Thank you so, so much for reading. Slowing down can be so difficult these days (hello, social media) but when I took a second and read her story (she used to wash her clothes by hand and cut wood for her family!) it really gave me such a humbling peace. <3

How absolutely lovely it is to slow down and reflect on a life well lived. Your grandmother sounds delightful.

Thank you for loving and reading! I’ve had a few people go out and purchase some journals for their grandparents. And now I want to get one for my parents, too! ๐Ÿ™‚

Thank you for your insight.

Thank you so much for reading, Laurie! Yes! Definitely go visit ๐Ÿ™‚ I’m going to buy some of these journals for my parents too. It’s so meaningful for us to keep their stories. Have a lovely trip to California!

I’ve been meaning to visit my 92 year old Aunt in California and learn what I can from her. You have given me the push to make the plans!

Thank YOU so much for reading! I’m so sorry to hear about your grandpa. But, I’m so glad to hear you bought journals for your grandma and parents! I need to do the same for my parents. I learned so much about her through that journal. And the best thing was? She felt bashful about being asked about her life because no one had in a long time. I will do anything to make her life meaningful for her ๐Ÿ™‚ Grandparents can be the rocks of families and they certainly deserve that love! Much love to you as well!

My grandpa recently died in December, and it was a long and painful thing for our family to go through as he was our rock, and the first in our family to pass. My grandma has since moved into a new home closer to us by herself and I know that she’s lonely, but we’re so happy she’s close by so that we can visit with her more often. I’ve just purchased this same book (along with one each for my mom and dad!) so we can share all of these stories they may or may not think are important to tell!

Thank you so much! Sunday family visits are the very best. We need to bring those back more often! <3

Thank you so, so much <3 She doesn't have a computer so I will be printing this out and sending it to her via snail mail ๐Ÿ™‚ I'll have to include all these lovely comments!
