With a sturdy hardcover binding, this journal is one that children will treasure forever. Share your jokes, trade your secrets, and create some one-on-one moments of screen-free joy with your kids. Celebrate the joy of us, not just you or me, with this meaningful journal.

Eileen Grimes was born in Seattle, Washington and called home wherever she and her five siblings and parents lived throughout childhood. Growing up as a middle child in a big family, Eileen learned quickly the importance of being seen and having quality time with her parents. The Us Journal came to life after Eileen had her own two children to support by building intentional time for connection. Eileen lives in Spokane, WA, with her family where she hopes to build community and a movement with kids and adults who feel seen, loved, and whole.
