Here’s a recent digital scrapbook layout I created. The journaling reads,

“At times I am overwhelmed as a mother to three. They all need my attention, and usually at the same time. Last week while sitting on the stairway reading with S. and having little sis and baby bro climbing on us, I felt a surge of frustration hit me.

S. exclaimed in her cheery 5 year-old voice, ‘This is crowded happiness!’

She was right! It brought a smile to my face and my attitude improved. Find the joy amidst the chaos. ~August 2007″
