How about a list of moments and memories? We're all getting older and our memories are fading. Inspired by Rosanne Cash's CD The List as well as her live show, my sister and I collaborated on a list of Christmas moments and memories as a gift to our parents. Although we typed it ( my handwriting is atrocious!), we handed it to our parents on Christmas day. We didn't tweet it, facebook it, text it or email it.
What would be on your list and who would you give it to? Maybe birthday memories shared with your parents? or maybe a list of songs that you listened to as a teenager or college student and you share it with your child of that same age?
The List by Rosanne Cash is a twelve track CD of songs her father, Johnny recommended her to know. He called it her, "education". That list was 100 in total. Here's what I hope is the first CD of many. ( added are a few photos from her live show at Minneapolis Orchestra this past November):
