Now, I struggled with attempting to create a page with the quote for the Digi-Scrap Challenge on Splitcoaststampers. I'm not a person to talk about myself, so I like scrapping 'events' and not feelings or attitudes. My photos are of a time of fun in the sun walking on the beach and rocks. As you can see from the bottom photo..... I walked too close to the waves, as they got my socks, shoes and pants soaked! EEkk! Those were the only shoes I had with me. It so reminded me of the time (when I was 12) that I road my bike through a huge puddle and got stuck in the middle, and got my shoes, socks and pants wet there too. Boy, did I get in trouble that long ago day with my parents..... had to write a 1000 word essay on 'obedience'. Now, when I got wet this time.... those same feelings of failure came back out. My husband (I love him!)... just laughed and said they'll dry eventually. He even finished the drying process with a hairdryer when we got back to the hotel room. He's amazing!
Well, I do dread responsibility sometimes.... but I know you need that in order to provide for your family. We are blessed that we can have fun as well as provide for our living at the same time!
Thanks for stopping by!

Thanks for playing, the quote is hard because so many of us have been taught to be responsible. We have a difficult time letting go a bit. There is a different world of folks out there, now, and I guess the fact that a teen had posted the quote made it all the more meaningful! Love the layout and colors you used for this page!

I love your page, Diane. It's so well laid out and I really like what you shared in your description. I'm not much on sharing the personal feelings either!
