a year.

do you journal? i mean for reals. not virtually, but really journal with a pen and paper?

i do. i always have. (thank you personal progress) i like to write. i love digging up old journals and read through them. it's fun for me. i have found that even my journals when i was little i really do cherish. especially the entries during the time my parents were getting divorced. it's interesting for me to read what my 11 yr brain was thinking.

anyways, since we recently moved i rounded up all my journals and put them in a box, togther. all snuggled nicley. and i just finished another one. i really liked this journal..it was pretty (i buy most of my journals at ross haha) it had a scripture on the front of it John 1:16. i didn't buy it because of the scripture at the time..i mostly liked the color, and that it was on rings. But...as i looked back over my entries (amolst exactly a year period) the scripture had an underlining impact in every entry. "from the fullness of His grace we have all recieved one blessing after another" (its not the exact scripture i just realized)

i am excited to start hunting down my next journal...this may sound crazy...but i swear it's like finding the perfect pair of jeans...they just speak to you, and oyu have to have them...same with my journal. haha i'm a lunatic. for more ways than one :)

Good for you! I wish I was better at keeping a real journal. Its fun to go back and read and remember the details. For now my blog is my journal!

This journal entry shows we have a lot in common! I don't think I passed on the love of journal writing (real pen and paper journals purchased at Ross) to any of my daughters.
