Elaine's Scrapbook Haven: My Best Teacher
http://myscrapbookhaven.blogspot.com/2010/10/my-best-teacher.html
Sunday, October 31, 2010. When I first expressed my intention to adopt Darrel, the nurses repeatedly warned me, "He is a premature baby with complication at birth resulting in loss of oxygen supply to the brain. You are facing risks of severe brain damage, mental retardation, delay in speaking, walking or other developmental delays. None of those can be predicted at this stage. Are you sure you don't want another baby? OK, will he ever be able to walk? Let me tell you, there is nothing as painful as hear...

Take the Blog Love Pledge. Friday, May 27, 2011. I know I have been away from the blog world for close to three months now. I think I needed a break from blogging, keeping up on my blog roll and trolling the goings on in the craft world. I didn't know it at the time, but the time away felt good and now I'm ready to blog it up again! Lots has transpired since my last blog post. Most notably, my sister had her twin boys! They are now 2 months old and the most precious things ever! Darren and cousin Devin.

Take the Blog Love Pledge. Saturday, February 5, 2011. I know I've been a bad blogger of late. I missed my last 2 Travel Tuesdays but between work and my dear MIL who has temporarily moved in with us due to health issues I honestly haven't had time to blog or craft. Things are gonna change tomorrow because Darren's last basketball game of the season was this morning {let's hear it for no more twice/week practices and games every weekend! Although I will miss watching him play! That begins on March 31st a...

Take the Blog Love Pledge. Monday, October 18, 2010. 12 years ago today. The hubby and I got hitched. Well, I wouldn't call it hitched since we had 120 of our closest family and friends and partied like it was 1999. Well, technically, it was 1998. Here's to another 12 years together. Thursday, October 14, 2010. Fall break is over already? So out of the 14 days of fall break I was home for exactly 5 of those days. I'll chalk up this school break as the busiest ever! Check out these candied apples:. So we ...

Elaine's Scrapbook Haven: September 2009
http://myscrapbookhaven.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 29, 2009. Yup, I've finally decided to go digital. With a baby to take care of, the phrase spare time has become unknown to me. So I decided to give digital scrapbooking a shot and realized that this is a perfect solution for me! Anyway, this is one of the layout I created during my lunch time. Neat, right? Not that I intend to give up traditional scrapbooking entirely. I still love seeing a real- I can feel and touch- page, with dimension and textures. I'll still be doing that...Eager...

http://myscrapbookhaven.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 28, 2009. Talk about being productive! Boy how I love Digi. Never before I made so many layouts in just one week. Bless you. all the people who create Digikits! There should be a special place for you in scrapbooking heaven. Do I love to exaggerate or what? Anyway, here are some layouts I made:. I really want to capture Darrel's special relationship with his Grandpa. They are so close to each other. He even kinda forgets about me whenever Grandpa is around. Sigh. :D. Anyway, something ...

Elaine's Scrapbook Haven: Intertwined
http://myscrapbookhaven.blogspot.com/2011/02/intertwined.html
Wednesday, February 9, 2011. Different colours and textures of threads woven together - that's how I'd describe my family. Born from an Ambonese father and a Chinese mother, married to a Moslem Javanese man - diversity has simply become a daily reality to me. In my family you'd find different shades of skin colours - white, black and everything in between. Different ethnicity and race - Ambonese, Chinese, Javanese, Menadonese, Balinese, you name it. A message we ought to pass on to our next generation.

http://myscrapbookhaven.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 13, 2010. In every parent's wish for their child, there's an unspoken prayer - 'don't make the same mistakes that I did, be much much more then I ever was'. Don't be afraid to make mistakes, baby. Was my biggest mistake and oh, how much I have missed because of that. But, sweetie, we live and learn,. Friday, March 12, 2010. My own little miracles. I find it a miracle that:. 8230;two people from different religions, race and family backgrounds. Could fall in love as deeply as we do. This i...
