A Project

During the past thanksgiving holiday, I got a chance to understand that although I shared 19 and more years with my children, their stories are much different than mine.  I am thinking of extending this blog to include them and their perceptions, stories and experiences that I may have missed along the way because I was working, on the phone, at a workshop or simply not in a space that I could manage their perspective or my own.

I'd like to star out simple,  invite them to comment on a particular "event" that I remember happening in our lives but perhaps did not get their full perspective on it.  I am hoping that this activity will increase to include stories that can be weaved together to form the matrix of a life well lived, a childhood memory of love, humor, stress, beating or succumbing to the odds, and best of all an understanding of where we were and are as a family.  I am going to start out small.  Really small, because I don't even know how to invite them to comment on this blog or participate in this with me.

Can someone explain how I invite specific people to post here?  thanks for any and all help!
