I went back to college yesterday. I am taking a writing course this semester at Mt Hood Community college. The course is titled "Writing your Memoirs." I had previously started writing a few stories for my family but the project got stalled-mostly to my lack of committment to get it done.
When I saw the course offering I thought it might give me the motivation I needed. I think it will.
My first assignment for next week it to write my first memory. Quite a task that has really got me thinking. That little boy you see up there is me. REALLY?! I told you I was cute.
The trouble is I don't remember much about him at all. Because of the trauma in my early years I have very little memories of those years and most of them are painful. I have long since resolved all that by God's Grace and love. I guess I will have to write about that.

Grandpa, I can't wait for the complete memiors of Bob Moffat. Pretty sure that you will need to initially have ~60 copies ready to go.
love Greg
Wow Grandpa, back to school?!! Good for you. :) The class actually sounds fun and it should definitely give you motivation. I will be praying for you as you write about your first memory.
Love you so much,
Jaime

I love that you're taking a class, you always amaze me and this does as well. I admire you for doing that, your writing a memoir will be something that I will love to read. God bless you on this journey through your life, what a neat opportunity.
Love you,
