My Family Culture

My family is important to me.  My parents taught my brothers, sisters and I to always be on one accord with each other.  It was hard to decide on 3 items that I would start over with in a new country if there was a major catastrophe.

My first item would be the Fleming Family Book that my mother put together with the history of her family.  This book contains the journey of her family from slavery to present day.  The book in closed the information from the family traveling from South Carolina to Arkansas. Then it goes in to the accomplishments of family members in this present dates.  This shows our young what they can become when they grow up from judges, lawyers, professors and teachers.

My second item would be my wedding scrap book.  In this book I have my wedding pictures, my husband family pictures and my family pictures.  I have a section which has the birth information of my children. This book help me to see how my family has grown in the years.

My third item would be my favorite Bible. This Bible was a gift from my sister who past away in 2010.  This Bible is a devotional Bible for women and my cousin was one on the writers who help put this Bible together.  The Bible gives women information about different things that can happen in your life and show you the scriptures you can read to help you through these problems.


If I had to choose between the three items to take with me  I would choose my wedding scrap book.
The Bible I could remember scriptures and  The Fleming Family book I could remember a lot of the information and tell my family members who are going with me to the new country.  My pictures will help me to remember family members faces and help my new friends that I would meet in the new country learn about my life.

The insights I gained from this assignment is that I believe in my family values which my parents instill in me.  My parents want us to learn where we came from and to make the best of our lives.  Your family culture plays a major role in your decisions in your life time.
