I am inspired lately by my son. He is just turning 23 (on Sunday) and yet his maturity just blows me away. I always want to ask him, "where did you learn to do that?".

Knowledge and Life, those are my inspirations. I have been an emotional rollercoaster lately. My father used to tell me "knowledge is power",it sure helped me last Sunday when my 7 yr old dog had labored breathing. 2 ERs, 2 surgeries & 5 days later, I was able to bring her home. The love and support of all we encountered during this journey - truly inspires me!

What is inspiring me today are some pretty hefty life changes that we, as a family, are planning to make. After lots of soul searching, we have decided to relocate - 1200 miles away, and after months of angst I finally feel some semblance of peace and an excitement of what the future brings.

Lately I've been inspired by videos showing me different ways to use the tools I already have. Instead of spending more money, I'm not getting more out of the things I already have! What a great feeling.

I have been inspired to capture memories by the fact that my mother has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's and will not be able to share her memories much longer. I want my children to be able to "know" their grandparents and family.

Right now I am being inspired by the book "A Year of Mornings - 3191 Miles Apart" by Maria Alexandra Vettese and Stephanie Congdon Barnes. I never realized how photographs of everyday things could be so beautiful! I'm inspired to take more pictures of my everyday rituals and things in and around my home.

Hmmm...I have had scrapper's block lately, but one thing that inspired me was Sara Winnick's challenge on Write. Click. Scrapbook. Then I got my newest issue of CK and have been pouring over that--so that has helped a lot!

I've been very inspired by blogs about sewing lately - among others this one: http://thelongthread.com/
I'm a beginner, but I love using fabric in my scrapbooking and I've learned a few new sewing techniques recently that I plan to incorporate on my layouts. :)
Thank you for the giveaway! :)

Trying to think what is inspiring me lately. I would have to say that the thought of a new year starting on Wednesday. (yes, my years run by the school year). Always love the idea of a clean slate. Very awesome year.

Right now I am especially inspired by my family and our time together. In the summer, we are always together- at the park, at the pool or camping. Lots of photos and memories
