The whole guts of the week-long on-line class with Jen was that it's the little - day to day things that you don't want to forget. You want your kids to be able to thumb through these journals over and over without stressing about touching them or wrecking them, and you want to be able to get it done in a reasonable amount of time (unlike some of my layouts which can take hours!). They're not exactly works of art - but another avenue to try little techniques and use up left-over stash. They capture life, as it is, everyday. It's a diary - but without having to write pages and pages - really it's a snap-shot of the things you just don't want toforget. Jen has been doing these for ages and has plenty already. I'd really love to keep this going. It's all about routines. Jen collects her info during the week, jotting ideas andnotes down on post-its and then dedicates friday night to printing off photos and doing 7 pages in the journal. Once I'm in that groove, I think I will keep it up - but I'm playing catch-up from last week atm. What do you think? Love Me x
