But the best thing is that the book is structured in a way that you have the possibility to make it “abbreviated”, make it your own.  The project will develop into what you want it to be by simply sliding photos and journaling into pocket dividers. Include a picture a day or just a couple a week, with journaling or without. Pick the theme, baby’s first year, family journal, or a year of a child, a gift for a grandma. The possibilities are endless.

To keep you on track there will be a 365 blog to tune into for ideas and sharing, as well as emails for guidance and inspiration. So sign up to make 2010 the year that you remember and record the daily details of life.
