25.01.2022 Imagine for a second that you owned a book written by your mother. In that book is an interview with her answering questions about her life everything from her relationship with her own parents, to how she felt about being a mother and even how she met and fell in love with your father. Alongside her interview was a curated collection of photos with her describing what was going on in each. How much would you like to own that book? For most people it would be something to cherish and pass down for generations. Give your Mum an Express Memoir this Mother's Day. visit www.rawmemoirs.com #Mother'sDay #ExpressMemoirs
