Something honest to look back on.

I started writing to Leo so the lessons, mistakes and small moments of his childhood would not disappear into memory.

Fatherhood changed how I think about ambition, health, family and the kind of man I want to be. Writing each week gives me a reason to stop, pay attention and put that change into words.

The letters are addressed to my son, but they are for anyone trying to raise a child with more presence and purpose. They are not instructions. They are a record of what I am learning while I am still in it.
