TRANSITION #12

My mother wrote about her life as a wife and mother. It is so nice to have that now that I cannot ask her for some of the history that has not stayed in my memory. Here I am showing her notes and some of the pages I have transferred into digital form along with my calendar to keep me on track my daily obligations.

A precious historical record.. so much is always lost. How wise for her to write it down and for you to preserve these memories. This image captures one soul passing her essence to another.

Keepsakes to be handed down from generation to generation. As others have said, this is a very well organized arrangement.
