Here’s an idea that was given to me when my oldest child was a baby, and I’m so glad it was! So glad in fact that I’d like to pass it on!

The idea is to have a “family funny book” in which you record funny things your children say or do.  I just use a simple notebook and try to have it handy so I can jot things down as they happen.

You just think you’ll never forget, but I am so glad I started this because already I look back and marvel at how much I’ve forgotten!  The children are old enough now to enjoy looking back and having mama read them a thing or two that they said when they were little and laughing at themselves and each other.
