Greetings! 

The other day my four-year-old son Bryan spotted an old station wagon. Puzzled, he looked at it and asked, "Why is that car all smushed down?"  

 

I laughed and realized that in this age of the ubiquitous family minivan, my son had never seen a true station wagon! Later that night, my son Adam asked me what life was like before we had Google and cellphones. I realized that history is changing right before my eyes, and the "history" part is really important to document.

 

In light of that, I wanted to let you know that I appreciate your loyal readership as I've expanded my business offerings and newsletter topics. Going forward, I've decided to focus this newsletter exclusively on what you originally came here for - how to best help your family capture their stories and record your history. 

 

If you enjoyed the new topics on how video affects your work life, I will be launching a new newsletter next month geared toward small business and nonprofit organizations. If you'd like to subscribe, click here or send me an email. 

 

It is definitely March Madness in my house right now, as my little boys will be celebrating back-to-back birthdays this weekend (they are exactly 3 years apart, minus about 12 hours) and my "big" boy will be glued to the TV, anxious for his top-seeded Syracuse team to win it all.

 

I hope you enjoy our early spring!

 


 

Warmly,

The Beauty of Aging
A client discovered this upcoming documentary film called, "The Beauty of Aging" and shared it with me (thanks Phyllis!) and I wanted to take a moment to share it with you. The film stars several women over the age of 80 and attempts to dispel the myths about aging with their extraordinary stories.

I particularly love this project because it reminds me of so many of my clients - all who have amazing stories to share and many who have incredible attitudes towards living life to the fullest. I hope you find this trailer (though a bit long at over 9 minutes) inspiring. If nothing else, watch the first few minutes with the dancing lady above!

I was looking for a special way to honor my mother. She has such wonderful memories and has led such an amazing life. I wanted to be sure that my kids and grandkids would get to see the sparkle in her eyes as they hear her tell those stories in her own words.
