Anyone else have this problem? I do scrap booking for my boys. I haven't touched the stuff in nearly two years. Today I finally got out the stuff. I cried the whole time. The memories of our life together were almost to much. I do intend to keep with it though. Anyone else have trouble going through old photos? I feel so stupid.

hugssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
you are not stupid at all!! you are sad and mourning a life that 'could have been'. totally understandable and normal. after my first husband (my son's father) and i got divorced - i was the same, i really missed him and missed our 'life' together, even tho i knew that there were problems that were just too deep.
put the albums away for now. deal with them later on when you are able to.
Follow me to my partner in the siggy exchange....
Actually I don't really have trouble going through the pictures. I FINALLY get that I was holding onto and missing my romanticized version of us and not the reality. Dr Phil actually talked with someone about that on Friday. The reality is that he wasn't a good husband. He did not make me feel special or loved. So, as long as I am looking at him through the eyes of reality, I don't miss him.
I DO have to get busy with the scrapbooking though. One would never know that I have a second child!!
