Everyday magic

“What is their relationship with food right now?”

Why this question

What they love, refuse, request. The meals that become family shorthand. The negotiations.

Capturing it in voice

  • ·Thirty seconds is plenty. A short answer you actually record beats a long one you keep meaning to.
  • ·Say the date and their age out loud at the start. In ten years that one detail will do half the work.
  • ·If a sibling wanders in mid-recording, keep going. The interruption is the memory.

“What's the chore or job they actually love doing?”

“What's a small kindness you've watched them do when they didn't know you were looking?”

“What are they like first thing in the morning — and last thing at night?”

Want to keep the answer in their voice?

One day you’ll want to hear this answer, not just read it. Ask the question tonight and record what comes back — thirty seconds at the foot of the bed is enough.
