In part 1, I talked about the burls in bark that occur on some trees as a metaphor for branches of family trees. This piece focuses on the storytelling we use in our families to build our personal narratives. Members' monthly posts celebrate their contributions to family history storytelling in all its forms.
Since she was already a two-time contributor of Project Recipes, I'm thrilled to have Kerri Kearney as our first returning writer to the Projectkin Members’ Corner.
Another returning writer (coming up in this cohort) suggested a special name to celebrate this Projectkinship.... suggestions?
This is great Kerri. I love how you said stories are a source of understanding. And that they communicate beliefs, values and human learning. The story that unfolds below that was a powerful example. What a creative way to teach children about adoption through a children’s book. And to let their understanding of the concept also unfold over time as they ask questions as they get older is an incredible teaching technique. Was that anticipated?

Writing the books for your children was such an excellent idea!
