One of the things I love to do for my kids is to write down how I feel about them . Just recently one my kids went on camp an d I wrote down how I felt about it and how proud i was of her. when she came back we had a special tea party in her honour and I read out what I had written. she was so excited...so I told her I would keep writing and then give her the book when she is grown up...
i would love to hear good ideas on making and keeping special memories

What a great idea Christie!
Both my wife and I try and do special things with our kids on a regular basis....to create family memories. It's just so important. It's also really important to do that special thing with them on an individual basis.

My daughter and I are going to be making a video diary of
our overseas trip next year from the moment we leave the house.
We will record together everything we see and do, because for
us this is a landmark in our lives and we are just going to
relax and have the best time together. Time is so precious
with your kids because it goes so fast, every moment counts.
