Journaling

(it's early in the morning!)

Not too long ago I purchased a journal at Target (in the dollar bins OF COURSE!) to put our thoughts down on paper. We plan on giving this journal to our adopted child when we feel the time is right. We are hoping to keep recording our feelings and thoughts in the journal (might have to add a few to the collection) until the child turns 18. That way even when we aren't around they can see how we felt, feel, thought, and think. I saw this idea on pinterest and thought it was a great way to keep track of all the ups and downs of the adoption process!


Have any of you done similar things? How long did you write? Did you continue it as long as you thought you would? 


Still all happy, scared, excited, tired, adventurous, confident, courageous, and overwhelmed. That's a lot of emotions to be feeling all at once!
