Hello everyone :)
I'm Laure aka Mama Bear (Maman Ours, in french), a nickname hubby gaves me when I became a mum for the first time, and he still uses it. Kiddos too. And some friends too. And some other family members too. So, I guess it fits me well :36_1_19:

I'm a mother of 4 : my son is 23, the girls are 19, 15 and 12.
I used to digiscrap a lot few years ago. But full time job, 4 kids and a husband away for months sometimes (he's in the army), and finding time alone with my computer was very rare. When I had some me time, I spent it in my bed with a good book, and just made some pages for our family year book.
But, hey, my son doesn't live with us anymore, my elder daughter is a student and very independent. All off them are quite helpful at home or when i need, and I decided to work less (no overtime hours anymore), so now, I can manage to find some more me time. And I'm back to digiscrap. Yeah!
Glad to be here. l really love the shop, so, I'm sure I'll love the forum :)
