"My boyfriend's dad died when he was 10, and it seems that the most meaningful things he has from his dad are his lame-ass jokes. Seriously. Dumb puns, wordplays, whatever common "dad jokes", he absolutely loves them. That and a focus on doing the right thing are the most important things he has of his dad's. I mean, he treasures this one scarf, and they have home videos oh them all together, but those intangible things seem to mean the most. Also, from a more practical standpoint, his life insurance got them a new house, college for all three kids, lasik surgery for the whole family, and any number of other stabilizing things. Since he was sick for a long time before he died, they also have a very good sense of what needs to be talked about. When his mom got cancer, we were able to talk about "difficult" subjects because they weren't difficult, they were important. "

A video, in the years long after you have passed a simple video telling them you love and miss them will be worth more then anything in the world.

Dont focus so much on something physical. You want to leave them with great memories. Show them love, teach them new things and just be their best friend. Be someone they can talk to and learn from. In a family money and physical items are nothing compared to the bonds between everyone. If my parents were to pass away (knock on wood) I would happily pay back my inheritence to bring them back just for a day.

""should I die?" I don't think we get much choice in the matter. "

Get life insurance and write a letter to each of them once a week with the condition that they can only read the letters when they are 18.

Uhhhh...i can give you my (still alive) grandmas idea. When you die, have your ashes put into seperate urns, and have one given to each of your kids.

I'm 25, my dad died when I was three- he and my mom made home video in his last days but now I remember him gaunt from chemo and such. Little things like a hat or a piece of jewelry- I have his dog tags- written letters, maybe start a journal in a nice notebook, talking about your childhood and family history. Things that you know no one else would be able to tell them.

Use this but provide your kids email addresses instead of your own.
