Deb, I totally agree! I have not only a box of birthday cards, but memorial service programs of dear friends who have gone to heaven as well as 4 years of letters between my husband and I when he was away at college in Colorado. I thought I could weed out things recently that shouldn't be there and I did throw out some cards and some letters from relatives who are MIA, but the items I mentioned are just too dear to my heart to toss out. I hope one day they are read with my children's eyes as well as their children's eyes.
It is so special to have these memories. I was so happy to go through our whole life and seeing the loving words, sweetness, thoughtfulness, etc. The people who passed. Oh I laughed and cried so much. and those love letters!!!
I hope for the same that one day my children will find them and read them with their children. Love you dear friend. oxox
