Family Memory Journal

Written by Rachel Paxton


Continued from page 1

Family journals are a great thing to pass down to your children and grandchildren. Atrepparttar time they don't really care about what's going on, but some day they will appreciate being reminded of some of their childhood memories.

Inrepparttar 111431 past year or so I've really gotten into scrapbooking. I was just thinking that my memory journal will be a great resource for my scrapbooking projects. Sometimes it takes months to get your photos ready and pages laid out. By that time you will forget any memories you had to go along with them. If you have your family memory journal, you can use it to add journaling to your scrapbook pages, with your memory as clear as if you had takenrepparttar 111432 pictures yesterday.

Don't let time pass you by and let those special family moments get away from you. Sometimes an event as routine as "another family birthday party" might make a great memory later in life. Especially when older relatives start passing away, it's special rememberingrepparttar 111433 times they were involved in family get togethers. Someday when you're that older person, your youngest family members will enjoy reading about their great- and great-great grandparents.
