I am about to embark on a journey. It will be a long one, one that will be filled with joy, laughter, smiles, tears, heartache and maybe even sadness. But the biggest gift will be the memories and stories that I will get to uncover. I have no finish line in sight because I want to tread slowly, sit with each memory, and take it all in, how each of these moments has moulded me into the person that I am today. I want enjoy this amazing gift that I have been given.
I have my photos and they are in no order, they are all jumbled up, some have stories written on the back but most have nothing. This is the part that I am excited about. Looking at a photo and writing down the memories that come to mind. The photos that have no story and ones that I have no memory of will be the ones that I pick up, delight in the possibilities of memories and stories, then sit down with an older relative and get lost in their stories.
Why am I doing this? That's a very good question.
As you know I am lucky enough to be on the Creative Team for Wilson Wilson and this Friday the 3 March 2023 a beautiful collection will be released - "Childhood" and this collection is full of inspiration to document your own story or maybe the story of your own children.
This beautiful collection is filled with journal cards, templates and much more to document your story. The few photos that I have shared here are only just a few, there are so many more but each one is of a time that was long ago, some I remember and some I do not. They include precious images of people that I know and love well and those who I met as a young child. Each has a story, an amazing story and details that I am itching to find out.
