It seems...I couldn't have said it better myself!!! It seems that it is ok for men to have a hobby but when you say "im going on a scrapbooking trip" SOME people look at you like you just said "Im going to cut my head off now". Like I tell my husband "If mama's not happy then nobody's happy". So, when's the next scrapbooking trip? stacyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8947496814157536474.post-52808205883509089392009-05-05T15:55:00.000-05:002009-05-05T15:55:00.000-05:00AB - I agree with both you and K. Scrapbooking is...AB - I agree with both you and K. Scrapbooking is not done in "place" of your family. It is done in "honor" of your family. How many times have you looked at pictures from your childhood and wished you knew more about the "moment"? Our children will not have to ask questions, they will just sit back and enjoy in the pictures and the stories you have told through our scrapbooking. I personally think I am a better mom since finding this hobby. Before scrapbooking, I had nothing for me. I felt as if my whole life was for my family and I felt drained. This has given me a creative outlet and something to look forward to. When a hobby brings you joy, you can't help but pass it on. And who do you pass it on to? Your family! We have a great group of friends and an awesome hobby to share with each other. And simply put in "Melissa" terminology... if you dont like it... bite me!

Everyon...AB, you couldn't have said it any better. Everyone who scrapbooks has a story to tell and document for their families. What took me a while to understand as a mom is that it makes me a better mom to have a hobby that I love. You have to make your interests a priority just like taking care of the kids and everything else. How wonderful that we have this creative outlet and we get to spend time with friends and family.
