A walkthrough
Open the first page.
Each spread is a quiet place to hold one small first: space to write, space to leave blank, and a hand-drawn illustration to keep you company. The ceremonies live here too. Naamkaran, annaprashan, the first Diwali. And on every spread, a small sparrow waits to be found.

My First Year
The cover. It opens to a year of firsts.
Go on. It does not mind fingerprints.
A page for each first
A quiet place to hold each little first.
Let's begin.
01
The First Portrait
A place for the very first photograph, and the words that come with it.
02
Tiny Beginnings
Hand-drawn illustrations to hold the details: the size of feet, the softness of hair.
03
The Family Tree
Roots on cream paper. A page to trace where your child's story begins.
The kind of things it asks
Small questions, easy to answer.
The prompts are gentle. You never have to write much, and you never have to write well. A few honest words are enough.
- The first thing we noticed about you.
- What we were doing when we found out you were coming.
- The sound you make that we never want to forget.
- Who you were named after, and why.
- A little letter to you this month.
