I'm so glad I found this in my very cluttered inbox. For some reason it didn't pop up in the app where I usually find the latest from people.

Similar to you, I've recently been seeing the power of hearing the family stories through my siblings eyes. Even better, we have been looking at those stories as tails we can redefine. What the events taught us about survival at the time, are not set in stone. We can look back and understand how they were tied to a place and time. And even though I've had a lifetime of living using those old rules, I'm getting better at seeing how they don't work for the person I am, or family I am in, now.

Patricia, love the zigging and zagging here. And the cute dolls.
