Example Time Capsule Letters to My Son
Letter #1
Dear Son,
As you grow older, I hope that you will always remember the time we spent together. I also hope that you will find comfort in the knowledge that even though we are no longer together in this life, we are still connected by love.
I am so grateful for the time we had together and I hope that the memories of us will stay with you always. I want you to know that even though I am not here with you in person, I am always with you in spirit.
I love you, son. Always remember that.
Love,

Letter #2
Dear Son,
As you get ready to embark on a new chapter in your life, I wanted to take this time to say goodbye and send you off with some final words of wisdom. I hope that someday, when you’re all grown up, you’ll find this time capsule and be able to read my letter.
First of all, I want you to know that I’m so proud of the person you’ve become. You are kind, caring and always put others first – qualities that will serve you well in life. I also want you to know that I will always be here for you, no matter what.
Finally, I want to leave you with some words of advice. Always stay true to yourself, be honest with others and don’t be afraid to take chances. And most importantly, remember that family is the most important thing in life.
I love you, son. Good luck in everything you do and I hope to see you soon.
Love,
Mom
