A family memory journal is a fun, easy way to preserve familymemories. A couple of years ago I was sorting through a pile ofunused journals (many given to me as presents!) and was trying tocome up with a way to put them to good use.One day after a family gathering, I sat down and wrote a shortdescription of the gathering in one of the unused journals. Iwrote where the gathering took place, the occasion we werecelebrating, the names of the people who had attended, andanything about the day that had stood out in my memory. I didthis for the next couple of family get togethers and then juststuck the journal in a drawer somewhere. It didn't seem like that big of deal at the time, but probably ayear or more later I pulled out the journal again and looked atthe entries I had made. It was really fun reading them again. Ihad already forgotten some of the things that had happened, orthoughts that I had at the time that fortunately I had thought towrite down.I've been really forgetful about writing in my family memoryjournal, but in the past couple of years have probably chronicledtwo or three family events a year. When you think about it, 25years from now, the journal will be full of family memories.Family journals are a great thing to pass down to your childrenand grandchildren. At the time they don't really care aboutwhat's going on, but some day they will appreciate being remindedof some of their childhood memories.In the past year or so I've really gotten into scrapbooking. Iwas just thinking that my memory journal will be a great resourcefor my scrapbooking projects. Sometimes it takes months to getyour photos ready and pages laid out. By that time you willforget any memories you had to go along with them. If you haveyour family memory journal, you can use it to add journaling toyour scrapbook pages, with your memory as clear as if you hadtaken the pictures yesterday.Don't let time pass you by and let those special family momentsget away from you. Sometimes an event as routine as "anotherfamily birthday party" might make a great memory later in life. Especially when older relatives start passing away, it's specialremembering the times they were involved in family get togethers. Someday when you're that older person, your youngest familymembers will enjoy reading about their great- and great-greatgrandparents.
