Over the past few years I have been writing the story of my childhood. This was a project about growing up with my three sisters. While writing my story, so many memories came flooding into my head.
At one point, I met with my sisters to have them tell me the things that they remembered about the years we spent as children. My husband bought me a very small tape recorder, (the size and shape of a cigarette lighter). We all sat down to the table and I placed the tape recorder in the middle of the table. This tape recorder was later downloaded to my computer as a file and I was able to listen to it when I began writing my story.
December 2009, I had my book printed by our local printing company and mailed copies of our story to all my sisters for Christmas.
I started thinking the other day that other family members might enjoy reading our story as well. That is when I talked to my husband about setting up my blog.
The following entries, over time, will be not only reflections of our past, but also entries about the present.

I know this is going to be a great read! Thank you for writing your story.
ReplyDeleteThank you Dawn for your encouraging words. I am looking forward to doing this and will probably tell the story of the trip to Texas in 2006---it was a Hoot.
