Mini Diaries

I've been an avid journal writer since I was a kid...I have journals and journals that are just FULL. Lately, of course, I tend to just (sometimes) write down the important events (like "we're having a baby'...a month later). It totally stinks. So when I came across this idea of Mini Diary's ...I fell in love. It's such a cute idea (seriously, clickity click on that link). But the thing I DON'T like...is the questions.
I love the smell of...
I love the sounds of...
I love the taste of...
I love the feel of...

Are those questions everyday applicable? Journal wise....they kind of just scratch the surface. Don't they?

For me....my questions might include things about what my kids say each day (cause you know they keep the entertainment rolling), if I made an attempt to serve someone, did I remember to brush my teeth (kidding...I think). My pregnancy brain keeps me from thinking things thru...so I'm opening my question of questions up to YOU. What questions would you answer everyday? Riddle me this...and maybe, just maybe, I'll make you one of these when I make one for myself (can't promise they'll be as purdy...but I try Ü).

I love all the ideas. Ones I would have to include on my part would be:

Anyway, I'm looking forward to a compiled list! I've been slacking on the blogging lately and I think this would help on my writer's block days.
