Here is a great family-oriented activity I found on Pinterest, and so easy to do. Find a large jar and create a label for it that says something like Blessings and Memories Jar for 2013. Then all through the year jot down blessings and memories that you want to remember and put them into the jar. Be sure and include the date or range of dates. On New Year’s Eve, dump out all of the memories and read them together as a family.
At that time you might consider copying or taping them into a scrapbook. It could be a computer-generated one or simply a three-ring binder. Through the scrapbook you can chronicle the highlights of your family’s activities, joys, and perhaps a few disappointing hurdles you had to cross, but that helped you grow into the family you are.
