One Line a Day...

I started writing one line a day in this nifty little book January 1st. It has a spot to write a few words every day for 5 years. I'm learning about editing (there's not a lot of space!) and I'm trying to focus on recording special moments each day rather than just writing down what I did and I have to say that I'm enjoying the mental exercise of it.

A few tidbits that I recorded: May 4, {G} came home excited to learn how to say "Holy unicorn!" in Japanese; January 24, {K}, who was violently ill, said to me, "Mom, help me get through this."; June 16, {I} asked if it was okay to meet all his friends at the movie theater without a parent (teen-age moment).

I think I'll keep going :)

Who knew that the difference between the Wallace Crest and the Wallace Coat of Arms could cause so much drama?!? Getting {I}'s projects finished this morning was crazy town around here. I'm sure hoping that his presentations went well today...

I've forgotten so many funny, sad and wonderful things that have happened over the years because I haven't written them down. 2012 is the year that I will write down something EVERY DAY. No matter how trivial or mundane. Maybe I'll change my brain sieve into a brain trap. Or maybe I'll laugh in five years at the silly things I wrote down. One line a day is do-able. Right?
