The story of our five year journals: Nearly a decade ago, I sat down and designed these journals because I wanted a way to record my most treasured memories year after year. My vision was a locally-made, beautiful hardbound book with high quality, luxurious-feeling paper that I would love writing in night after night.

I'm now in my eighth year, and the ability to look back and reminisce on memories is an incredible blessing. In particular, I cherish the memories of my children and seeing how they've grown and changed, along with myself.

Currently, I use two journals - one for memories and one for daily reflections - and it's a practice that has brought immense insight, joy, and growth. 

One of my favorite aspects of our five year journals is their versatility - you can use them in so many different ways with so many different benefits. Here are just a few ideas of what to record:

• Daily highlights and memories
• Gratitude and blessings
• Reflections
• Inspiring ideas and quotes
• Baby or child updates
• Funny moments from the day
• Reading notes and book reviews
• Meals and recipes
• Health and wellness journey
• Accomplishments (big and small) 

Whether for yourself or a loved one, the practice of journaling daily (with just a few lines a day so it's not overwhelming) is an impactful one that you'll appreciate more with each passing year, I promise.

Product Details: Our journals are wrapped in a beautiful cloth material and feature thick, bright-white paper. At 5.5" x 8.25" they're the perfect size - big enough to write in but small enough to carry around. 100% designed and crafted with care in the United States.
