<p>owlice~I’m sorry to hear you will be going through this…imho your photos and mementos sound quite typical…there is no right or wrong way to display our love and pride for our children…</p>
<p>my fridge is always covered, with the latest pics from vacation, beach trips, whatever,or a pic that fell out of a kitchen drawer that just “had to” be redisplayed just because well, it fell out of a drawer…</p>
<p>I have my three kids as little ones barefoot on the wall, the coffee table in the family room holds current pics/school pics, and a professional pic of each in the living room. no certificates, those are in their rooms, or more likely have been placed away in their closets,</p>
<p>but having had a high school graduate this year and last, my half moon table under the mirror becomes a temporary shrine right around those special occasions…it helps us to hold onto the specialness just a little longer I find. but they then are moved to the background of life as things are always in flux</p>
<p>and I’m with Mythmom–you know if Mr. you know who had a problem with pictures, there is this thing called communication, and it doesn’t involve other people.</p>
