Welcome to another year of being organised with The Mum's Memory Diary & Organiser for 2012.
The Mum's Memory is a compilation of lists, charts and dates that I want to share with every mother out there who likes to stay organised and be able to take your life with you in your handbag!
Early 2010 was a busy time for me and my family. My eldest child was about to start Prep, my youngest was getting his first molars and having his immunisations, my husband was working shift work and I was going to countless doctors appointments, blood tests, scans and tests. I needed to be organised...but I wasn't! On top of being busy running a family household of four, I was also very forgetful thanks to my "condition".
I could not find any diary, calendar or appointment book on the market that I could keep everything together and organised. My girlfriends who had kids had this problem also.
So I put my 15 years of Graphic Design skills to work and designed an organiser for myself. One that would keep me at the top of my game and keep me from forgetting very important dates and information about me and my family.
Over a few months the pages started to multiply, a few lists soon became a ring bound booklet...and it continued to grow and grow. It was looking amazing...and friends wanted copies of my home printed beauty. So I decided to get it professionally printed and share it with as many Mums as I could to make their lives easier! Hence...The Mum's Memory was created!
My family and I live in Manly (Qld) Australia, and have a wonderful life now that I am well. I had thyroid cancer and at the time it was very debilitating and tiring. After surgery in April 2010, I am a new person, with a lot of life to catch up on and a lot of important events ahead of me that I wasn't sure I was going to see. Now I know that each year from now on, The Mum's Memory Diary & Organiser will keep me on track.
I am thrilled to be able to offer this book to other gorgeous Mums so that we can all aim... to be the best Mums we can be!
