My kids, as you guys already know are old enough to draw and paint with assistance, but not old enough to write legibly. I am not wishing their lives away, I am glad to wait until this new stage hits. In the meantime, I am planning to make some journals with them that we can all use together one day.
I was at a home school conference a few years back and one of the speakers was a woman who is on staff at a local church here- Life Church- where the You Version Bible app came from.
I have been to the church and it is great, but not my home church. However, one of the ladies held a seminar at the home school convention where she said she uses journals with her kids to communicate. She said that often when they get older, they may stop sharing as much as they used to due to feeling like parents might yell or judge them etc. She started with her son and daughter if I am not mistaken, and it was a hit.
Just join the link up and leave your prayer request in the comments or in your blog post or with the hosts via their email addresses and expect a miracle! I am! 
Make me laugh! {right now}
