- Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2025Format: DiaryVerified PurchasePerfect for busy moms- we don’t have time for a proper baby book but we have time to write down our one favorite memory of the day. It’s perfect. I gift this to every new mom.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2020Format: DiaryVerified PurchaseI bought one of these for myself in the beginning of my ‘journey’ into motherhood and have been blessed that I was able to start a 2nd one. I can not express how therapeutic this journal is for a person waiting for their child and for after their child comes. Whether it is through traditional pregnancy, fertility treatments, adoption or for when your children actually arrive this is a great way to not dwell on the entire day but search for the fundamentals that stand out that day. I won’t lie, some entries were brutal, I skipped days, weeks, etc.... but then I grabbed the journal to write down something so funny that my son did and it was on the same day 3 years later that I had written a desperate and sad entry about losing my faith that I would ever have a child and I cried because I saw the process... I saw the true journey. It is hope, laughs, frustrations and joy. Besides that- it makes it EASY to document things about not only your child’s progress but also of your own. It’s simple- one sentence a day. Each page is sectioned off into 5 entries so you can read down the page what a random day of the year was like in a 5 year span. I am keeping them safe to give to my son when he is ready to begin his journey into parenthood ( or just when he is older). I’m sure he will love the entries about getting poop all over me, getting random things stuck up his nose and all the other things but I hope that whatever his journey is he feels connected and not alone reading them and sees how much I hoped, prayed and wished for him.
I give these as gifts now to any new parent and they always say they still use them years later. Any of the One Line A Day journals is a GREAT present to someone. Easy to manage and is small enough to throw in a purse, backpack or whatever. I keep mine by my night stand or with me in my purse.
*And maybe your journal won’t include a child- that is OK. This little journal will help you not dwell on the negative and help you focus on finding joy each day in the little things. There are more ways to be a mom than through giving birth or adopting. Always have faith in yourself to know that you have the capacity to love anyone like a mother. I know plenty of adults who say that their parental figures were good neighbors, teachers, heck even Drill Sergeants in the Military. You’ve got this!
- Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2018Format: DiaryVerified PurchaseI am a very sentimental person so this little book is right up my alley!!!
During my daughter's first year, I used a calendar specifically designed for capturing the milestones of a baby's first year (C.R. Gibson Baby's First Year Calendar, By Cathy Heck Stickers Provided, Measures 11 x 18 - Made With Love). It was a gift and I LOVED It. I made sure to write something every.single.day. I felt so good about preserving the memories. I also always loved to look back on previous months to reflect on things, as it is truly amazing how much development can occur during the first 12 months of life. When the year elapsed and the calendar was full, I was full of anxiety thinking how I was not recording little memories anymore. Thankfully I found this book!!!
By the time I started writing in this book, my daughter was around 15 months old. (Sadly, I have a lag of about 3 months between my calendar ending and then entry of this journal). It is organized such that every "day" has its own page, allowing for 5 entries to cover 5 years. For example, the page for July 20 has 5 blocks on it. You can enter the year for each block, and you have a couple of lines to jot down a thought or a memory for that day. Some days I simply write the new word my daughter learned. Other times I narrate the entire story of our day. Once I have gotten through a full year, I am excited to be able to immediately look up and compare that specific date to the same date in years past. What an amazing way to reflect upon your child's growth!
The only con that I can come up with for this book is that because the pages are so thin (which does have a perk in that it makes this book little and manageable), the ink sometimes bleeds through to other pages. Maybe I write too hard? Not sure, but it has made some of my entries look a little sloppy.
I think this would make a wonderful gift for any mom. I only have one child right now, but this may actually be a really great thing for moms expecting their second, third, fourth, etc child. I know that later-born children often don't get the time/attention that first borns do. This little memory book is a non-overwhelming and simple way for every child's milestones to be saved and celebrated.

- Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2023Format: DiaryVerified PurchaseThe Mom's One Line a Day writing book has become an indispensable part of my daily routine. Even after three years, I continue to make a conscious effort to write in it every single day. Some days may be filled with more excitement than others, but the beauty lies in capturing those simple moments and memories.
I eagerly anticipate the day when I can look back and reflect on what life was like when my kids were babies and toddlers. This book serves as a precious time capsule, allowing me to revisit those cherished moments and emotions. It's incredible how quickly time passes, and having a dedicated space to record snippets of each day ensures that these precious memories are not forgotten.
I highly recommend this book to all moms who wish to create a tangible keepsake that captures the essence of their motherhood journey.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wundervolles, hochwertig verarbeitetes Buch mit einer wunderschönen Idee
Format: DiaryVerified PurchaseWundervolles, hochwertig verarbeitetes Buch mit einer wunderschönen Idee für tolle Erinnerungen, mit der wir jemanden als Geschenk, eine große Freude machen könnten.
Das Buch hat einen dickeren, gefühlt gepolsterten Einband und ist sehr hochwertig verarbeitet.
Die goldenen Seitenränder verleihen ihm einen sehr edlen Eindruck.
Die Buchseiten sind ausreichend dick und man kann auch mit Tinte, ohne Durchpausen, bedenkenlos hineinschreiben.
Jede Seite (jeweils 1 Tag jeden Jahres) verfügt über 5 Unterteilungen, also für die jeweils 5 Jahre. In der ersten Unterteilung wird das erste Jahr auf jeder Seite gefüllt. In der zweiten Zeile dann das nächste Jahr. So sieht man auf einen Blick was z.B. am 1.01. eines jeden der 5 Jahre passiert ist.
Es ist nicht zu viel, aber genügend Platz für 2-3 Sätze zu schreiben vorhanden, so dass die Motivation, es regelmäßig zu führen, leichter erhalten bleibt.
