Thanks for joining me at Friday Letters. Since publishing the little book, Held in the Arms of Love, (see June 26th post and cool mom picks ) I have been asked lots of questions about writing letters to one's children. Friday Letters is to make the process easy and fun. You can join me just for today or come back on a weekly basis. The purpose of this blog is to help parents create a meaningful letter to their child, even if it's only one paragraph long and takes 15 minutes to write.
Each Friday a new question will be put up on this blog. Your response to this week's question can stand on its own or be joined together with answers to future questions.
1. Read this week’s question and spend no more than 15 minutes writing your answer.
(Obviously everything you want to say can’t be said in 15 minutes but this gets your thoughts down on paper and you can always write more letters in the future.)
2. For the photographers of the group
Create 1-3 photographs on this topic to accompany your words.
3. Save your letter in a place where you keep important papers.

Hi Bev,
I'd like to print the 52 questions if possible and bring them to the family table. We may try to answer them together, each with our own answers. I can easily do these one at a time if there is not a way to print the list of 52. I like your latest one, what makes you smile. I'd love to hear Jim and O's answers as well as mine and I have just the journal to put all the answers into. Bye for now, my friend. Nancy

What a fantastic idea you've got here, Bev. I haven't seen a blog that does what yours does in posing questions and encouraging people to write about the things that matter in their lives. Truly refreshing. Kudos.

Arianne Klinkglavalo My "baby" brother and his dear wife Angée became parents of a lovely babyboy they called Keimpe Maximus! And I travelled to them with our mother in a plane(for the first time in my life!) to hold him in my arms!!!
This is only one of the significant things that have happened the last 10 years!!
I can mention many events!!

A bit old school but so sweet after all especially now when most of us think that mail box is only online.

This is such a lovely idea. I plan on doing this for my daughter every year on her birthday and giving them to her on her 21st.
