For many years I have given these calendars to my mother, sister and two daughters for Christmas. They really look forward to receiving these each year as part of our family tradition. It makes me smile to see them opening these calendars as I can see even if there were no other gifts they have their new Mary Engelbriet Calendar for the the next year and that makes them happy. This warms my heart. Of course I have to have one too! The sayings are real and meaningful and the art work that goes into them is outstanding. This is a tradition that will never die.

I've bought this for over 6 years and love it every year. Not only are the pictures darling, there are great sayings for each day and I save the pages to either cut and use in crafts or turn over and use for notes. The paper changes color and design each month and the backs of the pages are decorated with designs just like the front. I've actually got my 18 year old daughter using one for her second year! She has pictures and sayings from it taped all over her college desk. If you love Mary, you'll love this. Once you get one you'll want a new one every year. I have a special spot over my desk area just for the calendar and enjoy seeing what's new each day.
