You have put everything in the right perspective with that one sentence. IMHO we should not leave our lives for our children to throw out, not fair to them.

On a lighter note - we made a move from one State to another and I was having trouble getting rid of stuff in the attic, i.e. their school reports, their childhood photos, the little clay thingee of their hands and feet when they were babies. Well, finally one of the boys said "no worry Mum, I'll do it". He laid heavy plastic sheeting beneath the attic stairs and I stood at the bottom of those stairs and cried while he literally threw everything out of the attic onto the floor. EVERYTHING, even the little clay hands feet were smashed in the process.

It's only STUFF....................
