Journaling:

WHY did it take me so long to figure out that it was okay to stop stressing?
WHY did I fear that something would go wrong every minute of the day?
WHY did it take this long to start understanding that I AM really a Mom?
WHY did it take so long to stop
doubting myself?
WHY did it take so long to start enjoying being a Mom?
WHY don’t I have enough arms to hold all of my babies at one time?
WHY aren’t there more hours in the day?
WHY are there always more questions than answers?

These are just a few of the questions that ran through my head on a daily basis during the early days of being a new mom. If that were not enough, I still have to keep track of what baby I was holding and remember which baby had been fed and which baby needed to be changed. It’s all such a blur now, I only wish that I could have figured out how to enjoy and relax in those early days. Sadly those days are gone forever, I feel like everyday was a struggle to survive. But don’t get me wrong, I would not change my life at all. I love the challenges and joys that are unique to being a Mom of triplets. This is a great life! October 2002

Special Techniques or Tips:

I took full advantage of the great colors and patterNs of the Artic Frog paper and created a not so typical "baby" layout. My exacto knife and micro-tip scissors got a nice workout, while using elements from the patterned paper to create a look to frame the photos and journaling area. The journaling was important to me on this layout so I chose black and white photos, and used acrylic paint to bring some color to the black and white photos. The finishing touch was the awesome Arctic Frog monster size Monogram rub-ons.
