Welcome to our first new format Saturday. This week we are featuring journaling. Please join in and post your inspired layouts to our Flickr gallery! We will post some of our Flickr favorites in the Saturday post on September 24th! Thank you for playing along and we hope you like this new feature!
From our journaling jar, we have three prompts this month:
1. Today when I went outside, I could smell...
2. My favorite teacher was...
3. school bus memories/school bus antics/reaction to seeing your child ride the school bus
............................................
Here are some examples from our team to help you see your journaling challenges translated into pages.
Today when I went outside, I could smell...
While I started this page with the prompt I let it move to an honest place. I have few photos from my childhood and therefore even fewer pages so I love letting the memories flow. This prompt was a great excuse to write some down. xx marnie
My favorite teacher was...
You are going to start to see how I play within the rules (not well apparently!!) I loved so many teachers that I couldn't pick just one. Instead I listed all my elementary teachers and a few random memories from each year. I might try to do one for Jr High next! xx marnie
school bus memories/school bus antics/reaction to seeing your child ride the school bus
I wanted to write down the thoughts that go through my head when my girls get on the bus and head off to school for the day. What stuck with me is the line "my heart is on your bus." That's exactly how I feel as the bus pulls away. ~Jody
This layout chronicles Poppy's thrill of finally getting to ride the bus. Having enviously watched her older brother ride the bus for years, Poppy was excited for her turn. More excited for the bus than school, actually!! xx marnie

That's it! We hope you feel inspired to record a memory or two! Please don't forget to leave a comment and a link to your layout if you make one!! Thank you for stopping and have a wonderful weekend!
