But actually, we didn't. Our name is from the Italian and Spanish for "moment." It also sounds similar to the word "memento," which is an object, like a ticket stub or photo, that you keep to remind yourself of the good times. It's a "two-fer."
To me the word reminds us to pay attention to the little things, to live in the moment and enjoy what we have, rather than thinking of what might have been. It speaks to me about why I scrapbook - to tell my stories to my family, and to remember the little details that add up to so much.
You can "live in the momento," with t-shirts and other items available at Cafepress.
