I love the idea of a letter each year. Would love to have received this from my mother.

Same. When my dad died I really did long for letters or notes to me, just to hear him speak to me from the heart, and feel like I knew him better and he was close by.

I recently got three bins of my grandfather's writings...letters, poems, stories, drawing, newspaper articles, etc. Reading through them, I get extra excited when they mention me. He has been gone for 15 years and I am treasuring them. I want to write things to my children now so they can feel the same way.
