SCRAPPING IT ALL

submitted by: William Olson

On New Year’s Eve I presented my wife with a scrapbook that included things that came out of our year together.  Movie Tickets and reviews, matchbook covers from restaurants that we had been at, post cards, photo’s, cards that were given for her birthday, anniversary, Valentines Day, Mother’s Day – for no reason at all cards.  Post cards from places we had been, excerpts from my journal, newspaper clippings on topics that she cares about – all things that came out of the year that we had just completed were pasted into the
scrapbook.

We have spent hours going through and talking and remembering all that we did together.  When she wants to find something out about an activity that we did last year, she knows where to go.  She is so proud to show her friends.  I am already saving and pasting the memento’s from this year into a new book.  She tells me that it is a great and very romantic way to let her know that my time with her is very special to me.
