Family History - Talents

Here is this week's journal prompt :

________________

Each Tuesday, I am going to be offering prompts or ideas. If you don't write in your journal regularly - I am going to encourage you to write just ONCE A WEEK and answer the question/idea that I give on Tuesdays. These ideas hopefully will spark a memory and you will be able to capture that in what you write/record so that it can be left for your children/grandchildren/family/friends. Give as much detail as you can when answering.

Will you do this for me? Will you do this for your families? You can write it down in a journal, you can                       type it up on a computer or journaling software, you can take a recorder and talk, you can videotape your answers, you can even scrap a page with the journaling. It doesn't matter how you do this - it's just important that you do it. The memories, the dates, the information is the only real thing we can leave to our families when we are gone.

If I come up with other family history ideas - I will be sure to share it here too - and if you want to share with me your ideas - that would be wonderful and I'd be glad to share them here too. Just comment here or email me at dedesmith32@gmail.com.

High/Low: June 7th + Freebie

My LOW this Week is that I didn't really accomplish much this week. We are trying to get going on a new routine for the summer here in the Smith household and it's taking some time to get used to having the kids home all day.

My HIGH for this Week is that I'm blogging again! I don't know about you, but I'm excited that I have been getting some posts up this week - I guess that is accomplishing SOMETHING isn't it?



I have a freebie for you today - a STACKZ that coordinates with my new JUST HAVETA PLAY BASKETBALL!
