Keep record of the amazing things of motherhood.

Be a mom is something really exciting. The first smile, those little hands. A million of things comes to the mind all the time. We think about their future. What career are they going to choose? What style are they going to like? Is he or she going to be quite or going like to talk? Well, a thousand questions. You would like he or she could talk but not yet. Or at least could understand you so you can tell all your feelings at this moment. How much you waited to see him or her and how that little person changed your life. That is why making a journal dedicated to your baby is such a great idea. You probably are going to have a chance in your life to say everything you always wanted to say. But, you also probably are going to forget a lot of thing you wanted to remember. Putting those awesome memories in a journal will make them last forever.

What Are You Going To Write About?

Feelings

Let the love you feel for that little person inspire you to write. Write about the first time you two saw for first time. Express your fears, your happiness. Be open. Just imagine you are writing a letter to an old friend telling how is to be a parent. You can write about those things has change and how bless you are to have such a beautiful baby in your life. You can also write about your plans to the future. What do want to do with him or her. Even if you are just dreaming about it you should put it in your journal. Write about how the rest of the family feels about the new arrive. Be the more specific you can be. This way when he or she be able to read it, is going to have a good picture about what you are trying to say.

Memories

With a baby, everyday is a day full of surprises. They are curious, playful and very active. With time surely you will have thousands of stories you don't want to forget. Immortalize all these anecdotes in your journal. Babies always are trying something new and there is always a funny story to tell. There is no doubt that both of you are going to have a good time in the future reading those experiences together. Who knows if all those stories runs for generations.

About You

Tell your baby who you are, where you come from, what you like to do, your hobbies and places you like to go. Write about your childhood, how you used to spend your time, write about your friends. Write about everything you want that baby to know about you. You can also write about the whole family. Write stories you remember from your parents or grandparents. It is a good way to keep the family traditions alive. If he or she has brothers or sisters write about them too. Let that baby know how was the family at the time he or she was a newborn. Specially you.


The Purpose

The point is you should not miss to keep record of every special moment in your baby's life. Write for a few years until you think he or she is big enough to have their own memories. Keep this journal in a safe place until is time to share it with them. My advise is to wait until they grow the sufficient to see that journal as a very special gift and they could be able to understand and take the sense of everything you wrote in there. When you finally give the journal, encourage them to keep with so sweet activity or at least to save the journal for the next generations.
