That's wonderful and what a thing for your relatives to have when you're gone (sorry don't mean to be dark but being pregnant I'm kind of thinking more about continuity and connections).

There's a book called The Haiku Year that is the published version of a sort of project between friends (Micheal Stipe and Grant Lee Buffalo among them) whereby they all wrote a western style haiku per day for a year and sent them to eachother - quite often what they were scribbled on is as meaningful as what was said.

Forty years of saved trees! I'm surprised Royal (pita) Mail didn't lose it!

I might see if my sister is up for this, she lives what feels a million miles away and this would be wonderful for us :flower:
