Back On The Bandwagon Again....
Friday night, I took the plunge and decided to join a scrapbooking group so I could / would finally get around to scrapbooking again. I never know what I am going to scrap at these groups since Zackery is usually such a sensitive subject to most but once I told everyone there (it was a small group of only 6 of us) they were most receptive towards my scrapbooking him. They even went as far as asking me questions about him. I am so greatful that I went and while I didn't get a whole lot done, I did get inspired and it has spurred my love of scrapbooking again. Saturday night, I managed to almost finished 3 layouts. Just have to figure out the finishing touches.
While I didn't manage to work on any layouts tonight, I did organize my paper and now I should be able to find things more easily.
Now, on to find some more ideas for layouts!
And please, please, please, leave me some comments!! Is there anything you would like to know about scrapbooking a loss? Let me know and I will help you out!

I'm glad you're back!
I have to say that the best thing I have learned from you so far is that it's okay to be scrapbooking so long after the loss. It seems like all the other bereaved moms I've talked to who made a scrapbook did it within a few months of losing their babies.
It's been nearly 18 months for me, and I'm only about halfway done with my sweet Benjamin's book.
I like your layouts on this post--so clean and focused.
