Let the blogging begin !

Welcome to my blog. . . .

If you're one of the people I invited, you're a close family or friend of mine.  As many of you know, I've felt impressed ever since my grandchildren have arrived to tell stories that only I know, stories of struggle and of victory, and especially stories of the second or third generation back that only I know.  Everyone has stories, so why tell these?  Because they are important, and because they are worth telling.  They tell of people who are a part of me, and people who are reflected in my family that are living now, and they are of value to the generations to come and need to be preserved.  

As I journey ahead, I'll be sharing my discoveries and frustrations of looking for my history, and I'll be sharing stories of my childhood and the memories of people and events in my life.  How often?  Hopefully, one a month at a minimum.  

I truly believe that discovering our past allows to see who we will become.  We are not only physical reflections, but we are the hopes and dreams of the generations past.
