Would you have chucked them all if DD said she was going to in the future? - sorry, I just gotta know.
But I think asking DD and enlisting her help in how to sort was a brilliant idea. That makes a lot of sense.

That makes a lot of sense. No, I definitely would not have thrown them all away, but I don't think I would have gone through the process of sorting them all out by category and then by date. Because I know she does want the photos, I want to make it as easy for her and her brother to find anything they are looking for.

It's very liberating to throw out those photos that are blurry or of subject matter that we no longer care about. I did that to some I just printed while at my scrap retreat. I scrapped the best ones and tossed the others.

I scrapped the best ones and tossed the others. I do that too when I've finished a project. I toss all the unused photos in a drawer while the project is still active then when I'm done I do one last look through to pull out any I think I'll use for other layouts and toss the rest.

Awesome update! Like you, I have photos in multiple locations. I'd love to get them all in one place and in some sort of order.

Great update. Even if you don't go any farther than the sorting (which would be my case!) at least they are all sorted.
