I believe there is a similar version of this story of Picasso sitting in a cafe where 2 ladies ask to buy the napkin that he is drawing on. He quotes a huge amount and the ladies are shocked. and Picasso responds that I have been at it for over 30 / 60 years.

I would include a brief medical history, any surgeries etc. I would also include any burial paperwork. Any car titles might be helpful too. lastely, if you are putting original documents in this binder, put it in a fire box for sure!

Absolutely loved your daughter, you and your sister all together. Made me nostalgic for the days my grandma, my mom, my sister and me were all in the same room.. #amazingmoments.. we all live in different states now and my grandmother passed away a couple months before my seven years old daughter was born... so thank you for the blast from the past memories!!!
