I have to admit I am not the greatest at keeping my journal up to date, but you know what is fun, reading back on it! I just spend the last hour reading back on my dating days, it was fun, and neat to see how much thought, and prayer went into finding Wyatt. It was also a laugh to read back on funny moments with roommates (hello Trois Rivieres!).
I found that I tend to express my feelings about people a lot better in writing, most of my entries finish by talking about how cool and awesome my hubby is! ...also I have never before referred to Wyatt As my HUBBY! So yes Wyatt, I love you, you are cool.
But what I loved the most about reading my journal, is seeing the role that Heavenly Father has played in my life. It is great to see how blessed I am, and how lucky I am to have the values, and believes that I do have. It was great to look back on moments like my mission, finding Wyatt, and my wedding day, so if any of you guys are like me, remember that although it is hard to write the journal, it is a really uplifting, and fun experience to read back on it.

so, I totally read this post awhile ago, and then never commented! shame on me :) but I'm with you on the journalling - I was an avid-journal-keeper as a teenager, and it is so fun to go back and read all of my teenage drama... well, "fun" might really be "funny"... :) I'm not so good at journalling now, but I blog and I make albums for our family... so hopefully those are as fun to look back on in future years :)
I hope you've had a fantastic summer!
So fun and funny to go back and read what I've written in the past. There have been a lot of, "Oh no, I didn't really do that, did I?" ANd a LOT of covering my face in embarrassment! Also, a lot of memories forgotten! Hey, dating coordinator! Good times.
