Jack is 5

Every month, on the 9th of the month, I write him a letter. Sometimes it’s only a few paragraphs, sometimes I find myself realising something about his character that I recognise in me and write about how that played out through my life. Mostly I just write about what has happened in the previous month, and how well he’s developing, growing, and learning. Today’s letters brings the total up to ~37,000 words (so far). I have no idea if he’ll ever read them, although I am starting to compile them into single year entries, but now and then I re-read some myself. What a journey. What a boy, I’m so lucky to be part of his life! Thanks for reading and keeping RSS alive. Visit my site for more.
