Jack’s Yearly Interview

I saw the loveliest of ideas over at Reaves, Party of Four, a yearly interview of 20 Questions for your kids. So cute, right? Jack turned three at the end of last year so it was perfect timing.

We decided to take it one step further and actually record his interview so that we could have the audio of his crazy cute little voice. Jim works at a video/audio production house so it was a real treat for Jack to be able to go to “Papa’s Work” and being able to sit in the recording booth.

I’ve listed to it dozens of times already and hearing how sweet and little he sounds always brings tears to my eyes. I can’t imagine listing to it when he’s graduating from high school…open the floodgates!

Jim actually came up with the idea of adding a QR code so that we could just scan the page to hear Jack’s interview. I added a picture from each month of the previous year so that I can remember how sweet he was when he’s a sweaty teenager! 😀

If you’re thinking of doing an annual interview, I highly suggest recording it and adding a QR code to your page layout. It’s pretty simple.

You’ll just have to record your interview (using your computer or phone if you don’t have access to a Jim), upload the audio file to the internet and use a free online QR code generator (I liked QR Stuff) to make the code image that points to the file. Once you save the image to your computer, you can add it to any layout you want and then anyone with a smart phone and a QR app can listen. Then, 10 years from now, we can be sappy sobbing mothers together!

Here’s Jack’s interview if your curious. I think it’s crazy cute but I’m a bit partial. 🙂
