The Cuddle

The other day I had a moment at my house. One of peace. One of sweetness. I got to cuddle Owen. For 30 minutes. This is unheard of. It was wonderful. Jacob started crying and woke him up too soon from his nap. He came downstairs, with Jerry in tow, and curled up on my lap, and cuddled. Heaven on earth. This is the layout I did for it. I wanted to be able to highlight the picture the most. I did, however, want to be able to journal about how wonderful it was, so I mounted the picture onto a bit of cardstock and made a secret journal space.
