Last night I read the rest of my 2002 Olympic volunteer scrapbook entries mixed in with pictures from those games. The last entry that I wrote stated, "It (being a volunteer) was an incredible experience for me and I'm grateful for two daughters that are very excited about scrapbooking and have encouraged me to keep 'everything I find' so that they can help me do a scrapbook documenting my experience."
Eight years later, I am again grateful for the encouragement from Natalie and Nicole to put my memories into scrapbook form. I also want to thank my mom for the idea of sending out an email to family and friends documenting each day's activities as a volunteer. Those emails are now my Olympic Scrapbook dialog.

isn't that what daughters are for - to encourage all worthy pursuits? glad to have done it, glad you had that incredible experience and glad you have such a great scrapbook of your time at the games.
Those olympics were a great treat for you. Glad you were able to do it and that you now can review the memories with your scrapbook.
sure thing, shanks. i'm glad you put so much effort into your scrapbooks from such a unique experience.
