Parenthood....

Noel Mignon is hosting a new challenge this week..........to use a favorite TV show title as part of your LO. My favorite show right now has to be, Parenthood. It is one of those shows that makes you laugh one minute and cry the next. It shows how families can drive you crazy and yet how much we need one another. So here is my spin on the show.......
I used Noel's Office Party kit (sold out) as well as my Cricut machine and Opposite Attract cartridge for the title and "stick pins."
The ticket was Glimmer Misted, painted in white, and inked on the edges to give it a shabby feel.
My journaling reads:
Parenthood is tough. Tiring. Difficult. Rewarding. Heart wrenching. Wonderful. Tiring. Aggravating. All of these things wrapped into one. Our little family was created 15 years ago. We could never, ever, have imagined that parenting could be so tough. We live together day after day, and there are times we can barely stand the sight of one another, and days where we laugh until our sides ache, and days where tears are shed and hearts are broken. We can drive each other crazy, or are driven into each other's arms for comfort. At the end of the day, this is where our hearts are. Just us. Our Little Family. And as a parent......I wouldn't have it any other way.
Be sure to check out the other DT gals' inspiration this week!!! Hope you can play along in this week's challenge!

I had to open this to full size to really drink in all its beauty. I love the paper ruffle and the glimmer mist and the wonderful photos of your family and then, the topper, your eloquent journalling. All I have to add is Amen.
