Choose the three photos you’ll sit down with.The first three are the ones Ruth tells with you beside her, so they set the tone. Pick pictures she’ll want to talk about, with people she can name. You don’t need to know the stories. That’s the point. Good first choices | • | A wedding: hers, a sibling’s, a parent’s | | • | A vacation snapshot: the lake, the beach, the drive everyone still talks about | | • | A first day: the house, the shop, the new baby home from the hospital |
Put them on top of the shoebox. Can’t be there in person? A video call works: prop your phone where you can see the pictures, and let Memri do the asking. |
Her first photo or letter is on us. After the first three stories, she can keep going on her own, one photo at a time.
