“Memories and Mementos”
We all have our memories/mementos whether it be something that belonged
to our child or a picture that reminds us of something we did with
our child or something they had done or just something that makes
us think of our child no matter how old they were when they died.
Bring a picture, memento or something belonging to your child/grandchild/sibling
and share the story with the group. |
