My Book of Remembrance

Aunt Jennie sent me a scrapbook for my birthday. The cover is red with “My Book of Remembrance” written on the front in big blue letters. Inside, the pages are thick and gray.

I decided to put the supplies I needed to work on my scrapbook in a shoe box. I soon had the box filled with markers, crayons, stickers, scissors, glue, and tape.

Mom is going to help me fill my book with things about me. She said that when I have filled this book, she will buy me another one!

For the first page I glued a photo of me and signed my name below it. Then I wrote, “My eyes are green. My hair is brown. I am six years old.”

On the next page, I glued a special letter from Grandma. It is the first letter that I have ever received.

Last month I wrote my dad a poem for Father’s Day. Then I colored purple flowers all around it. Dad said it was OK to glue it in my book.

On another page, I drew pictures of my mom, dad, brother, cat, and me. I added a photo of the whole family and wrote, “We are a family.”

Mom helped me find a picture of the Portland Oregon Temple to glue in my book. I want everyone to know that we are a forever family.

I drew a picture of my house and my favorite climbing tree. I also wrote my address and phone number on the page.

If you read my book of remembrance, you will learn lots of things about me. You can fill a scrapbook with things about you, too. When people read it, they will learn about your history!
