Journal entrees

I was always a very faithful journal writer back in my teenage years (much of the times that would be nice to forget). But as so many of the most important milestones in my life have past, I failed to document them. I received a journal from my mom when Mayah was born and had every intention of keep track of all her major events, but each time I sat down to write, I felt so overwhelmed with things to say that I always thought, "I will do this later when I have more time." And as many of you mothers know "more time" is hard to find. Now that Ava is here and starting to do all the fun things that babies do for the first time, such as roll over and laugh. My memory is not so good, and I have forgotten when Mayah first rolled over, or what first struck her as funny. These are things that you would think are so memorable that as a mother you could never forget.... I am hoping to use this blog as a sort of journal where I can start now to document my feelings and thoughts on the very exciting everyday things which both of my girls do to make my life so meaningful. And let's be honest, who doesn't like to read someone else's journal (Clint)?!
