I have to admit I'm not very outdoorsy one bit. So my way of leaving a legacy is so different from what you described. Though my dream of having children never came true, we were blessed when my niece and her 4 children moved to our town 3 years ago. I decided to keep a journal for each of the girls (now 10 and 8) so they would have memories of their childhood and little editorial comments from their great aunt about "life." I'm saving these journals to give them either at my death or when they go to college or marry-- whichever comes first. It's so catharctic to write in their books almost daily. My husband and I are godparents and aunt/uncle, so I feel like the kids are mine on many levels since we see them so often and get firsthand experiences babysitting. I hope they'll love their surprise as much as I love them!Patti Bertschlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06380788732939998103noreply@blogger.com
