Memory Jar

I've seen this floating around pinterest and facebook, and thought it was a really great idea. You write down all your happy little memories and things you want to remember (but will surely float to the back of your brain over the course of a year) and fill up an empty jar. On the next New Years Eve (or any significant event, one year later), you open up your jar and reflect back on all the little happy moments of the past year. Sweet, huh?
I started our memory jar today - we've already got 3 little pieces of paper in there! I'm betting that by next December our little jar will be so packed full of love and laughter and precious little moments, that we will have a hard time stuffing paper in.  I tied a little heart shaped notepad to the jar and put a pen in the jar, so it's always handy. It's currently sitting on my kitchen window sill, so I will see it every time I do dishes (a hundred billion times a day, some days).
