Lost but not Forgotten...

This is my layout for the January contest on Keepsake Trends. I was supposed to scrap the most memorable moment of 2005. There are many memorable moments but this was a page I just had to scrap. It is a memorial to Buddy, Mason's old best friend!

Journaling on the back reads:

Mason, shortly after we moved into our new house in Utah, we decided to go for a walk. I put you in the stroller and handed you this puppy. Buddy was his name and you loved him so much. Buddy was your favorite thing. He went everywhere with you and helped mommy put you to sleep at night and even at church. While we were on our way to the park, you must have thrown Buddy overboard. (The gravity game was another favorite.) By the time we noticed and went back along our path, Buddy was gone. I was so sad. And Makenna even cried. I even considered putting Lost Dog posters on all the doors in the neighborhood. I think you have already forgotten Buddy and found a replacement for him, but the rest of us will never forget how much you loved him. Buddy, may you rest in peace!
Love, Mom

Besides this page, I finished two other scrapbook pages and about a dozen cards today. The cards were a QVC kit so I did those really fast. It felt good to get so much accomplished.
