Even our sad moments are important in our lives, it builds us and makes us the person we are today. Altho this event happening right now will be very frightening to her and to you aswell, there will be something she "learns" from this experience. That not only a mum can love her but also other people that are close to her, like yerself. I do not know the whole story and I'm sorry if I hurt feelings. I love how you put something such tragically into a beautiful thing. Very comforting to read this.
All the best of luck on future to come and I hope all works out well in the end.
Nats.
You have both been blessings in one another's lives. Your love and caring will affect her life in ways that you will never know. God bless you, your grand daughter and her mother. (((((Hugs)))))
O my goodness. Your journaling is so touching. Prayers to you and your family. This is a gorgeous lo and sure to be treasured my her in years to come. ((HUGS))

i sit here wiping tears from my eyes--- i am moved by your journaling BUT what a beautiful page it turned out to be. i just wish you all the best and i hope you feel better soon. TFS!
Oh my - this is the first time I have ever cried over a layout. I am so sorry. The picture and the layout are so beautiful, as I'm sure your granddaughter is. Please know that so many of us said little prayers for you today & her today.
I'm so sorry, hopefully things will work out. My mom is raising my neice, I pray every day this doesn't happen to her. Kaylie is all my mom has (I live far away).
God Bless you, I'll be praying for you and your grandaughter.
Wow... I am amazed at this page... the journaling is so touching, but the portrait is stunning. You did an amazing job of telling the viewer how you feel about your granddaughter... so sweet and moving! I wish you the best!
this is one of the most powerful layouts I have seen in a long time...your journalling really speaks from the heart...thank you for sharing with us such a private moment.
I am so impressed with your lo and with the emotion you captured in it. I hope that it helped to ease your pain in some small way. I send prayers to you and your grandaughter.
Though painful to do, it is just as important to capture and journal the difficult times. They will become memories, too, and will be just as important as all the days of joy and laughter. You will so appreciate having done this remarkable page. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Oh this is so touching and beautiful. I hope you get to see her very soon::hugs::

Thanks for sharing!
I did this reality layout this past weekend after losing custody of my grandaugher, Alexis that I have raised since she was 6 months old. It has been a rough few days. I miss her terribly.
Journaling reads: Little did I know...That is would be the last time I would photograph your beautiful face, for a very long time. It never crossed my mind,on that bitter cold morning, it would be the last time I would take you to pre-school or fix you waffles for breakfast. The little routine things I have taken for granted over these past 4 years, became a really important on Feb 17th 2006. This is day you were taken by the state child protective services and unexpectedly, returned to your mother. You must have been so terrified that first night in a strange place and not having any idea why all of this was happening to you. Someday, I hope to explain the chain of events to you, so you will know what really happened. For the next five months you will be living with your mother, in the Isabella House and I will not be allowed to visit you. I know that it will be very difficult and bewildering, not being able to see all the people that you love and depend on. I also know that you have desperately wanted to be reunited with your mommy for a very long time. Perhaps this will be the beginning of rebuilding a new life with her and your baby brother. I wish you both healing and recovery in your journey.
******UPDATE******** ALEXIS WAS RETURNED TO ME 7 WEEKS LATER...SHE HAD LOST 12 POUNDS AND WAS VERY ILL. SHE HAS NOW RECOVERED AND IS DOING VERY WELL. THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR YOUR PRAYERS AND GOOD VIBES.
