| This unique book inspires the reader to capture memories for current and future generations. A stack of precious photos, stories around the family dinner table, milestones along one’s faith journey, awards in a box on a shelf all have meaning. This book gives the reader 500 ways to look back at the meaning of a specific time, place, item, event, or person. Lucie Eggleston and Lucy Lewis share ways to take these raw materials of personal history and preserve the story by creating a gift, a connection, a window to the past and to the future. This hands-on book inspires readers to get past the “fear factors” that have held them back— overwhelming volume of memorabilia, lack of creativity, expense, time, and reluctant family members. It then goes on to share simple ideas for creating your own Family Originals™. In our fast-paced world filled with more and more materialism, this book celebrates family, friends, and relationships—truly the most important “stuff” in our journey through life. |

"This beautiful book is a treasure hunt made easy, a remembering worth our ardent attention, a wonderful gift." - MARK BRYAN, author of Codes of Love: How to Rethink Your Family and Remake Your Life |
