Calder writes a page of journal every night. He writes about where he went and what he ate for the day. Recently I saw that he has begun to input the colour of chairs he sat on too. As a result, there isn't space for him to record some of the interesting events that happen nearer the end of the day. Two days ago, I had an idea. I write prayer journals every morning on an Android app called Journey. Why not get Calder to type his journal right into his handphone? So yesterday, I downloaded the Journey app onto his handphone and got him to type his journal. He usually has enough lines to pen 21 entries in his paper journal, so I ask him to type 25 items. I left Calder to the typing. At one point, I saw that he needed to rest his arm. That's when I noticed that he had typed 34 entries! Voila! Now I can see more clearly into Calder's days, all the things that left an impression on him. There's no more need to ask him to erase one line to make space for a more interesting item. I will also know how he spent his time from beginning to end of the day. Level up indeed!
