A Wonderful Keepsake Gift Idea

It has been said, there is more happiness in giving than in receiving. And that has proven true since the nearly 2000 years in which these words were first spoken. So let's make some keepsake gifting happiness!

Nothing has more value than a keepsake. Why? Keepsake gifts are much more personal and nostalgic than other gifts because they're connected to a special occasion, memory and how we felt at that moment. Such a gift is remembered and cherished for a long, long time. 

Keepsake gifts are often inscribed with the name of the recipient, dated or signed by hand. Such gifts are often so highly valued that they become the ideal family heirloom.  In addition, keepsakes are intimate, considerate, personal gifts that are meant to be preserved for all time.  

Keepsakes gifts trigger an emotional memory that evokes commitment and love.  That said, family keepsakes get special treatment, they become family heirlooms. Fimark's Family Reunion Planner: Keepsake Heirloom Edition is just such a timeless gift. As writer and designer of this new reunion planner I am pleased to present this complete family keepsake heirloom to your family to be cherished for generations to come.

The Value of A Moment Is In The Memories

"Sometimes you don't appreciate
the value of a moment
until it becomes a memory."

Truer words have never been spoken. Family is constantly in transition. Precious ones must leave us while new ones arrive and fill our hearts with joy.  That's why I like to take photos and video of our youngest and eldest family members in a setting that speak volumes about their interests, traits, qualities, abilities. 

I catch them singing and dancing, cooking and crafting. I listen while they're telling stories and I try to ask thoughtful questions to open the unspoken pages of their lives. I especially love to see their reaction when a question triggers a fond memory. As we turn the pages of their regained memories together, to see their eyes light up and their smile gleam makes it all so worthwhile. 

Why not go for walks and talk about life from their perspective. It's a good idea to let them know that you were watching and listening by repeating their thoughts in context at appropriate times. And at the end of the day write down some of what was said and the lessons learned.

If they were caught on video laughing, joking, crafting or having an aha moment set it to background music and see the magic take you away. When you come back the notes, photos and video a few years later it will have so much more meaning than you ever knew it could.
