I am a very sentimental person so letting go of some things can be really hard for me. But I did master fighting it out in the past few years but still, I keep letters and keepsakes (especially those that do not cosume much space) from my friends and former students. they are treasures to me as much as my collections :)<br /><br />Thank you so much Lydia and hope to see you again on Timeless Thursdays :)Stevenson Qhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12137070659644887162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-119733539095505639.post-74994078486246626082020-08-24T15:47:12.528-07:002020-08-24T15:47:12.528-07:00I try not to empty closets and boxes because I get...I try not to empty closets and boxes because I get waylaid by memories. :)Magical Mystical Teacherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01853272111925075994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-119733539095505639.post-27322207667922669042018-11-27T15:00:34.697-08:002018-11-27T15:00:34.697-08:00Awwww!

I started going through the box of baby clothes and I got so emotional remembering the different things we had done when they were wearing it, where we got it from etc. The tugs at the heart when I thought about how little they were was tough!

Now my youngest is fitting into the Spider Man and Shrek and Captain Jack Sparrow costumes that were much beloved by my older sons.

What I have hung onto is the Fisher Price Dollshouse that each of the 8 g'kids had played with (boys and girls) and so many of the characters. It is something they all still check out even though they are older. One day, I can see them showing their kids this..maybe. I am hugely sentimental but had to lose that for a while when we moved house. No-one can take my memories away though..old age maybe!!
