You're listening to 3 and 30 takeaways for moms and this podcast is sponsored by StoryWorth.

For Christmas 2020, my husband and I gifted his mom my mother-in-law a story-worth subscription,

and we never could have imagined how it would bring our entire family together.

StoryWorth is an online service that helps you and your loved ones connect through sharing

stories and memories and preserves them for years to come. Each week, my mother-in-law received a

questions emailed from StoryWorth, such as what was the neighborhood you grew up in like?

In the story-worth settings, we made sure that all of her children's email addresses were included,

so when she submitted the answer to the week's question, we all got a copy of her response

and straight to our email inboxes. Week by week, we got to read the stories from her life and

learn more about her, and we all commented on what a gift this was to us. We heard stories we had

never heard before, such as the time that a neighbor called the police on her and her little

sister when they were about six years old, and they got in a scuffle with the neighborhood boy.

We all had a good laugh at that one. At the end of the year, StoryWorth compiled all of her weekly

stories into a beautiful keepsake book, and she gifted a copy to each of her children so we can

keep it as part of our family history. I loved this experience of learning about my mother and

loss so much that I've decided to give a story-worth subscription to my dad this year for Father's Day,

and I should have given a spoiler alert on that because my dad definitely listens to this podcast,

so hi dad, and I can't wait to hear the stories that you share with us. Give all of the

fathers in your life a meaningful gift you can both cherish for years to come, StoryWorth.
