When we are faced with an event or happening, we are given the choice to ignore or acknowledge it. The natural thing that we do is to instantly discard sad thoughts or events and we cling to happy and memorable events. If you are not the type that clings to everything even if it is good memories, then you have a serious problem. But if you are the type that sees the good things in simple events, for sure you keep something that will remind you of that specific event. We are fond of reliving our happy moments. This is natural for without it, we may not find meaning in everything. Keeping something no matter how stupid it may look is not a bad thing. In fact, it can help us emotionally and mentally. It will directly or indirectly affect us.

Happy moments should be remembered every once in a while. If you cling on to something for a long time is a different and unhealthy thing. Just use your memories and your recollection to inspire and motivate you when you feel down. Many people deal with good memories differently. There are others that keep their diaries and journals which are more personal; these people exert effort writing everything and hiding their diaries and journals. There are others that keep souvenirs in a box or drawer; seeing a thing from that box or drawer will surely bring back good memories. There are also other people who spend time making their scrapbooks. Scrapbooks are simply photo albums that somehow preserve the memories through photos. Indeed a picture paints a thousand words. If you want to consider scrapbooking a special event, let us say the coming of your baby, here are the things that you need:

1. Photos of course. This is easy because we are fond of taking pictures these days. Looking for pictures is as easy as 1 2 3. We have camera phones on handy if we want to take pictures of our little girl or guy.

2. You can also include memorabilia like ultrasounds, letters, baby shower invitation cards and the like. Generally, you are free to put anything as long as it is relevant. You can even put the first sock of your baby if you want.

3. Papers and adhesives. These papers will make each page beautiful; all you need is your creativity. There are many colourful papers out there with beautiful designs that you can choose. The good thing is they are not that expensive.

4. If you want you can put beads, icons, ribbons and other scrapbooking accessories. It will surely add life to your already alive scrapbooks.

5. More importantly you should secure your scrapbook or photo album. You can look for scrap books and photo albums on book stores; don't worry because they are not that expensive. The good thing is that you can make your own scrapbook. You can recycle your papers and make something out of it. Just look for something to bind them and voila you have your instant scrapbook.

Remembering an event will certainly inspire us. Reliving that special moment will surely make us happy especially if it is about our baby.
