Ten Years Of Simon

Happy Monday Ali, I loved it when you did this last year, thanks for doing it again. These are so cute and how sweet to see him grow up to the awesome kid he is today. The first 3 layouts are new to me, so cute. Thanks for taking us down this 10yr journey with you.

Can't wait to see the birthday pictures!! I love that you used circles on almost all of these layouts, circles are my favorite.

Now I'm sure Miss Anna is counting down to her birthday coming up. How fast time is going by.

Have a great day!

Great post Ali! 10 year old boys are the best!

Very cool -- isn't it fun (and sometimes heart-renching) to see them change over time.

Also -- on the scrapping side of things -- fun to see how your style has changed over the years. I look back on layouts when I started -- they are so different from today.

Happy Monday Ali! You are such a good mommma, you can just tell how much your children adore you. I LOVE seeing pictures of Simon, what a great, special, quirky kid. just adore him.

Have a super week, I hope you are enjoying your new office and I can't wait to see the progress

OH he is SO very cute!!! And a lucky boy to have all this "fun" beautiful layouts to see and so appreciate exspecially when he gets older. You ALWAYS continue to inspire!!! Thank you...and so looking forward to the birthday party:)

I realized in a startling way ... I have watched him grow up! Awesome.

Love seeing the evolving of him...
As well as you.
Ten is such a big year. Its a birthday that hit me the hardest when my oldest turned ten.
Happy birthday to you both.

wow i remember some of these layouts... thanks for sharing again! i made my grandson a birthday card for his 13th birthday with a picture collage of all his previous birthdays he really liked it!
so much fun looking back at these pictures!

Love it Ali!
That second layout, Anna's face is in his face...they look so much alike!
:)

I wish Simon the happiest of birthdays! He has always struck me as having a young face, but "old" eyes, like there's an old soul in there.

OH I super LOVE :) Wishing Simon the Happiest of Birthdays again :)

Happy Birthday Simon! After looking at all the layouts of Simon, it somehow feels like he is family because as an avid reader of your blog I feel like I know him and your entire family. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Your precious Simon sure is someone to celebrate! Your wonderful layouts are a reflection of your love and the special relationship you both share. I wish for Simon that each decade of his life is wonderful, filled with health, happiness and true love. Thanks for sharing!

Wow, love it! It's so fun to look back through the years. Happy Birthday to Simon!! Have a wonderful day (and week).

Truly a lovely post Ali! Simon is such a cutie. I hope his 10th year is absolutely great! I must say he has the most engaging eyes ...

Love this more than you know... I remember all of these photos. My son turns 10 in May... so I've watched your son grow as my son has grown. It's gone by so quickly. My son was diagnosed with sensory integration dis-function when he was 2.5 - I always appreciated your realness in all your posts with Simon. You have been such an encouragement to me over the years. Simon is such a beautiful, happy and incredible kid. Thank you for sharing him with us all of these years.

I feel like I'm your friend... (o: ~ kim

how amazing, that you have all of this documented. it;s such a special treasure.

happy birthday to simon!

Very cool!

Between the CK and this blog I have seen him grow through your layouts. He is so adorable and seems like such a sweet boy!
Happy Birthday Simon!
