Speaking of granddaughters.... And IF you're not too busy helping others.... I wanted to add something about my granddaughter as well: I've started a notebook - a journal of sorts. I'm writing down where I was born, when, how, describing my home, my family/relatives, games we played, how innocent and uncomplicated and safe life was "back then."
Thought that would be a good historical memory of my life...
I am so glad you are doing that. Now that I am a grandmother I feel like I am the bridge between my parents and grandparents and the next generation, my sons and my granddaughter. I am the one transferring the family history, passing the torch so to speak. I think it is important for their roots....for them to know where they came from. I'm certain your granddaughter will love having your journal some day.
