Sounds like a rather unsettling first day with tremors from an earthquake! I like the series of different "threes" on the page- 3 papers, 3 butterflies and 3 stars.
Sounds like things got off to a shaky start! I most likely would have had a panic attack but you seemed to have taken it in stride. I love the stacked papers! The combination of elements and their placement is fabulous! They keep my eye trained on the photo AND the happy feeling they give belies the story behind the photo. Great job!!
