My third page for the Sketchbook project: Theme: Danger! Danger! is done! I did this page on "Family". Why? Well, I think many families are lost in 2009. The idea of 'family', two kids, a dog, a happily married couple... white house picket fence and all... Is there a family today without some sort of dysfunction? Are families getting worse or better? I think Families are in Danger of being molded to the world. We text back and forth and have no human contact between each other, we are busy busy busy doing all sorts of things but where is the quality time? It is pretty sad actually.
I love my family. My hubbub and my two sons - the family that God has blessed me with. We try to be strong in the Lord and not be 'worldly' in our wants and needs. It is hard to stay strong though. We all know families who are broken and it is sad for us to see. We pray for God to strengthen our families and to bless each and every one. We pray for those families that are broken that they might find wholeness again. Amen
Happy Creating!

i like the regular writing
Well said Kelly! It's a beautiful page and your lettering ROCKS! I love your explanations behind your pages. Very wise woman indeed.
Two weeks ago, my daughter had to write an essay comparing her family with the typical American family. Great choice for your third Danger page!
great page with a deep, and on-target concern about our families. i too after 29 years of marriage and 3 sons agree we don't take enough time w/o worldly things to concentrate on developing relationships with one another.
noticed your borders are words - journaled pages cut up or some other technique? very subtle but brings the page together.
Thank you everyone for all of your wonderful comments. If you have posted any questions I hope that I have responded to them on your personal blogs or email. If not please let me know - I have a chat bar on the right side of my blog that I check regularily.
Hugs to you all.
Kelly
