Letters to you, and what I'm learning

“A letter for the day they become a parent, if they do.”

Why this question

What you'd want them to know then. What you know now that you didn't at the start.

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 one small thing you did this week that was enough?”

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.
