Import notes from multi-line field

Import notes from multi-line field

We have always used a multi-line field to type in notes for our contacts but I'd like to move over to the actual "notes" section instead. I have been putting this off because I don't know how to import the existing data to the notes section. We currently enter a new note into the multi-line field by starting with today's date then the note then adding a line break (or 2) before the next note.

Is there any way to import this data to the notes section and have the system split the notes up at each line break?
