" Somebody along the way in here suggested instead of looking at old pictures. Takes lots of new ones! Good excuse to get outside and have some fun with the camera and the kids. "

" Do it if it is something you love, just do it with recent photos. I use to but really cannot bring myself to look at 30 plus years of happy photos. I barely recognize that it is us. All of it is shoved in a closet and that is where it will have to stay. "

" Well I'm not a mum but I scrapbook and love it. Sometimes it's hard to get motivated when I'm feeling sad but it makes me happy to see what i've done. They always look so nice and I love photos. So far I've only been able to use photos that have been taken after this all happened because they don't remind me of him "
