Hello lovely people! It is now the seventh day of the Gratitude Scavenger Hunt Challenge shared by Sade of Keep it alive.
The instruction was to find something that you can use to gift someone. I thought of my mom since we will be celebrating Mother’s day on May 12. As you may already know, my mom has Alzheimer’s disease. Her mind is slowly degenerating which makes her forgetful especially us her children.
I was at a loss what to give her and I was thinking of something that might be useful for her. I searched the internet and it gave me an idea to make her a scrapbook. I will print pictures of her, my dad, my sisters, our own families and me. Making it will be easy as I have helped my youngest with his scrapbook that was a requirement for their school.
What I mean by easy is I already arranged our photos then. My youngest son’s project took weeks to finish it as the photos are not well documented.
I’m hoping the scrapbook will help my mom go down the memory lane. She might not remember many memories but I’m hoping this will trigger the memories she forgot. I’m crossing my fingers I’ll complete it in one week.
I’m sharing with you pages from my son’s scrapbook.
What do you think of my gift?

A perfect idea. I hope it helps her with remembering. You are a good daughter. Stay blessed

Thank you! Trying to be a good one. She texted me a while ago informing me she’ll go visit me when she’s feeling okay. I guess she remembered the days when she used to travel far just to visit us.

Hi Winnie, I think the scrapbook is a very appropriate and thoughtful gift. Since your son played a large part in this, it will mean even more to you, your son, and your Mom. The scrapbook photo pages made me smile:) Erica
