I agree

Also, just fyi, your constitution should be designed so that you dont need to make amendments to it. Its supposed to be a general overview of how things are supposed to work (from my experience in several different types of orgs).
As far as notation goes, I would imagine that if something you changed in your constitution effected the language or content of your bylaws, then when its presented and voted on, that concern should be presented as well. In turn, once the vote is passed, then the language/content should be changed in both and the date of amendment logged on both documents.
