I created this page about "My Guys" combining the Flirty (I know right for a boy? but it works!) and Dakota paper packs from Close To My Heart.
It was sad when I was searching for quotes on-line to use for this page just how many negative quotes there are out there about boys. I did find a few good ones and wanted to share them with you . . .
One of the best things in the world to be is a boy; it requires no experience, but needs some practice to be a good one.
Charles Dudley Warner
The boy is father to the man.
Proverb
He has shown you, O man, what is good;
And what does the Lord require of you
But to do justly,
To love mercy,
And to walk humbly with your God?
Micah 6:8
I used our new Close To My Heart pigment inks for the letters in the title - love them! Can't wait to use them on some other projects.
Anyway, sorry to get on my soap box there but I just have some strong opinions about boys and men. They are not all bad - ladies! Look for one who loves Jesus more than he loves you and you will have found a gem like no other! "Many a man proclaims his own steadfast love but a faithful man who can find?" Proverbs 20:6 They are out there - faithful men - they are! I have found one (rather God has brought me one) and by God's strength I'll raise two more :)
Have a blessed day - don't forget to link up your page celebrating boys this month over at Scrapping Everyday Miracles! I can not wait to see what you come up with!
First off I want to say that I love this layout!!
ReplyDeleteand that I am truly surprised that you found mostly negative quotes about boys?!?!
I have only boys so most of my scrapping is about them! And I am immediately drawn to any male papers and embellishments, but however have been lucky enough it seems to never have experienced anything negative! I think I would be very upset about this too, like yourself if I had!
Thank you for sharing your strong views, and I very much agree!!
Great LO!

I don't have any boys, but I always say that raising a boy is as equally hard because it is the parents' responsibility to raise a good man! I'm blessed to have 2 girls and a great man by my side. Thanks for sharing.
