Sarah's Love Letters Illustrated: "The Church Ladies"

"The Church Ladies"

I'm reading a new novel--"The Church Ladies" by Lisa E. Samson. In it is a snappy little quote that I can identify with:

"On the highway of motherhood I careen a few miles north of Peg Bundy and at least a hundred miles south of Elyse Keaton."

If you grew up in the early nineties...that one is classic.

Do you know this song?....
"What would we do baby, without us? What would we do baby, without us? 'Cause there ain't no nothin' we can't love each other through, what would we do baby - without us? La-la-la-la"

It's the theme from Family Ties! I love it!; February 18, 2006 at 11:56 PM

Just what I do...

What to put in the "About Me" spot...it's a little intimidating. Sortof like writing a personal ad. Me? I like long walks on the beach...no, really. I do. I kindof live for them, in fact...

Love Letters Illustrated is a scrapbook of sorts, about my life. Mostly, I write about scrapbooking and stamping...and growing boys and related adventures. I do more than my share of antique shopping and I can never have too many beach days.

*I believe that a scrapbook page should tell a story.

*I believe that the process of assembling papers and images and writing the story is a grace-filled work that soothes the troubled soul in its own way.

*I believe there is value in recording the difficult facets of one's story--and I do so because I believe that a scrapbook should reflect an authentic life.

*I believe in snappy titles...a good scrapbook page has a title that draws the viewer into it and makes them wonder what this story is all about.

*I believe in simple, unfussy, unpretentious paper-crafting.

*I believe there's always room for a few more sheets of paper and another yard of ribbon.

*I believe in recording good stories and running far from perfection.

So, what's up with you?
