Wow - amazing story! It must have been so difficult for Johanna - what a terrible thing to have grandsons on both sides and to be unable to communicate. I love everything about this - such an important story to keep for the future

This is such a truly wonderful story which you have scrapped beautifully! I cannot begin to imagine how it must feel to have grandsons fighting against each other!! Has there ever been a time when there has NOT been a war happening at some place in the world I wonder?? Let us hope and pray that we can achieve such a status one day!! This layout is special!

What a great story and a fabulous layout to capture it. That must've been such a difficult time for the family. How precious those shoes must be.

This is so special. It seems like the reader is right there feeling the pain they all felt with this separation. What a great memory to scrap for future generations to share this story. Having grandsons that age, I can't imagine what it would be like to have them fighting each other. Great layout!

This is an incredible story, and you have told it so well. I love the sepia photo, and the colored shoes filled with Christmas decorations. What a heartache for the grandmother to go through. Thanks for sharing this Christms story with us.

What a difficult thing for the grandmother to go through, how lucky the girls were to recieve those shoes. They would surely hold a special place in my home knowing the history of how they came to be with the family. So many stories like this go untold. I appreciate reading journaling like this and knowing the rest of the story so to say. War is not good to have to live through no matter your age or where you are during the war. Being on the home front waiting for news or living your daily life in the midst of the conflict is very difficult. You have done such a nice job in choosing your kits, pictures and doing your journaling. Keep doing your heritage LOs. You have a real talent to share with your family and those of us who are getting the chance to live a moment of your family's lives.
