"Good Enough" by Amanda

I've had this journaling in my head for awhile but had no idea the layout was going to be inspired by Legos. :) When my boys needed one more mini-figure to complete the set, I found myself making this little guy...and, somehow, it all just came together:

Here, too, is another layout that I finished for a previous challenge but that fits the bill here:

So. What did your loved one say? ;) Please post your own layout about a phrase or story that your loved one shared often. Link it up in the comments of the original challenge post before the next challenge goes up July 15 if you can. Even if you don't manage to finish a layout, we'd still love to hear those phrases and stories!

These are wonderful. I am glad to have found this site after losing several extended family members in the past year.

On a more scrappy note - what font did you use for the title on the "it all goes to the same place" layout? Or is it hand drawn? I like it - if it is a font, please share the name? :) Thanks for sharing the stories.

Oh, actually, I think I found it. Pointy on dafont.com, yes? Anyway, thanks again for sharing these layouts.
