I'm sorry for your loss. I can imagine that this was a difficult lo. to do. This is a wonderful tribute and I admire your strength in scrapping such a strong and very difficult subject.
I am so sorry for your loss! Thank you for sharing this beautiful tribute to your son. Thank you for helping get the word out about the tragic loss this 'game' can cause!
Janie,
My face is wet with tears! A beautiful LO for a beautiful young man. I cannot imagine how great your loss. I am in awe of your tribute to Alex. May God Bless you and your family.
Hugs,
Susan
Janie this is a really beautiful layout! You have paid a lovely tribute. The poem and journaling are so sweet. I also love the colors you chose and how you did the title!
This is absolutely breath taking. Such a great, perfect, exceptional LO. I love how you did the primas, the title, colors...just everything is gorgeous. Lots of Love and Memories for you here! Something to treasure always! Great job!
What a beautiful layout to honor your boy. I am sorry for your loss. I too have been in your shoes. My son Michael died almost 11 years ago. He was only 16. I can truly say it does get easier, but you never forget and you will always hold him close to you no matter how many years pass. This lo pays such a wonderful tribute to the little boy that brought you so much joy. May it bring a tender ray of happiness whenever you think of him.
Janie... wow !! Everything is just perfect on this lo -- the colors, the flowers, everything perfectly compliments your love for your Alex. This is my favorite lo of yours !!

This was a very difficult layout for me to do but I needed to pay tribute to my son who passed away almost 5 months ago... the hidden Journalling behind the picture reads
My Precious Angel in heaven Alexander, my world is so empty without you in it you were my very special little man. I wish I could turn back the clock and I would still have you here. You were the sunshine to my rain. The laughter to my crying. The giggle to my sadness. My sweet Alley Cat I adore you still. It's been 5 months since you left this world but it still feels so fresh. I miss your laugh, your infectious silly smile. I miss your sweet voice, I miss your gorgeous steel grey blue eyes. I Miss You. So my son here is my loving tribute to you. I love You and I miss you more everyday. Loving you forever Mom Alexander James Pait April 7 , 1992 - October 29, 2005.
The poem to the right of the photo reads.
Letter to Mom by Joy Curnutt
Mom, please don't feel guilty It was just my time to go. I see you are still feeling sad, And the tears just seem to flow.
We all come to earth for our lifetime, And for some it's not many years I don't want you to keep crying You are shedding so many tears.
I haven't really left you Even though it may seem so. I have just gone to my heavenly home, And I'm closer to you than you know.
Just believe that when you say my name I'm standing next to you, I know you long to see me, But there's nothing I can do.
But I'll still send you messages And hope you understand, That when your time comes to “cross over,” I'll be there to take your hand.
