I write open letters to my children, Kavya and Anand, in my journal; I’m collecting them here, so that they’re easy for them to find when they’re older, and for you to read now. A lot of stress, a lot of joy. Hoping this is of interest to parents, potential parents, and non-parents alike.
Below is a full list of all the Letters to My Children entries, in order. In most browsers, you can open them in new tabs by right-clicking. Alternatively, to read through the whole series without having to click to open each page, visit the category page.
