The day everything changedArrival

What's the one detail of that day nobody else would remember?

Why this question

The song in the car, the colour of the midwife's lanyard, the vending-machine meal, the weather doing something ironic.

Where it leads

This detail is yours alone. If you don't write it down, it leaves the world.

If your child came by adoption or surrogacy

Arrival days hide the same small details — the motorway service station, the form signed with a borrowed pen. Save yours.
