We fell in love with writing letters to our future selves many years ago. It’s our tradition that on every anniversary, we write three letters to each other to be opened 1 year, 3 years, and 5 years from now. Tom writes me three letters and I write him three letters. It gives us a beautiful perspective on how our relationship and love has grown over the years. My favorite are the years that overlap and I receive 2 letters from past Tom! I sometimes joke that he was more poetic in the past, but he knows I love him more every day. These letters have given us a wonderful perspective on our lives and we always look forward to the next anniversary letter.
