A listener with twin toddlers is writing them handwritten birthday letters every year—sealed, mailed, and stored in a safety deposit box until they turn 18. It's a tradition built on love, intention, and the hope that words written today will mean something profound years from now.
Shane shares how he started something similar but didn't finish, which sparks an honest conversation about the parenting rituals we start with the best intentions and why some stick while others fade. Then it's Good News Tuesday: Jim Hadfield's homemade Saskatchewan fruitcakes have raised over $6,700 for charity, a polar bear in northern Canada adopted another bear's cub (incredibly rare), and a Saskatoon firefighter adopted the dog he rescued from the icy South Saskatchewan River.
This episode is about the small, meaningful acts that connect us—to our kids, our communities, and each other.
