Today is a gorgeous September day in St. George, Utah. We have had a little bit of rain and the temperature is just around 80 degrees. As I am enjoying the perfection, I am also realizing that "The HOLIDAYS"--Halloween, Thanksgiving, Hannukah,Kwanzaa, and Christmas--are just around the corner!
It seems to me that this time of year is when our hearts turn to our families and friends more than at any other time. It's the time for precious traditions and to celebrate relationships by finding the "perfect gift" for our loved ones. We can let it be a stressful time of year, or it can be magical! The difference is in the preparation!
I met the cutest man--probably in his late 60s--who is passionate about preserving the journals of his mother and grandmother for his children. His idea of the perfect gift for them was to scan the precious handwritten pages and place them in a beautiful hardbound storybook that will last forever.
He has the right idea! His childhood traditions and maternal heartstrings will be shared through time. I can't think of a more preciously perfect gift! Can you? AND he is starting NOW!
I can't wait to see (and post) the final product...
