    Hello everyone!!
    I am usually one to stay away from lots of journaling on my layouts, but I really needed some scrap therapy right now. We have been going through a really tough time with my daughter, something I hope that none of you have to go through. We are just beginning our journey with her, and hopefully will be able to get through this journey quickly and safely with her. But in the mean time, this place and everyone here is definitely helping keep me sane.

    Your challenge this month is to make a layout about a tough or challenging time that you have gone through or are going through currently. And because this is a journaling challenge, you must have at least 50 words on your layout.

    Here is my layout

    As always, please remember the monthly challenge rules: Your page must contain at least 75% Lilypad product. Your page should be posted to the Lilypad Gallery and then linked to the April Challenge Thread thread so it can be tracked, and to this thread.

    The Lilypad uses a percent system for our challenges; the number of challenges you participate in determines the store discount you will receive at the end of the month:

    2 challenges = 10% off
    4 challenges = 20% off
    6 challenges = 30% off

    If you complete 7 challenges, you will receive a coupon for 30% off, plus you will be entered to win a $50 gift certificate from the Lilypad! The first seven challenges will be posted on the first of the month; the eighth challenge is the BYOC challenge, which is posted on BYOC release day. Each page counts for one challenge (you cannot use one layout for multiple challenges).

    I hope that this challenge helps you get through your challenging times. Thanks for helping me get through mine.

    This sounds right up my alley. Can it be photoless?

    Natty, your image is not showing up. When I click the little IMG icon, I get a Lilypad Error window.

    Yes, it can be photoless...this is a journaling challenge, so the only requirement is that you must have at least 50 words.

    Here's my take:

    Definitely not as deep as some of the other pages for this challenge, but we are at our wits end with our dd's potty struggles.
