My dad was an excellent scrapbook creator and my mom was a "top notch pack rat" for keeping old report cards, test scores, "love notes", artwork and other keepsakes from elementary school for me.
It is such a blessing for me to be able to share these things with my two daughters. My mom used to share with me glimpses of her life through vivid stories that helped me learn so much that I always appeared older in wisdom than my age. So I am working hard to do the same for my GREAT GREAT GREAT GRANDCHILDREN-LOL. I am writing a book to capture all of my LIFE LEARNED LESSONS to pass down and prayerfully take a tradition to the NEXT LEVEL where each generation will pass the baton to the next with better and better lessons learned.
I invite U all to check out my year to date progress.
It is called, "Cotton Pickin' Paycheck-A 21st Century Journal of Escape from Slavery".
http://www.cottonpickinpaycheck.com/ I pray that it inspires SOMEONE to leave something for their legacy
too!
Sisterly love,
Joan
