Oh my gosh! I LOVE this! I just had my baby and am still struggling with post partum and life in general so I am looking for things to boost my spirits… which is where I am with journaling. SO I found your “Letters to Parker” idea. I LOVE it! You are amazing!

I think this is an amazing idea. I am pregnant with our first child, and we ( well more me than my husband) have started a similar type of thing for our baby. I love the idea that he will be able to look back and see what life was like during the “Great Wait”…

I actually stumbled on this while I was making my research on idea for journaling. I found it quite insightful and interesting. Love the academic journal idea and a journal for my children. Thank you.

I HAVE JUST STARTED A JOURNAL. IT IS LEATHER WITH THE WORDS “LETTERS TO PARKER”
pARKER IS MY SON AND HE IS 2. I AM GOING TO FILL THE JOURNAL WITH MY OWN MEMORIES AND EXPERIENCES, INFORMATION AND FACTS ABOUT THE PEOPLE IN MY LIFE, DAYS WITH MY SON AND HOW HE IS PROGRESSING. i AM GOING TO WRITE ABOUT MY HOPES AND DREAMS, STORIES THAT PEOPLE TELL ME AND CURRENT EVENTS ECT.
PEOPLE IN MY LIFE ARE PASSING AWAY AND I FEEL LIKE I DIDNT KNOW THEM LIKE I THOUGHT I DID. HOW AMAZING WOULD IT BE IF MY GRANDMA WROTE LETTERS TO ME THROUGH HER LIFE AND I HAD THOSE FOREVER! MY HUSBANDS MOTHER DIED 4 YEARS AGO AND HE DOESNT HAVE ANYTHING BUT PHOTOS TO REMEMBER HER BY (AND MEMORIES OF COURSE)
I AM VERY HAPPY WITH MY DECISION TO DO THIS.

What about digital voice recorders for keeping a diary? It’s the new version of cassette tapes or reel to reel. I think Nixon used reel to reel. Or here’s another idea — what about a mpeg diary? A mpeg blog of yourself, now there’s a way to make a bold statement !!!

I enjoy your blog and what you say about journaling — as I journaling advocate for more than 40 years, I agree with everything you say!

You might be interested in reading my book, REGINA’S CLOSET: FINDING MY GRANDMOTHER’S SECRET JOURNAL which depicts the long-term advantages of keeping a journal.
