yep....wife is finding that out the hard way...we have four boxes of three generations of photographs and paper history stored in the far dark corner of the shed...her two kids want none of it...whereas I would have cherished paper history of my folks.^ Nice!
Having Children does not guarantee that you have someone who will welcome and treasure your treasures! Enjoy your memories.
well....being a child of my third wife was not fun...so her son not interested in a family and daughter had rough and tumble. so she only had one. and the grandson was rough and tumble....so sometimes family history should just be dust. Even with wife siblings, they don't want photos, nor do they foster good father relationships. It happens... many estate sales have boxes of photos and scrapbooks. lucky for me.....as you can read....I write and write. so my younger sister has my ten boxes (fruit store boxes) of journals and scrapbooksa and sketch books and notebooks...since I was 20. plus all the letters I received and rough drafts of letters I wrote. My collection could be a rare Americana of a blue collar raised renaissance man. who wanted to write the American novel .....and perhaps I did in those 10 boxes. .... alas.... now is the time to cue Harry Chapin TaxiA grandson/daughter? Sometimes interest skips a generation!

Happy Celebration DAY.... a day set aside for frontline workers or retail folks....I’ll be cooking the side dishes for a Turkey we are sharing with my sister’s family today. She’s fixing the Turkey, we’ll meet up on the porch to share the food. She and her honey have other plans for Thanksgiving day, so we celebrate today! We will be eating in our own homes, doing FaceTime.
Thank you! It was a great time. Lots of leftovers, and made some meals to bring to church for distribution as frozen meal for those who need.Happy Celebration DAY.... a day set aside for frontline workers or retail folks....🍽🍽🍽🍽
my mother was a frontline worker for two years, I did retail for two years and army mess halls alternated years of serving thanksgiving.
