This made me finally start writing things down. I’ve been meaning to write down stories and memories for years, but I never knew where to start. Having this journal in front of me made it feel much less overwhelming.
It gave me a reason to slow down and think about the things I want my son to know about me, not just the big moments, but the small memories and lessons that might otherwise get forgotten.
I haven’t filled it all out yet, but I’m genuinely excited to keep adding to it. It feels like I’m creating something my son may really treasure someday.
