I Am The Cobbler

“The cobbler’s children have no shoes,” refers to the phenomena where people who are successful at doing something spend so much time on their own professions that they neglect to take care of business close to home. In the folktale, the cobbler’s children had holes in their shoes because he was so busy repairing the shoes of other people that he neglected his own children, writes Robert Jordan, Jr., CEO of Video Family Biographies.

This first-person account by Jordan discusses the importance of commemorating the history of family members through creating a family video biography that will preserve and protect their own family legacy for generations to come.
