This is inspired by a Marcy Penner page Homemade Ramp ... for the Journaling Challenge : this matters because ... (I cried 3x writing this, the last sentence. )
journaling reads:

this matters because in less than two years one of you will be gone ... and then just one year latter i will lose both of you to your future endeavors. this matters because it is rare to see you both in the same room at the same time for an extended period of time. this matters because seeing you gathered around the kitchen island eating and doing homework is how we started our life in this house 11 years ago. you two ate breakfast every single morning at the stools together. you came home from school and did your homework every day sitting at this very island. it was such a routine part of our lives and now these stools hardly ever get used. this matters because while i have you both here i want to hold to these moments of family gathered around the kitchen ... laughing, eating and having fun sharing the stories of our day. this matters because some day very soon ... i will be standing in this very spot ... and your voices will no longer be heard. and i will know with every cell in my body that something is missing.

this matters.

Awww, I came here from the original. I like both renditions! So pretty, you always make the most interesting layouts and have this wonderful style! Hugging again because I can!!
 
oh my Jenn.. what a beautiful page you made 2 years ago... sweet memories. I know what you mean (although I do not have any children) but I understand re the kitchen and the soundss and all.. Do not worry it will only be a few years and before you know it, it will be filled with a new generation as your children begin families of their own! I absolutely love the composition here and love your journaling. Perfectly scrapped !!!
 
Love the journaling on this original page, and love the candid photo of an ordinary moment. They grow up so quickly! Wonderful design and page!
