The Story of Us

The Book of Us
|
I love stopping by +Barnes & Noble and looking at some great ideas. Of course this is one of them, a journal for couples called, "The Book of Us" written by David & Kate Marshall (tick for their web page). The authors also have "The Book of Myself" and "The Book of My Pet" for the single and pet owner. This book chronicles your love story in 150 prompts you are made to write about. We take turns writing, every other prompt, and meanwhile having added a sketchbook to draw about a prompt instead when we are not writing about it, so we do not miss a turn.

Table of Contents |
Here is a list of contents highlighting the major milestones in the relationship, from introduction to the later years. Here are a few prompts, one from each stage, to think about; "If this had not happened, we never would have met..., We decided to do these important things before marrying..., We bought our first home..., This was particularly joyful for us as parents..., After we retired, we had more time to..." And 145 more. This makes for a great anniversary gift, or Valentine's Day gift that can walk you down memory lane with that special someone or preserve the precious memories as they happen, as in our case.
