Documenting Our Family: Book of Days


Some days are interesting and a little special... but not as much so as a birthday or moving country and those are the sort of days we had a book of days for...


The days when you got a postcard from a Dad away on deployment.



There was practically nothing spent on these- $2 bucks for the book and some double sided tape. They were just a place to remember and totally designed to be pawed by the kids.


These days most of these things would eventually get scrapbooked (except the postcard- that'd go in out postcard collection mini album) especially things as major as the end of the Air Combat Wing (Boo hoo! Curse you Helen!)- In fact I may have to locate those photos and go back and scrap it properly.

I still think these have their place especially for the likes of Will who can't be trusted to look at a regular 12x12 album on his own, but like all kids enjoys looking at stuff that is about him.
