~ journalling ~



January slipped past in a haze of sunblock, lazy days, icy poles and sunshine.  I blogged about our summer here and I've written about it in both my journals.  Yes, both.

It happened like this...

I treated myself to the completely adorably cute Frankie diary in the madness that was Christmas shopping.  I absolutely love to look at it and I'm being really good at writing every day.  I'm using coloured pens and stickers and its completely gorgeous... but... the daily spaces are just TOO small.  I'm used to the the full sized pages of the Kikki-K 365 books that I've used for the last 3 (!!) years now and I'm struggling to make my words fit.  

So I'm using another blank journal as well and writing when I need to just let the words spill out.  
To record.  To remember.

I think I need a better system.  But I'm not willing to give up on Frankie just yet.


  

This week will need a lot of words.  School starts for the year and I'm feeling more fragile than usual.  My baby starts kinder this week and whilst he is getting excited and can't take his new school shoes off I'm not ready.  I've shed tears at each beginning but this is the last beginning.  

Lasts and firsts - such a tug on our hearts.

Do you/ how do you record your days?
