I was helping my mum clean up her house and put things away.
As I put clothes away in her drawers, she had stuff in a plastic bag that didn't feel like clothes in there so I took it out.
Imagine my surprise to look in there and find life long mementos of my sisters life. Old birthday cards and Christmas cards she'd given mum, primary school, secondary school work and even an essay from college or uni. Lots of little photos of her as a teenager, and stuff from her wedding.
I looked in all her drawers and there wasn't anything for me. I don't even think there are any old cards or school work of mine when I was that young, none of it was kept. My stuff from graduation is mine, she didn't ask for anything from it. Similarly my essays and work from college / uni she couldn't care less about, it was stuffed in the garage and I was told to take it or chuck it out.
What the Hell is this about. I'm actually very upset about it. I haven't said anything yo.mum about it.
