StoryWorth Is NOT The Way To GO!
One really good perk to having a blog is getting to WHINE when you get ripped off. I am steamed!! On Instagram I found this deal from a place called StoryWorth. Answer questions and send pictures.

When the kids lived at home at dinner I would ask “what do you want to remember today?” So, you’re wondering what’s in these books….. well…. EVERYTHING!! Some pages might be just day to day things, a test, a joke, a crush….. some are hysterical. One of my very favorite example (ohhhh I’m so sorry Zachary!) Zac said “I have something but, you won’t write this one”Mom “Zac yes, I promise! Every word”Zac “No you won’t”Mom “Look, I’m writing” (I start writing the conversation: Zac is now standing over my shoulder and watching as I am writing … Zac says I won’t write his story, but I am writing every word he says…. “Okay”) AND…
