As Mother’s Day has recently passed and Fathers’ Day is just around the corner, we wanted to share some useful tools to capture your parents’ legacy. In fact, you may find some ideas to capture your own so that you can share it with your own children and grandchildren.
Your parents are an instrumental part of who you are. From your first steps across the living room floor to your steps of achievement across the stage at graduation, your parents have watched you grow and have contributed to elements of your personality. Perhaps you never even realized the extent of this dedication until you became a parent yourself. When a parent is facing a life-limiting illness, it’s difficult to process the emotions surrounding the event.
During times like this, we find that it is important to capture your parent’s legacy. Not only does this help you cope with the intense feelings you are experiencing, but it also gives you a beautiful memory to pass down to your children, grandchildren, and even great-grandchildren who would have never had an opportunity to meet your parents.
We’ve compiled five useful tools you can use to capture your parent’s legacy.
1. Scrapbooking
Scrapbooking doesn’t have to be a labor-intensive, time-consuming event filled with perfectly designed pages and matching stickers. However, you may find that working with your parent to create this scrapbook makes you want to spend more time working on the project with them.
Some items you may want to put in the scrapbook can include:
