AMY SCRAPS

Here's a LO I did for the Stand Up and Scrap contest. The question was, "If you could have one dream come true, what would it be?" That was a really difficult question because I just don't think about that kind of thing very much. I'm much more of a practical, day to day person and if you can't have something why think about it? :) So, it took me severals days to cipher on it and this is what I came up with...

Journaling:
My Dear Sister,
I was recently asked the question, “If you could have one dream come true, what would it be?” I really don’t fancy myself a dreamer, but, it suddenly came to me. It wasn’t a dream job, a dream house, or a dreamy husband. It was this...if I could have one dream come true it would be to live near you. When I was sixteen years old you moved away and for the past eighteen years we’ve lived miles apart only seeing each other once or twice a year. I’ve already missed your kids’ growing up but how I wish you could be here to see mine as they grow. I wish we could meet at Starbucks or go the movies. I wish we could see each other at church and eat dinner together during the week. I wish we could share clothes, aerobic classes and friends. I wish we could spend the nitty-gritty, run-of-the-mill days together. I wish...I wish... But, even if this dream never becomes reality I will always be thankful for you, my sister, no matter the distance that separates us.
