My oldest, 9 years old, decide last year to start writing down all the stories I tell. My stories range as far back as stories that my Great-Great Grandfather would tell to my very own. I was raised, I guess, in the old bardic tradition; but she has taken it to a new level in the 21st century. She digitally records me telling a story, saves it on her computer, and documents it in a journal. I am proud that she is continuing the family tradition. I am sure it will make a few friends of mine happy too, such as Skaggy, Gary, and Ruthie. All from across the pond in England, and all bards in their own right. (Links at the end of the blog)
It makes me happy to know that these stories will not end with me, and will continued to be passed to a "bard" in each generation.
