CPS 74 & rambling

I know you must think I do nothing else but scrap?
Sometimes I think about that too.
And it makes me realize how far I've come with my scrapping.
I remember when I first started scrapping, I always did two-page layouts.
My sister, who got me started in scrapping, didn't do two-page layouts, BUT
she always made sure both pages facing each other "matched."
The AR in me thought this totally made sense.
Because I felt my opposing pages needed to "match,"
I always did two-page layouts, even if I had to use extra photos to make it work.
Because of this, it could take me 2-4 days to complete.
Jump forward 8-years when I can get a couple of cards & a layout done in one day,
AND do all my other household chores,
AND spend quality time with my family.
Now................................THAT my friends is what I call scrapping:)
So, I managed to get the CPS 74 sketch done too:)
Using some more of my SEI papers & some Melissa Frances trim.

In other news besides scrapping, I'm torn over a decision to put my 3-year old in a PreK 3 program.
See, she suffers from 2nd child syndrome & I admit I haven't spent the "quality" time with her I did my first-born.
For this, I feel guilty & think a PreK program will get her up-to-speed.
But things like PreK 3 cost money.
Something I'm watching real close lately...................I just wish it were closer in my pocketbook:)
So, do I enroll my baby & get a part-time job?
Or do I enjoy another "baby" year with her & enroll her in a private school in the fall of 2009?
These are decisions my mother never told me about & at this point, I refuse to make one.
