When our children were growing up I quickly realized that I couldn’t (and didn’t!) keep up with 3 baby books. Back in 1984 I picked up our very first “family book” just a blank journal nothing fancy paper cover, I paid maybe $2.00 just in case it didn’t ‘take’.

These are our family history. When we ate dinner I would ask what do you want to remember today? When people ask I tell them EVERYTHING thing is in these books. My very favorite example (ohhhh I’m so sorry Zachary!)…

So I cut out small squares, I cut out the heart, an i and the U…. Ahhhh the i is too big the heart is too wide… maybe if I ohhhhh what’s that?? Is that a package of Twizzlers??  WOW how old are THOSE!?  I better ‘freshness test’ taste those. How…
