Journaling: I admit it. I was never much for decorating the kids' rooms. Number one: It wasn't in the budget. Number two: I always thought it would be too much effort for kids who grew so fast and changed their minds about the latest fad. But at our first house, I did hand-paint Dumbo on the boys' bedroom wall, and they loved him. It was a labor of love. I probably should have done more decorating for them.
