tangerinelouise's Profile

I know it is a little late for this holiday season but for my daughter's first Christmas I interviewed all my grandparents who were luckily still living. I gave them a questionnaire with questions from what was their favorite candy bar growing up to questions about what they remembered about their grandparents. I asked social history questions and asked them to write any advice they would want to pass on to my daughter. They were kind enough to share photos I had never seen. I learned so much about myself, my family and what their hopes were growing up.

I compiled all the information in a beautiful album and pointed out the pictures for their birthday. Babies get so many toys that I think it can be overwhelming. This is something they will always treasure and my grandparents had a fun time too. Some of my grandparents are no longer here so this truly is a gift that will last.
