I've posted here in the past off and on. Last year was a very busy and rough year for my family and I so I just lurked. The summer began with my husband having a kidney/pancrease transplant that lead to 3-4 months of complications in and out of the hospital. Then on October 26, 2004 we were blessed with our very first child (Dylan Daniel). He was born a very healthy baby boy (a premie by weight 4 pounds 14 ounces but thankfully all of his organs were fully developed so he did not have to stay past 4 days in the hospital since he was very healthy) then on December 6, 2004 our beloved Dylan became our angel, he passed away of SIDS. I found comfort in scrapbooking his pictures. The page that I recently finished I actually began to work on the night prior to his death. I bought scrabble board paper and scrabble board letters at Michaels. With the letters I spelt out his full name and then other words that we thouht of right away when we thought of Dylan (such as premie, blue eyes, baby, adorable etc. then I had a Dylan's hospital picture and picture of him and a snowman that was taken at Wal-mart 3 days prior to his passing that were the perfect size for the board. I am working on the 2nd part of the LO which is I want to take each of the words that are on the scrabble board and write a sentence or of more of way or what made us choose that word and just other memories that we have of Dylan. Wish I could share the actual layout with you.
