Write into the Future

Why Write | Little Box of Thoughts | Wish Box | Letters for the Future | Sarah's Letter

Writing down special memories and the thoughts you may have about the future can create a unique and special gift for your children. There are several ways to go about this. Initially it seems a daunting prospect, so don't feel you have to write everything at once. As Vanessa shows in the Mummy Diaries series, sometimes all you have to do is just start to write and see what happens.

Sometimes you won't want to write a thing and other times you'll write pages and pages. Some parents choose to write everyday, others only write when they think of something specific they want to add. But don't feel everything you write has to be 'special'. Often it's the ordinary, day-to-day thoughts that paint the clearest, most complete picture of who you are.
