Home movies | 1988

Fortunately my mother is a stubborn and sadistic woman sometimes. I am ever so grateful for the home movies we have. I can remember and even see how much my grandmother, great grandmother and aunts HATED the camera. However now that many of my relatives are gone these are the BEST memories I have its sometimes almost like they never left. The world we live in today is ever different in encourage you to go out to your elders and record their stories. I am grateful for what I have but there was so much more I wish I could remember.
