bond that develops in a school year. Finding this picture was even more bittersweet because she passed away just a few short months after my son had moved on to 2nd grade. She was a wonderful woman and I'm so grateful I had the chance to scrapbook this memory for my son. =) T

  12. I love it really much! I have just started scrapping, not good at it yet, but I have a lot of ideas and happy to get new ones. I make clothes myself, and now I decided to change fabrics to paper for some time.

    I like it a lot, and I want to do something like that from my daughter too!

    Great workd!
