message journal


A few years back, we used to live in a tiny tree-house-like apartment that somehow didn't seem so small at the time. I kept a thick journal by the phone for message writing (sticky notes and tiny paper scraps always seemed to disappear). Once in a while there would be a sweet love note amongst the daily scribbles of appointment reminders, and it would leave a plastered smile on my face for a week. I think it's time for a new message journal, purely for the element of surprise.

  5. My Mom and Step-Dad actually do answer the phone "I love you" instead of "hello" when they know it's the other person. (thank goodness for caller id!) It's very sweet.

  6. This sounds like a wonderful tradition to have! I've been on the hunt for the perfect chalkboard within my price range... For just this very reason!
