Life Lessons to my son

There are things that I've been telling Jake since he was a baby. They are 'life lessons' - things to remember, things to live by, things to carry with him forever. I took this photo a bit ago and have been waiting to use it. I saw a page done by Cindylo (@The Digi Chick with a kit by Etc. by Danyale) and fell in love with it. It's the closest I've come to scraplifting almost exactly.. save the kids and some of the words.

Your heart will always make itself known through your words. I love you, Mommy

If you are having a hard time reading the journaling here it is ::

"These are the things we always talk about,

Remember them. Hold them close and carry 

them with you forever. Remember to always be 

kind. Treat people the way you would like to be 

treated. Listen with an open heart and mind. 

Breathe. Believe in yourself. Love yourself. What 

you put out to the world will come back to you. 

It’s the energy and karma that goes around. You 

will always need your Mother. Just be yourself. 

You can be anything you want to be. Be patient. 

Be careful. Trust your instincts and always have an 

opinion. Read a lot. Be passionate. You always 

have the power to be happy. Make friends and

keep them close. Pray. Eat healthy food. Exercise 

and play. Never lose your sense of wonder. Dance 

when you feel sad and smile at yourself in the 

mirror. Never be afraid to tell your Mother or 

Father anything. Forever, for always, and no 

matter what - you are so loved."

Peace & Scrappiness :)
