Mommy Convos

Friday Favorites: My Kid’s Quotes

in Friday Favorites, Our Favorites, Parenting, The Good Life on 13/05/16

IMG_8213Today I get to talk to you about my most prized possession.

It came into my life from an incredible gift-giver and good friend Lindsey (who is pretty amazing at everything she does, in case you are wondering! I hope she can join us here on Mommy Convos for “reader posts” if nothing else!).

When Lindsey gave me this book I can’t say that I was overjoyed about it- I figured it was a journal that I could use to write down things my kids say… if I felt like it. And I just might not feel like it! But as my oldest was approaching her third birthday, she started saying some pretty cute things, and I know most of them would be long gone from my memory if I hadn’t had an easy spot to record them!

A few features about this book that I love, specifically:

  1. The book has you list the date, where you were, and the child’s age. This really helps the memories come to life when I go back and read them. I can remember exactly how she looked when she said that adorably cute quote- and without me recording those details, (especially where we were) the memories would be more cloudy!
  2. This journal doesn’t look just like any old generic journal. So, when I see it in my kitchen, I’m prompted to think about if there’s been anything darling that I’ve missed writing down. That happens to me a lot, so I probably have 32.7% more quotes from my kids because of that. 😉 That means 32.7% more fun memories!
  3. Lastly: It’s well-made and colorful! Quality paper and binding, it’s easy to write in, and the colorful quote bubbles make it a little extra fun.

Now that I know and appreciate those details in the journal- they could easily be recreated in any well-made journal. If you can totally drop $15 bucks on this book, I’d highly recommend it. Buy it here! But, if there just ‘aint the room in the budget for this item, just get yourself a quality journal and try to follow as many of those principles I mentioned above and you should be good!

K, this week’s #fridayfavorites is short and sweet with just one item, but I want to take a second to tell you guys about our plan to incorporate more kids quotes (or as we call them here: convos!) in our lives:

Mommy Convos was founded on the idea of sharing and celebrating in those memorable conversations that we as moms have (with our kids, ourselves, and fellow mommas!) We have a private Facebook group (message us if you want an invite!) and it is designed as a place to share the noteworthy conversations you are having! So, in order to encourage some sharing and perhaps a little entertainment too- Mommy Convos is hosting our first Facebook only give-away for 3 weeks. You enter the giveaway by simply sharing a fun convo you’ve had with your kids in the Facebook group. We’ll pick one convo a week to win one of these darling journals  (below) that are perfect to designate as your kid’s quote book. First winner gets to pick what journal they’d like! All of these journals I’d be happy to use if I didn’t have one already! Let the convos roll in! Tag your friends and family that you’d like to share the quote with too to share the fun 🙂 The most “likes”wins the book for the week!

How cute are those journals?! I hope you win one! The last one says: “All good things are wild and free”, just FYI- call me an amateur, but I could not get it to show up and still have a pretty photo. Well anyway, here’s a couple more pages I thought I’d share with y’all:
