One Line a Day
A few years.. actually almost a decade ago I started a 'one line a day' journal. I blogged about it here. I was never much of a journaling kind growing up. But after D was born I wanted to remember everything.. even the small things. Now almost a decade ago I wish I had started it earlier.. remember more about my pregnancy.. remember the early kid free years of marriage. So much so.. that at the start of the year I started journals for the boys.
Currently I fill the journal for them.. else they'd never do it..

I love that - so what do you journal - what they do or have done or what they say - what kind of things? They will love that. sandie

I have never had the discipline to do anything like that! Good for you!
ReplyDeleteI've always wanted to get one of these journals.

This is such a great idea!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're doing this! I journaled for years (not always daily, but often), but once I started blogging (about 15 years ago), I slacked off.
ReplyDeletethis is awesome. I journal and did it from 14 yo until my early twenties then QUIT until my mid forties. Yup, no documentation of my children nor what those little bits of interesting things they said or did....I am appalled at myself.
ReplyDeleteThese are so great - it's a nice reminder of what you've had happen and all the little moments! xo, Biana-BlovedBoston
ReplyDeleteI'm loving this idea, as I've always regretted not keeping a journal beyond my teenage years. My blog kind of replaces that, but I too wish I'd started earlier. A wonderful idea to start keeping them for your boys! xxx
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful idea. I have never journalled, but I am realising just how many things I have forgotten...
ReplyDeleteOo I'm liking these journals!! Thanks for sharing them!

A friend of mine was recently telling me that journaling has helped her to manage her stress.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea. You never know what about the day can make such a difference in the future.

I've seen these kinds of blog posts, but I didn't know there was an actual journal for it you could buy. That is so neat and now you have me wondering if this is something I need to start. :)

This is such a great idea and so much less overwhelming than journaling!
ReplyDeleteLove the idea, Hena.
ReplyDeleteI started keeping a diary at the age of 12 until I was 30!
Als Kind habe ich auch immer ein Tagebuch geführt. Jetzt leider schon lange nicht mehr.

Wonderful idea, I should do that too, when my son is 1 year old☺
ReplyDeleteJournalling is the best, isn't it?:) I love that you started one for the boys. I just finished the 3-year KonMari gratitude journal and it was definitely fun looking back:)
ReplyDeleteGood idea
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet idea- and is going to make such a tome of memories someday!

I used to do this when I was in college! It's so great because you easily forget about most of the things you and people you see. I just started using a planner again and I caught myself trying to use as it a journal as well. DO you think I should do this for my toddler, or is she too young? Have a great week!

I used to keep diaries when I was younger. Journaling can teach us a lot about ourselves.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a wonderful idea. I hope that they'll keep up with the journals once it's time to write their own line a day.
ReplyDeletethis is such a great journaling idea, the books are beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great idea, Hena! What a lovely keepsake to have for the future! Hope you have a wonderful weekend! XXX
ReplyDeleteI love journaling too and have started when I was pregnant with my kids - I record little things in an electronic journal. We love reading through it!
ReplyDeleteYou're such a great mom.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds really interesting idea.

“One Line A Day” journal by jotting down all important memories that you want to remember in future is a great way dear Hena. From this article it is very clear how much you enjoy writing a line one day. Your pre-pregnancy days, during pregnancy times and once the boys were born is a long time to account and done very well.
