In the middle of life; I failed to organize our children’s memorabilia. I regret being so focused on working and running our kids all over that it never crossed my mind about the importance of keeping these items dated and organized.
In 2020, I have had some time to go thru files and boxes. I have found so many memories! The question is how am I going to organize this information?
First, I scanned these items. Some I saved as PDFs and some as pictures. The PDFs are saved on our server where they are backed up. The picture files are transferred to a desktop software call Historian where I can “tag” each item. Important papers and pictures are uploaded and stored in my on-line, private, encrypted account.
Finally…our family history is getting organized.
Have a question? Want to learn how you can accomplish this too? Please call or e-mail me.
