That's really fantastic, aren't you glad they made you do that as a kid? I wish I'd done that. I'd love to have those memories. There's a Question a day 5 year joural which I gave to a friend's teenage son. I hope he writes in it. It's very simple and doesn't give a lot of room, but it's better than nothing and it can spark the journalling. It's a nice inexpensive and potentially incredibly valuable gift.
My wife has journals from the time she was 8 years old!! We have them put away. It was her influence that got me writing.
