STEALING FROM MOM

submitted by: Sarah Klingler

I love to scrapbook, and I have done several books for myself…  one for Prom, one with high-school pics, and one that I’m working on now for college. 

My mother loves the books that I do and asked me if I could work on one for her with all of our family pictures throughout the years.  I told her that there was no way… I was too busy with schoolwork, and besides… I had my own scrapbooks to work on.  

Since September, every time that I have been home, I have taken pictures from her photo albums
when she wasn’t around, and have been compiling a scrapbook for her at school.  I started with the day that I was born, and so far, I have one entire book done of the first 3 years of my life and the first year of my brother’s life. 

I have started a second book, but at the rate that I’m
going, I’ll have to fill 10 books to make it to the present!  I’m really looking forward to giving her what I have done so far on mother’s day, and I’m hoping that she’s surprised!
