...wishes

this layout was in the fall issue of
Canadian Scrapbooker
the little cards on the front

open up to reveal what pictures i *wish* i had.

~Those animal pictures i always seem to miss. Tailor (rabbit) sleeping on his back and the way Sheriff cocks his little puppy head. That great blue haron that flies over our house almost daily...just never ready!

~My Saviour, my Lord Jesus Christ!

~When I told the children that they were going to have a cousin...the batteries ran out just as i was about to take your picture!

~the wonderful facial expressions of Dada reading and telling stories :)

~Grandad holding his great-grand babies.

~...your eyes...the way they looked at me on the day we met and only God knew that we would be married 2 1/2 years later!

~a picture of Dada when i told him i was pregnant...and the expression on his face when he saw his babies!

~Andrew...you were too quiet! You were almost two and you decided to sprinkle glitter over my entire bedroom...i asked "what are you doing?" you replied "making your bedroom pretty!"

~those times that butterflies land on you!

~Breanne's first hold of her long awaited for baby sister Emma!

and

~"faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of faith is to see what you believe" St. Augustine...one picture i will never have is one of the expression on my face when i look into the most wonderful and beautiful face of my saviour, the one who died for my sins, when i fall at His feet and praise Him forever more. That sweet and blessed day when nothing else will matter.

may God bless you with a wonderful weekend...see you Monday!
