My Best Idea So Far...


Okay, so I'm a little behind on my blogging. I still have pictures to upload and at least four different posts that need to be written about Maggie's baptism, Dixon's blessing, peach canning and a funeral, but I REALLY wanted to post about my best idea so far.


See, Mike and I used to be big note writers. You know, notes left on the kitchen counter, in a lunch box, on the white board or on the seat of a car. It was always such a pick-me-up to get a little love note written by your sweetie. Then somewhere between Mike's business, the mortuary, our callings, the housework and our five children, we stopped being note writers.


It's so easy to lose yourself to all your responsibilities and have nothing left at the end of the day to give your spouse, and being in one of those slumps, I started thinking that we NEED to be note writers again. That's when what I can only call pure inspiration flowed into my mind and I decided to start yet another blog. Yes, really. This one's entitled, Letters To Each Other, and that's exactly what it is. A blog completely privatized, just for Mike and I to leave notes to each other on, and one day for our children to have a record of. Brilliant, I know. Now stop wishing you'd thought of it and go start your own note writing.

That really does sound like a great idea!

Great idea...but if I waited for Dave to write me a letter I would die a disappointed woman! When we were dating he bought me a decorative box with a note inside that said "check this box once in a while and you might find a treat". I guess the operative word was "might" because I've been checking it for four years and it's been empty every time! Nice thought....
