"It was the 300 song titles that got mom and dad dancing again. I asked them what were their favorite songs but they said they couldn't remember. So I told Alexa to start playing one of the song titles on your list, and mom and dad got up and started to dance. It was so fun that now we have one night a week when us kids all come over and we have a 'Dance to Their Music' night (with masks)." - MARY JEAN S.

"Our son gave my husband and me your journal. We spent this year filling it out. Now, I'm making copies of every page and giving this as a Journal of Our Lives to each of our children. In some of the pages, I even put their favorite recipes." - Kathy C.
It was my sister, Leslie who started writing 365 questions in a journal and giving them to my mom at Christmas. Mom would gift her with a completed journal from the year before.
This went on for 6 years. Then my sister was hit and killed by a car. My mom stopped writing. She just couldn't. When she passed, I got one of her journals. Many of Leslie's questions are in The 365 Journal.
Mom's answers were funny, deep in thought and sometimes she would write, "No comment!" Hmmm...
"My father never told me anything but he would tell the home health worker everything. So, when Maureen came over I had her start asking your questions. The stories he told!" - DARLENE A. -
