Forget Photos, Save Voices
If you’re like me, you’ve got 74,872 photos of your kid(s), stored somewhere in the cloud. When will you organize or revisit them? Probably never.
I get it. You’re juggling parenting, work, life, adult responsibilities. But the small moments, the giggles, the accidental mispronunciations (“bisketti”), they’re worth revisiting. Forget photos, save voices instead.
Enter audio time capsules. Record a snippet—your kid’s laugh, a silly conversation, a family bedtime story—then forget about it. No need to sort, curate, or post publicly on a mega app.
Then, weeks or months later? Surprise. These audio clips randomly return to your phone via push or SMS, speaking directly to your future self. No scrolling, no algorithmic feed. Just real, candid, uns-staged parenting moments.
Why DIY audio? It’s non-visual, more private, and emotionally resonant . Studies show that hearing a loved one’s voice activates your brain even more deeply than seeing their face.
Parenting is a blur. Kids grow fast. You won’t remember every moment, but the sounds and voices? Those small mundane moments? Worth keeping, and revisiting.
